**** RB TJ Yeldon commits to Alabama (Updates: Page 21) ****

Re: RB TJ Yeldon Updates (AU commitment)

There are lots of "satirical" accounts on Twitter. For instance, "AJ's Beard and Eddie Lacy's Biceps" are all followed by lots of Bama players, but they are satirical in nature. Just because a lot of legitimate people follow them, doesn't make them real.

Following them is one thing but some I am referring to the people that think they are legit. One other note I do not follow any twitter. May read a few here and there, so I really not an expert on that demographic that does.

What is a realistic percentage that T.J. changes his mind and rolls with the Tide?
We looking at 90% or 10% or somewhere in between?

TJ had a pretty mean spirited tweet the other night about gus, however he hasn't followed it up with anything negative. Ryan Anderson and him were going back and forth, and TJ seemed to insinuate that Anderson had better places he could go to than UA. I wouldn't count on Yeldon

I saw that, and it kind of reiterates the concern most UA observers have had with Yeldon all along. For whatever reason, he has just always seemingly been a strong Auburn guy with nothing for 'Bama. Can't say why that is, but it's always seemingly been that way, and unfortunately that wouldn't really change with Malzahn leaving.

Either way, no use speculating too much now any way. We'll know on Yeldon one way or the other very shortly.
 
Re: RB TJ Yeldon Updates (AU commitment)

just heard from a pretty reliable Barner i work out with that Jaquay Williams may consider a change. Anyone know if Bama would go after him

A change for him would probably put him at UGA, not 'Bama.

As for us, I have no idea how we'd make him fit, though I'm sure the staff would love to get him given his size. Just not sure how the numbers would work, or if he'd really be interested in 'Bama.

Tidesports this morning is projecting on their Recruiting Corner blog that Yeldon will roll with the Tide. I must admit I'm very skeptical, but that is a VERY bold statement for them to make.

Anybody know how reliable the Tidesports are in their predictions. I agree, it's a pretty huge statement to make unless they have some news that nobody else has.

I'm guessing it would be one of their recruiting guys (Suttles or Ostendorf [?]) making that prediction.

No one really knows, honestly, because this is their first year doing this. Remember that BOL was previously the Alabama Rivals affiliate, so in effect this is a shot in the dark in terms of reliability.

Obviously you would hope that it being the Tuscaloosa News they wouldn't go the Internet hack route and write just anything to make a buck, but given how bad business is for the traditional newspapers it's certainly possible.

Like I said, you wouldn't think that they would go out on a limb like that unless they had rock solid info--but we'll see. His credibility is on the line. Aaron also said Dixon and Taylor commits are imminent, look for McCullers to go elsewhere, and that we made HUGE strides with Goldman yesterday. TIFWIW

That info isn't really earth-shattering, though. We all expected that.
