I think Foster will sign with Auburn in the end. They already call him Tray Blackmon Jr.
They can call him whatever they want, but his family is huge UA fans along with him. You are from the state and how many kids from a UA family sign with AU or vice versa. Heck Kwon could of had a full scholly to AU but went to LSU instead when UA only offered him a grayshirt and he would have done great in AUs defense.. Remember Foster and his family are originally from AL.
Tell that to Yeldon.
I didn't mean Auburn people call him that, I meant La Grange people do. And that is a very pro Auburn area. Only about 30 minutes from here.
It will be interesting.
Also though him and his family neither are from either of those 2 areas. Foster is more of a lock to the class than E Williams was to last and more of a recrutier than G Smith. I very seldom if ever call a kid a lock but I will with him.
Below are some of the notable names UT is recruiting.
#15 - E.J. Levenberry
#27 - Ethan Pocic
#33 - Montravius Adams
#34 - Jaylon Smith
#43 - Henry Poggi
#44 - Mike McCray
#50 - Garrett Sickels
#56 - Mackensie Alexander (UT Commit)
#64 - Derrick Green
#88 - Johnny O'Neal
#91 - Carl Lawson
#96 - Jake Butt
I can't. I actually donate to VASF. I get a notice every year. It is forbidden by the NCAA. Technically I'm a donor. Not Haslam, but who is? I give a lot, as much as I can afford.

At the moment I think Foster sticks with his commitment to Alabama but AU is gonna go as hard as possible for this kid over the next year. Look how many times Foster has already visited AU.
Pro's for AU:
1.DEPTH at LB for AU
2.Location Lagrange, GA! Heavy AU area.
3.Quan Bray being AU.
4.Brian VonGorder recruiting the GA area. (VonGorder in GA is like Saban in Alabama)
After all that I still think his family and his love for UA gets him to turdtown BUT if he keeps flirting just like Yeldon did we might have a chance. AU will be bigger competition for this signature than UGA. :twocents:
Pro's for UA
1.We lose 2 starting LBs next year to the NFL. What is that 5 posiible 1st rd LBs in 4 years.
2.Every year since Saban has been here a true freshman LB has made the starting lineup. Depth will not be an issue for him
3. Foster is good enough no matter where he goes he will play as a freshman
4. He is not from LaGrange so not worried about the pressure
5. Been to UA more than enough times to keep me happy
6. Does not recruit players to any other school except UA
7. Saban and Smart now own GA for recruits 8)
Anything can happen and yes it is a long way off from NSD, but everyone will chase him until than and every team site will report some positive in their favor, but this one I have little concern until he is quoted saying different.
If Smart ever left for another job, would it hurt Bama's recruiting?

Not really because it does not matter who may be the recruiter for an area. Because once a kid shows interest, especially someone on the level of Foster or Nkemdiche, Saban takes over. You ever notice most of the time a recruit when he commits to UA usually only Saban is the one named for recruiting him. Why they say Saban is such a workaholic because he spends so much time as a recruiter, where alot staffs have the assistants do the majority of the recruiting. I am sure it may have a few pause but Saban would just replace him with someone equal or better.
