Another site saying Watkins is going to take all kinds of visits this summer. If he's really interested in other places I kinda' wish he'd just decommit that way we could push harder for Crawford and secure Waddle.
Kid is on third commitment before the summer heading into his senior year. Wouldn't surprise me at all if he jumped ship eventually.

Absolutely concur with Daniel. I like Watkins, but I like where UT is with their receivers. Just give me Eagles, Woodard, and Waddle in this class and it's a great class. Anything over that is just gravy.

Could you see him doing the decommit/commit on a visit like he did with us and FSU? I didn't see Texas on his list of visits unless I missed it.

Also, Sione Angilau Jr. is now a composite 4*.

 
That is apples and oranges from what dillo is saying.

On second thought maybe you were not replying to Dillo.
Yes I was replying, being my best smart ass, and I don't see how it's apples and oranges. He's saying those committed aren't commits when they really are, since they have committed. So he's calling them out. Well, I'd like to know who on our team didn't meet his standards and so should be called out, too.

He will likely be a kid that takes all 5 visits and decides whether or not to stay committed or go elsewhere.

I think all he is saying is that the kids that eventually decommit are the kids that keep taking visits. I do not think he is saying that all kids who keep taking visits do decommit. A little different.

Fair enough. I get a little peeved at all the judging people do about these young men, many of whom in this situation with a chance to go somewhere they would never, ever be able to go, and be treated like a prince in the process, kids who haven't been 50 miles from their homes in their whole lives. Pretty cool opportunities and something we should be less quick to judge even if they've already committed.

I don't disagree with what you're saying. But kids who are still taking visits occasionally have their minds changed. They certainly have every right to change their mind but it means they weren't actually committed to begin with. Of course it cuts both ways. Sometimes we change their mind.

Looks like you need to look up the word commit in the dictionary. You are right on one thing though, you are a smart ass. 

 
I just read that Overshown and Ingram were trying to commit together, but he had technical difficulties so that's why it was today. What a fantastic week so far. I wouldn't be surprised to see Waddle, Woodard, and Foster pulling the trigger by Monday. Who needs signing day when you have late May and early June.
