If Nick Saban wants him and will take him, then I will pull for the guy 110%. I've made stupid decisions, I went to Auburn for a girl. If he came to get a 2nd chance, then I am all for it.

I don't think you can make an accurate assumption from that picture. He was watching the game. Kids don't usually smile if they don't realize their picture is being taken. I hope he comes back. Since we lost Malcolm Mitchell, we could use another DB. Heck, let him try out at RB first. Its not like we have a ton of depth their. Richardson will be gone after next year. Lacy might go the year after. Corey Grant was at slot. Fowler may end up going back to LB. Goode will be an upper classman. We didn't recruit a true RB last year. In any case, I think he'll regret going to the barn.

We all need to cut this kid some slack! If he's visiting Bama this weekend its because CNS Wants Him to come play at Bama! Kids make mistakes, and he is fortunate to have a chance to correct his mistake! Everyone one in here that's taking about character and if he belongs at Bama?! BC is showing Great Character in coming to Bama this weekend! We all remember the Stupid Things we all did at his age...It took a lot of Guts for BC to go back to the Bama Campus, knowing he would have to not only explain his actions, but explain them to Coach Saban! Back when we were his age, it would be like us having to go over to our girlfriends house and tell her parents she's Pregnant! He's welcome at Bama and I hope we get him!

Roll Tide Roll!

Well, if a picture is worth a thousand words then perhaps this may be the reason he isn't smiling from ear to ear.

UA student, please, that's a Barner. In a sea of crimson no self respecting UA student comes to Coleman looking like that. Someone should check the Barn coaching staff bio pics, probably will find a match. Yep, somebody is afraid CNS will turn him around to the real world.

You got to keep in mind that there are pretentious jerks where ever you go.

Brent has to just deal with this and realize that this is a result of his decision.

If he turns out to be a great player the guy with the sign will be the first one to show up on fan day looking for a free autograph.

No chance that guy is a Barner. I think he is just sharing his thoughts on how Brent publicly handled his de-committment. Guess what...there is always a fan or two who thinks a certain player is a bum no matter his stats. Brent brought this on himself and it seems as if he is learning some life lessons early on.

I agree. How many of us held up signs like this in our mind when Brent switched on national TV? I wouldn't have held up a sign like this at Coleman but to each his own. The student holding up the sign did it because of his loyalty to Alabama. Brent made a mistake in the way he handled this. If Coach Saban wants him back then I'll welcome him to UA but to act like he is a rock star in Tuscaloosa with fans right now just isn't accurate.

I can honestly say I did not. I guess you did. If it becomes so personal to fans they probably should skip recruiting season altogether.
I think it's a fair sentiment as long as it stays in your head. I think it is pretty much human to feel resentment towards another individual when you have been jilted. I imagine we will probably pull off a couple of victories with him and without him but it is odd that he switched like that after having been committed for close to two years.
