    Of course it is. You’re not going to give me half a paycheck just because I’m a gator fan. I’ll give you a hometown discount for sure but you aren’t going to rob me.

    Some are locked in though. If I got what I thought was a fair deal and I look you in the eye and agree, I’m yours.

    Some are, but they're far exceeded by those taking visits and entertaining offers from other suitors while tweeting out 100% locked in. I just don't really like it when someone is pissing on my leg and telling me that its just raining.

    Must be an Alabama thing.

    Alabama Crimson Tide but their mascot is an elephant.

    Just for fun, if you know any Bama fans, ask them why their mascot is an elephant.

    These kids are getting paid to take visits. That’s why they keep visiting even though they say they are solid with their commitment.

    I hope that's not true. If it is true, it definitely is an NCAA VIOLATION...right?

    5 stars being paid big dollars. When you want top 100 players, you have to have a NIL budget that can pay more than Texas, TAM, Oklahoma, Auburn, Bama, USC, …. They will come calling till signing day and then every year thereafter via transfer portal.

    Kids are getting paid big bucks just to visit. Pretty commonplace now

    If I owned a car dealership , could I not pay Lagway to show his face at the school my buyers support? It’s all bs, just make it all legal. It’s a really dumb charade that has been going on for decades.
