'14 CA CB Adoree' Jackson (Signed with USC)

I think you're way over complicating things. My brother went to live with my grandmother to attend school - she was a temporary guardian but it's not like she could over rule my mom. In such situations, a temporary guardian is there to sign permission slips and act as a proxy parent but they're a proxy -- meaning mom and dad don't give up their rights but rather give you permission to act in their place. The same thing happens when parents go on vacation and leave the kids in the care of grandparents.

A version of this happens every single day when you send any child to school -- for the time that child is at school the school (teachers and administrators) are guardians of that child. The school's guardianship is trumped the moment you walk in to pick your kid up.

Virtually all forms say parent and/or legal guardian or sometimes natural guardian (parent) and/or temporary guardian (aunt/grandma/whoever). IOW, technically speaking his parents and his aunt could all sign his LOI but I would be surprised if anyone other than Adoree and his parents signed.

If a court appoints a guardian for a child then that person is the child's legal guardian to the exclusion of anyone else, including the parent(s).

Incorrect as stated. I don't have access to AJ's guardianship papers, if any, but parents can appoint guardians without court involvement, and can strictly define/limit the powers of said guardian. There is ZERO evidence that AJ's aunt has superior rights to AJ versus his parents.

You think UF is out?

I think they're 3rd at best. I think AJ really likes their track team and if Muschamp wasn't a lame duck coach there's a good chance he'd be going to there. But with family, proximity to home and trust of the staff the main factors (per Adam Gorney last night) I just think UF's on the outside looking in. AJ has family in LA and his parents prefer UT, I think he signs with one of those two schools. Anything can happen, that's just my opinion.
 
hardly a factor? she has more time with him than any staff or even his parents the last few years. Is she going to make AJ decide one way or the other? who knows but IF she's such a "nonfactor", SC wouldn't be putting in recruiting time with her thi close to NSD.





USC must be recruiting his aunt. Tennessee is recruiting Adoree' through his parents. I know which way I'd go here.
 
Adoree is gonna look good in Orange and White, and smokeygrey. No better place than too show out in the BIG ORANGE HOUSE on ROCKY TOP!!!! We want you Adoree!!!

USC is recruiting through both, however, USC is the only school that has included her into the recruitment.

Tennessee has been focusing on building a relationship with Adoree and his family, and we have done a hell of a job.

His relationship is strongest with Florida, but he has concerns about Muschamp surviving the year.

Adoree likes the glamorous life, and he's getting that in California. That's the worry, he has women, beaches, travel, and family. All right there.

It's always been a longshot for us to get him, but, we have set ourselves up well. And even if we lose, we've gotten attention for being this close.

The coaches have done an amazing job, and I'm sure some people will bash them for not closing if he goes somewhere else, and they shouldn't. In all honesty, we shouldn't even be in this kids recruitment conversation. But here we sit, with less than 2 weeks till signing day, with a punchers chance
