Wow he is one quick twitch athlete! He was out the door faster than me after dinner at the in-laws.

He must have the NCAA Football 13 cheat code for decommit.

Seriously though, he must have been looking for a reason to decommit. As many of the more committed commits have said, the commitment is to the school, not just to coach Kelly. Too bad but if Alex was not fully dedicated to Notre Dame, it is just as well he go somewhere else.

Well Kelly's agent really **** the bed for breaking this story. Could have been done quietly considering Muschamp interviewed and most of us didn't know about it

For an agent possibly negotiating a new deal for his client, creating a panic is exactly what he would want to do.

Someone should go on to a Gator forum and suggest that Muschamp has interviewed with Swarbrick for the theoretically vacant Notre Dame job pending Kelly's departure.

Any way someone can edit the picture from the UA game without AA?

Just photoshop a picture of Jaylon's face there b/c he is so fast he is in two places at once.

Can somebody get Tuitt's mother to give Anzalone a call?

Trattou, Omar, Burton, Anzalone. Am I missing anyone? That's an absurd number of defections to the same school (although USC is probably saying the same thing about us this year alone.)

This goes to show that it had nothing to do with BK interviewing with the Eagles...or at least a minimal part.

He probably seen jaylon and vanderdoes play together and then considered redfield and others and quickly realized he may just be a solid starter on a #1 defense. Good luck Alex . We just saved a lot of hand holding and cuddling that would have led to an eventual transfer. It is painful now but we are better off. A lesson I learned this year with lynch. Go Irish !

@KeithArnoldNBC: If you see a dapper man on the dark streets of Wyomissing, PA at 4am, don't be alarmed. He's just there to bring a confused young man home.

...and from JO

@J_Walls: Have fun at Florida bro..... Glad I'm more mature then some people! Sticking by my dudes @Mheuerman9 @DevinButler_7 and the rest of the mob

...and from DB

@DevinButler_7: Honestly just lost a lot of respect for this dude.. Thought it was a close friendship

From B/R FWIW


One Irish fan says the commitment should have been to the program, not the head coach.

@alexanzalone_24 you don't commit to a coach you commit to a program get #gatorchomped
— Rob Casey (@TheRealBobCasey) January 10, 2013

Somehow Manti Te'o got brought into the conversation, but it sure didn't involve any Heisman Trophies.

@alexanzalone_24 u couldn't even hold manti's jock strap
— Sean Griffin (@SeanDGriffin) January 10, 2013

Stephen Kaplachinski believes that once you make a commitment, you stick by it.

@alexanzalone_24 biggest mistake of your young career.When u grow up you will learn what integrity means. Sad.
— Stephen Kaplachinski (@Trek21) January 10, 2013

Anzalone has his character questioned by another Irish fan:

@Oalexanzalone_24 if it's true, u have no backbone. None. No one can rely on someone that does this @ the last minute.
— Actor Danny Hayden (@DannyHaydenSAG) January 10, 2013

But not all Notre Dame supporters are big meanies:

@alexanzalone_24 Sorry to see you go. Don't let them get to you. This is your life. UF is a fine school, just make sure you get that degree
— Paul Nelson (@NDIrishManiac) January 10, 2013

There is one Notre Dame fan who may be ready to throw in the towel after hearing the news:

I hate being an #NDFB fan. Stupid @coachbriankelly and @alexanzalone_24 hurting my feelings. #pissy
— Lauren_Flan (@Lauren_Flan) January 10, 2013

Someone decided to remind Anzalone that Florida didn't do so well in its BCS bowl, either:

@alexanzalone_24 wow..Great show of character from you..Florida looking Better than ND after they got smacked by a lesser team in Louisville
— Michael Jenoff (@MJenoff) January 10, 2013

Shots fired!

@alexanzalone_24 What the hell man? Seriously, u r just going to bail on ND Nation? A degree from FL is like a degree from a JUCO. #Pathetic
— Brent Anderson™ (@BA3511) January 10, 2013

Louie thinks that Anzalone won't be able to hack it in the competitive SEC:

@alexanzalone_24 Good luck bud. SEC talent is going to run you out the building and Scout Team is your new home
— Louie Ruszkowski (@LouieRutz) January 10, 2013

Could the four-star player really have changed his mind that much?

Even Brett Favre is tired of hearing about @alexanzalone_24 's recruitment on ESPN.
— The Duke (@SonofaM1tch) January 10, 2013

It is so tough being a top recruit these days:

@alexanzalone_24 i think I'm going to OSU nah I'm going to ND but maybe UF no ND I'm done.. then UF. What a clown get over yourself
— Chris Amos (@chrisamos22) January 10, 2013

Could Te'o save the day?

@mteo_5 please get @alexanzalone_24to change his mind! Your tough enough to replace as it is #GoIrish
— Brendan Murnane (@What_Red_Thinks) January 10, 2013

And the tweet of the day goes to...

@alexanzalone_24 i'd hate to be behind you in a drive thru...you'd change your mind three times before you get to the window
— Thomas Cory (@tcory42685) January 10, 2013

It will be interesting to see if this commitment is the one that finally sticks for Anzalone.

Analzone is a good player, but seems easily swayed. Whatever. I won't lose any sleep over him.

Unfortunalty this kid and his parents lack integrity ! As a man in life you have two things your word and your balls! Apparently Alex has not been taught this lesson. I blame his parents for allowing his whole recruiting process to become such a joke. Oh well next man in!
