***WR Robert Foster Commits to Alabama***

WR Robert Foster Updates (Announcing December 21st)

I'm glad my mom wasn't like this. She raised me to keep an open mind and trust God. This parents want to make the decision for their children. Now, I wonder who'll be choosing today. Pittsburgh doesn't know her child either, neither does any other school in the nation. I don't see him coming to Bama.

To be fair, we've had parents steer kids back to Bama (Cyrus K. is the latest). A kid might get enamored with a school for the wrong reason or get pressure from the other school (not saying that is the case with Foster as it was with CK). I think this'll play out like the Landon Collins situation where he commits to us and mom isn't that happy (I have no inside knowledge, just a gut feeling).

Sounds to me like the kind of kid that will not move far away from his family. Love to have him, but I'm not optimistic.

Anyone know how long from now the anouncement is (trying to work it out into english time) and how are you guys going to watch it (which channel)... is there a site streaming the announcement live???

That's fair, but some parents do have insight like CKs and I'm not saying his does not. I'm sure she does. I just feel it should be left up to the person living the life. CK did not speak to his parents about it. His decision on AU was a lil different. If he had talked to them about it, he may be at AU right now. I know how strong mama is and believe me no matter how strong Bama is mama wins, right or wrong.

even though mom is not currently in the picture, she definitely seems like she has much more influence than dad. understandably. but her not living in midland may allow him to feel like he can make the decision he wants.

I hope he chooses the Tide but with a kid this far from home, if he doesn't play right away homesickness can set in and it becomes a waisted scholarship that another guy could use. Receiver is a position that lends itself to early playing time if the kid is talented and mature enough. I hope it works out best for everyone involved.
