Nobody likes getting spurned. There is absolutely nothing wrong with what he did, but I for one will be rooting against him anyway.

For sure. That's a given. They will still get the top players, and OU will get them too. OU is utx's only real competition in tx...especially in north tx.

Just saying that now they r going to be involved more in the national recruiting picture, so glad our coaches and our fan base got to see it early. Sux we lose out on a guy that we really grew to want badly. Not because he is a class maker, but cause he is the bada** smash mouth leader we want/need in PMS151.

So Texas won't over recruit Santos right? Like if there just happens to be a top LB available next year out of Texas that is better than Santos surely Mack won't offer that kid a scholarship out of respect to promises made to Dalton's parents right?

Well with all of TCU's recent success and being part of the big 12 could make a dent in some of Tejas's recruiting.

So, are you saying Santos isn't a very good LB and that we over value him?

Doesn't make sense for him to "re-announce" to UT on Monday.. he wants his like 3rd or 4th commitment? If he plans on going to Texas he could just do the respectful thing and just tell both damn coaching staffs.

I agree with The Vol Tihts post. He shouldn't be announcing again, this is a waste of time, and doesn't help out Tennessee at all if he picks Texas. Pretty sure this is his third commitment, which is a joke in itself. Wish the kid the best of luck, but he has gotten more than his fare share of facetime during the recruiting process.

Also, TCU will never make a dent in TU's recruiting. TCU and WVU will be exposed and lose more games playing in a better football conference.

He is just announcing to either tell US or to his parents to STICK IT.....

Just got off the phone with Albert Santos and he told me that Dalton just hung up with Coach Dooley. Dalton informed Dooley that he is going to sign with Texas on Wednesday. Obviously not a surprise, but Dalton wanted to tell Dooley over the phone before he or his family talked with anyone today.

So I'm assuming playing in the SEC is no longer important to him? I just remember him saying that was one of the biggest factors he was looking at when considering a school.:ermm:

i find it amusing how everyone on here (myself included) has been so excited about this kid throughout the whole process. Now, we all assume that he's flipping to TU and everyone is asking why we were so excited over a 3 star in the 1st place. Lot's of people are trying to run him down now since he's not gonna be a vol. It sucks having such a massive thread for a player that's going to another school. but it is what it is....best of luck Dalton!
