Why did he even commit to ND? It seems like he has questioned/reaffirmed/questioned since day one.

RB Johnathan Ford signed with Auburn

Don't follow Auburn - is this a new commit or was he already committed?

Thanks man!! Just wrapped it up. We're having a boy and girl.

The wife was none too pleased that I was looking at my phone the whole time. I explained to her:

A. We got DVD and pics, I can watch later.
B. I need to make sure my kids future school is laying a great recruiting foundation.

Congrats!

Like I speculated earlier thought FSU could come into play. He always wanted an offer from them.

If Auburn is out, Oregon also makes sense from what Christian said. They could be promising immediate PT with Wilson going to Ohio State and going all out at the 11th hour. What are the chances he actually goes through with signing at 2:30?

Thought distance was an issue? Oregon way too far from Florida.

I could see this, I know they want another back along with Green and were going at Alex Collins hard. They have some depth but not to much with only Wilder (Jr), Freeman (Jr), Pinder (apparently up in air with bad leg injury), Green (Fr)

The most troubling thing to me is that non-speculative Christian at ISD said he thought the coach was running cover and it didn't look good. Far more troubling than him being left out of a press release (because he should be left out).

1 hour and 40 minutes.... right?

This is what I truly believe:

1. ND truly does want Folston
2. ND continued to talk to Isaac because they weren't confident that Folston signs.
3. Isaac wants to sign with ND
4. ND won't take a commitment from Isaac if they get Folston
5. Isaac does not have strep throat
6. Isaac has now announced that he's signing at 2:00 CT which is half an hour after Folston's signing
7. If Folston flips, we get Isaac's commitment.

This is what I believe.
1. Folston is ND, and just wants his moment.
2. Isaac still doesn't know what he wants. He loves USC, but it could be a dumpster fire this year.
3. ND would take Isaac regardless if Folston sticks or not.

I'm 100% certain that 4 is untrue. The rest at least might be true.

No.

I do not believe the Ty and Folston recruitments have anything to do with each other. Scholarship wise, we could take both, they are both fantastic athletes that could play on either side of the ball, and I don't believe either of them are afraid of competition(if they are - we don't want them).

BK on ESPN just stated point blank their won't be any surprises today. The reporter had said I hope their isn't surprises this year, and BK stated firmly "there won't be".

Interesting.

Wouldn't be NSD without at least mild nonsense.. Here's to you Tarean, hoping you are confident with whatever decision you make, brother

Sounds like he just meant Greenberry-type "bad surprises" though, no?

EDIT: oh that's your point, meaning Folston will sign with us. Duh, my bad. Forgot which thread I was in.
