DE/Jack DeMarcus Walker Flips, Enrolls at Florida State

Re: DE/Jack DeMarcus Walker Flips commitment from Alabama to FSU

Will this encourage Bama to go after Nkemdiche even more now? Wonder if this will have any affect on Robert's decision. We need a DE now. I think RK will grow into a DE. He's Jack size now, but can put on weight.

Dont bash Pruitt?.....well I wont if he was man enough to let Coach Saban know after DW called him about everything, but I bet he was not man enough to tell Coach Saban......

I'm sure the Alabama coaching staff calls other coaches when their committed players call up Saban and Co.

What does DW do when Pruitt is gone from FSU when Jimbo throws Pruitt under the bus as soon as things go bad.....

You're assuming Pruitt is a bust. Stoops was such a bust he landed a head coaching job.

Oh well, both their losses (Pruitt and DW) for leaving Bama....I know Pruitt took a promotion, but sometimes the grass is not always greener, Just ask Sal about that....but I am sure he will find out soon enough.

Sal went to Tennessee with a coach on the verge of getting canned. Last I checked, Jimbo took FSU to a BCS bowl and a top 10 ranking.

Just a case of player committing to a coach rather than a program.

Walker is tweeting Roll Tide's and that it was just a need to be close to mom.

Like I said earlier, as long as he is happy... it's not a personal jab at Alabama when these guys don't sign. That's just how it works. I hope he does well at FSU. .

Said he dropped Bama from his final list. Now down to OM and LSU. Pretty sure OM wins here.

I think the full court press gets put on C Jones especially with his main recruiter from MSU gone now.

Re: DE/Jack DeMarcus Walker Flips commitment from Alabama to FSU

Hey, I can't blame the kid. And he is a kid. He had a relationship with Pruitt and when Pruitt took the job at FSU he was a demoralized. He's young, impressionable and he'll grow up to be a fine young man. But right now, he's still a confused kid. Geez, I didn't grow up until my mid-20s. My wife still debates that.

Best of luck DeMarcus! I hope you have success at FSU! We'd still love for you to come to Bama though just in case you change your mind. RTR!

I saw Jones at the Al. / Ms. Allstar game and in the UA game he is very impressive.

What's strange about Walker following Pruitt to FSU is that he somehow thinks Pruitt was the architect of Alabama's D?

What's strange is your DB Cooper avatar with a Yosemite Sam mustache.

DB Coop is kind of a folk hero around here.

Doesnt sound like it had as much to do about Pruitt, all he said was that was the only coach he was comfortable with.

I'm done with this one and suggest we all move on. Wish him the best or the worst, I personally hate FSU and can wish him nothing but failure. Either way, on to bigger and better things.

I don't have any feelings either way regarding FSU but I think to wish failure upon a 17-18 year old kid is ridiculous.

Re: DE/Jack DeMarcus Walker Flips commitment from Alabama to FSU

Yea I couldn't wish him failure "personally", I just wish FSU the worst:wink:

 

[JBama_in_PCOLA]

Yeah that kinda sounds like a Barnie fan. We don't want to stoop to their level.

 

[BAMAfan777]

I can only imagine what Pruitt told him to get him to change his mind to FSU.

This sucks, Walker was outstanding at getting into the back field in the Under Armour game.

That was the one thing Bama was missing this year.....but that's OK, we'll find another, and win 4 out of 5 National Championships.

Roll Tide!!!!!!!

Nothing... Walker contacted Pruitt. It made more sense for him. He was close with Pruitt, and his mom preferred he stay close to home. 1+1=2 on this one...

time to close this one
