LegalEagle 22 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Link? He's missing from the Rivals list but there's no mention of it in their Southeast news section. http://footballrecruiting.rivals.com/story...&SGKey=2156 Scout still shows he's with us: http://recruiting.scout.com/a.z?s=73&p...amp;nid=3802388 Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/55567-ol-aaron-moore-decommits/#findComment-574444 Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyjeddah 1 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Ok, I understand the whole I decommit from this school to commit to another.. that's all good.. But... decommit from a school to start shopping around a couple of weeks before signing day..??? that's just plain stupid...

RunInRed 19,662 Posted January 20, 2009 Author Share Posted January 20, 2009 I think decommit in this case is equivalent to xCTT's "I resign" Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/55567-ol-aaron-moore-decommits/#findComment-574487 Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyjeddah 1 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I think decommit in this case is equivalent to xCTT's "I resign" I could be a slow learner.. for clarification though, are you implying that he was told by the staff to decommit?

metafour 5,777 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I think decommit in this case is equivalent to xCTT's "I resign" I could be a slow learner.. for clarification though, are you implying that he was told by the staff to decommit? "The commitment merry-go-round continued for Auburn when one of the Tigers offensive line commitments suddenly decided to go in a different direction. Check inside for the scoop on the long-time commitment who made the decision after speaking to an AU coach." Doubt he was told to decommit, but he was likely otified that he didn't fir the plans of the new staff and advised to look elsewhere.

RunInRed 19,662 Posted January 20, 2009 Author Share Posted January 20, 2009 I have no idea what he was told. But the kid wanted to come to AU. So put the pieces together.

92AUGRAD 4 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I have no idea what he was told. But the kid wanted to come to AU. So put the pieces together. I believe he was a teammate of Ryan Mossakowski (sp?) who committed to KY. My understanding is we offered this guy in hopes of attracting Ryan. So I tend to believe he was persuaded to decommit.

abrnfanatc 6 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 250lb Offensive Lineman = Project Sounds like they swayed him to look elsewhere so they could go after some OL that would have a shot at early playing time. Just a hunch though. Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/55567-ol-aaron-moore-decommits/#findComment-574501 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you rather the player do it on signing day?If the kid isn't sure, now is the time to decommit. Give the staffs time to come up with Plan B Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/55567-ol-aaron-moore-decommits/#findComment-574507 Share on other sites More sharing options...
runswithscissors 33 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 250lb Offensive Lineman = Project Sounds like they swayed him to look elsewhere so they could go after some OL that would have a shot at early playing time. Just a hunch though. Tulsa's average freshman OL weighs in at 267 lbs. you need a smaller OL to run Malzahn's style of offense, sort of the same deal with Franklin's.

TitanTiger 22,260 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Story on ITAT, quoting Moore's father, says that Auburn called and wanted him to greyshirt and enroll in January. He didn't want to do that, hence the decommit. Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/55567-ol-aaron-moore-decommits/#findComment-574662 Share on other sites More sharing options...
autigeremt 7,550 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 It's all part of a larger plan. I think the staff know what they want, and they do not want to use a scholarship on the guy for whatever reason.

Mikey 16,781 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Story on ITAT, quoting Moore's father, says that Auburn called and wanted him to greyshirt and enroll in January. He didn't want to do that, hence the decommit. This must mean that they think they will have takers on the 6+ scholarships still available. Could be good news.

TitanTiger 22,260 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I don't think you ask a commit at a position of need to greyshirt unless you think you've got better prospects, or at least prospects you think better fit your system, coming.
