Link: Elijah Hood Flushes Alabama Recruiting Letters

TideMan09 · Jun 5, 2013

I have no problem at all when a recruit chooses another school..But..Show some class for yourself in the process..He's a good player..I'm glad it's not Bama having to deal with a player that's this childish & immature..Enjoy that runners up trophy every time you walk by it Elijah..

Saw that on Facebook. I take it as a sign of where this program is at. He didn't video tearing up all his offers, just the big ones. With the talent at running back we have on campus he should consider it a great honor to get an offer from Alabama.

Anyone with as little class as that doesn't have enough sense to even speak about quality education.

He will need Roto Rooters phone number.

jps1983 · Jun 5, 2013

He'll fit right with the ND attitude. As others have said, he was probably just receiving letters to keep in contact; LF and Roc are our top guys at RB. If it makes the kid feel better, best of luck to him. If they can't beat us on the field, I guess they need their gimmicks.

He plays for a very classy school with a long tradition of excellence. Will not be surprised to see an apology coming shortly.

If I was the high school coach, I'd be livid. It could affect other kids getting considered by Alabama.

We tend to do things at 17 that we look back on and regret when we're 37. Someone than others.

I don't have an issue with it. If I were a RB I would take long looks elsewhere due to the youth and depth at the position here. And not everyone has what it takes to play here.

And if there's hate...well, that just comes with the territory. Nobody was flushing Alabama letters from 2000-2006....well...maybe they were but because of other reasons. So, I'm good with it now

He made some comments about alabama's graduation rates of blacks that were much more offensive than flushing letters down the toilet. Pretty fair to say this guy lacks some maturity and thinks his poop don't stink.

I am thinking the comment on African American graduation rates could have been fed to him by a recruiter. I am not so sure that some of these kids dig to deep into college graduation rates of any race to know that much about them. Some of the parents don't even do it.

Someone needs to inform this junior scholar that you are responsible for meeting your graduating requirements.

BamaFossil · Jun 5, 2013

When E. Hood grows up, he'll hopefully understand it's generally a bad idea to display classless behavior toward anyone or any organization.

TrampLineman · Jun 5, 2013

It's not our fault he couldn't start for us and is mad about it, not to mention the beatdown he watched in January. Sore losers!!

This. Wonder if he took into account juniors leaving early for the NFL?

Saying it loud: I'm Black & I'm proud...

And hold a degree from the Capstone...

This is just a case of a young man who has been fed information adn took it as fact, without doing due diligence on its content.

I wish him well, just wish he had handled his choice a little more maturely.

Same goes for me, my sister, my father and numerous friends.

People really need to stop believing or repeating everything that is told to them.

BigBama · Jun 5, 2013

The sad thing is that this fella will probably be more known for this antic rather than his play at Notre Dame. I hope I'm wrong. He is just trying to get attention and he was successful.

TideFan in AU · Jun 5, 2013

So do we know if these letters were real or imaginary?

How do we know for sure that Roald Tosoloposoopapolatoso didn't send him fake letters on Alabama letterhead and get Rob Ezell to call him posing as CNS?

TheRealPokeChop · Jun 5, 2013

it may have had more to do with his lack of an offer from UA also note his lack of offers from LSU, and UF.
