With all the expectations that would be expected of him from the beginning, being such as is of a highly regarded, ranked recruit...and considering he probably was behind in conditioning as well as knowing Washington's play book, from missing a lot of if not all of Washington's summer workouts because of family issues... He may have decided, along with his family, he would have a better chance coming to Bama and being brought along at a slower pace, a pace without any overly high expectations to start out with especially if reports of weight loss and conditioning are true.
Yep, most services had him as a Bama lock so it was surprising he picked UW. Coach Tosh and our Polynesian players, which in many ways is family, had a lot to do with him now deciding to come to Bama.
Sounds like he never enrolled at UW, and was given a full release from his NLI. It is as if he had not committed to any school and was free to sign with any school that had room for him in the 2018 class.
To those who have seen his tape it's obvious that he is much closer to a 5 than a 3. He has great instincts and hits like a ton of bricks. Not quite Reuben-like but he's a man and loves to play.
