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

[BamaMark.]

I have the same question...

I think he is referring to the Eddie Jackson "commitment", not signing.

 

[TheRealPokeChop]

same sources that were telling you there was no way he'd commit to bama?

Maybe so, Pitt fans may be looking at Jackson listed as a WR by some services and not as a DB as we have recruited him.

I'm sure he'll check back in. I can't see what the commitment of a guy we're going to use as a CB would have anything to do with Foster, who is pure receiver. We stay in touch with the recruits and keep them abreast of what's going on, so I'd be willing to bet Foster's been told that Jackson is coming in as a CB. Since he played both ways in HS, it's possible that some Pitt fans are hoping we're signing Jackson as a receiver, which might affect Foster...

I don't have any inside info whatsoever but from watching all of Robert Foster's interviews he's not scared of competition. I can't understand why Foster would all of a sudden be scared of a 3 star wide receiver who is most definitely being recruited as a CB when he's already faced the fact he's going to have to go against the like's of Amari Cooper, Bell, Norwood, White, both Jones's as well as Marvin Shinn and Raheem Falkins. JMO.

Agree, I don't think RF is concerned with EJ.

you mean the same ones that told me 2 weeks before RF's announcement in december that he was leaning Tide. yeah, those are the ones

btw, CNS spent yday down in FL with 4-star WR Cunningham....#21 WR on Rivals, #183 overall

Ah, just getting to know all the FSU recruits to keep Fisher up at night!

How is that even a surprise? Sure, Eddie Jackson was a late riser, but this his eventual commitment has been talked about for weeks. Regardless, he has no impact on Robert Foster. He's a DB. It sounds like Pitt fans are looking for any glimmer of hope, and don't understand that Eddie Jackson was recruited to play DB and not WR as he's listed on most sites.

You seem to be letting your split loyalties invent reasons as to a potential flip.

I don't recall he being a stop yesterday

Wasn't a surprise to me, but it was the only commitment we had the day he was referring to so I assumed that is what he was talking about.

reported at two of the 4 services as well but can't c/p that section as it's a paid area

split loyalties? humorous.

i live 7 miles from Heinz Field and haven't gone to a game since they played Cincy with Wannstedt. I went to two in Ttown and the SECCG in 2012...



i think it's you guys that just assume every kid in the nation is going to Alabama that is why these threads get 50 pages long. Andrew Bone assures everyone that Ro Foster is a lock so take his word, not mine. I'm just reporting from guys that know the kid and the Pitt program very well. Feel free to do the same

 

[runtheoption22]

reported at rivals as well but can't c/p that section

Rolltide_PA ... Always enjoy your posts. Message boards have a way of portraying the world as a simple place: black or white, for or against.

Again, reading what you want to into that. The gist at the bottom is that there are plenty of underclassmen there that coaches want to talk to as well. Not just Cunningham...

again, i can't post from the insider portion of recruiting forums but that is the one public link that confirms that is was indeed a stop on Tuesday. I was just replying to runtheoption who said he wasn't there

 

[bamabelle1991]

So, if it wasn't Cunningham, who was it?

My post history would reflect otherwise. I just think you're dead wrong on this one. I mean, just because I live near Maurice Smith doesn't make me an expert on the guy's recruitment.
