I look forward to hearing what rumor this is, no doubt involving an Alabama player.
Its no rumor. its fact. Its reported on a news site right now.

Well, he did say 4 Star, so it certainly doesn't involve a recent Auburn prospect.

Hypothetical Situation:

We have an unnamed hot shot 4* WR recruit. He can't make it to campus for a game. A Board of Trustee member for one of the university's that is recruiting him happens to have a son that goes to the same high school as him. In order to get him to campus for an unofficial visit, the BoT member flys him to campus.

Question 1) What would you expect the NCAA reaction to be?

Question 2) How do you think the media would handle if it became publicly known?

Look for my follow up post in a day or so.

Gibson and the kid were pretty good friends. The friend drove to the game and Gibson went with him.

Not to start a flame war here...

But the plane ride was reported the day it happened on an Auburn message board. In fact, someone just dugg up that post.

You dont get suspended two games for hitching a car ride to campus.

[EDIT: No more responses from me in this thread. Will only take it downhill]

Michigan picked up verbals from LB Bradon Hawthorne and RB Vincent Smith from Pahokee, FL today. Both will still take remaining visits.

I wouldn't even call them commitments. They're basically just naming us leaders at this point.

I'd be very surprised if they end up elsewhere.

The latest Rivals article regarding their commitments re-affirms this post. They are solid to Michigan.
