It's 50/50. But what sources are these Auburn mods using? Just because he filed a waiver does not mean he IS going to Auburn. He may be using it as a backup. The family has not hinted and this is all message board chatter. Wait, before you panic. Also the EE stuff is all speculation.

Excellent post. One thing is for certain, just as golden pointed out, both options are being pursued so that there is a Plan B.

Which school is Plan A and which one is Plan B though. Nobody really knows. I'm not even totally sure Arik and Armond know. In reality, there is enough doubt about things being cleared at either school, they may simply jump at the first school that clears them.

I am almost to the point where I do not care where he enrolls. I just wish he would pick some where.

I agree that we can't know how much significance to attach to this. Maybe the kids prefer ND, but they want the decision to be made easy, i.e., if Armond CAN'T go to Auburn, they can choose ND with no misgivings. It's not great news but we don't know whether it's terrible news either.

I sure hope we get these two brothers. I think they both can make immediate impact. And our Dline rotation will be sick.

So, I hope they come.

Best Wishes Armstead family, we sure would love to have you. Come be part of the comeback of Notre Dame.

Go Irish!!!!

Kiel, Tee, Day, DG, N. Barratti, Fergy, Jones, and the crew see what is happening.

The latest reports suggest that it has to do with seeing whether or not the SEC will approve/deny Armond's appeal of the transfer rule. Thus, it only being 12:54 in Cali has absolutely NOTHING to do with this.

So are you saying that Auburn is their choice then? Because if not, why not just say ND, right?

@whitneykblaine:

The brothers said the decision was too rushed. Armond will work on graduate classes at USC this Spring and transfer in the fall somewhere.

Really? REALLY?

This has all developed in the last 2 days, he was a Cal lock before that. Now you are so frustrated you can't wait anymore.

Come on man, be serious here. Have some perspective.

And Arik's Twitter account has been silent since yesterday evening. Momma must have collected the phones :)

How is this the end of the world? We still have 2 weeks and I like our chances vs Auburn. There was too much smoke out of nothing, and we just have to wait.

I can't blame them. I know he wanted to EE. But considering all that has happened over the last couple of days, it's probably best to think things through
