After Griffin High School’s Jordan Colbert competes in a track meet on Saturday morning, he’s going to drive to the campus of his chosen college to reveal his decision to the coaching staff. Colbert, who is a lifelong UGA fan, said his finalists are Clemson, the Bulldogs, Auburn and Florida State. “It will probably be around 7 p.m. on Saturday, but it could be earlier,” Colbert said. “I’m going to commit to the head coach in person. We’ve already got it set up.” In case you’re doing the math, Colbert’s track meet is at Rutland High School near Macon. The distance from Clemson is three hours, UGA is two hours, Auburn is two hours and Florida State is three hours.'' If he is looking Nf for the Head Coach at 7pm, I hope he gives him a heads up. On Saturday the Head Coach at 7pm, may want to be eating dinner with his wife and family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, coaches (and their wives) are used to the job interfering with family life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinman 305 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 It was reported yesterday on the radio that Dabo is in Birmingham this weekend, unless he makes a trip north quickly. So that leaves them out of the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that leaves them out of the mix. Colbert said he had made arrangements....so I take if that if the phone didn't ring at Dabo's house earlier this week there is no reason for him to hang around Clemson...nor the same for the other coaches whose phone did not ring.

yngwie1995 2,229 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 So is there going to be an announcement ceremony or what? I know he's driving there to meet the coach, but how will they do it after that? We just find out here or on twitter? Or maybe a video conference from a nondescript room, and they pan out and show Malzahn sitting there next to him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just apparently will know when he arrives and recruiting reporters start publisizing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronin 2 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Assuming Colbert wanted it kept secret, I guess Scout may be an even less likely place to get insider information from here on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
