OL Viane Talamaivao Decommits from Alabama, Commits to USC

[Rush]

He just visited Tuscaloosa. His family was talking about how they are all Bama. They spent hundreds of dollars buying Bama gear. :conf2:

They wanna walk around Cali lookin' like winners...

Well I wish him luck but the train rolls on. Would rather lose him now than when he is eating up a scholarship.

Did they say they spent hundreds of dollars? I believe his visit was an official. Even if they did spend a good deal of money on Bama gear, they didn't pay for the travel to Tuscaloosa since the visit was official.

This is what his Dad said after a visit to an Alabama game recently. He said Viane is definitely going to Alabama. They were blown away by the trip and game day experience and they spent $500 buying Alabama gear.

We needed his spot anyway. We'll win with him or without him. No one player is critical anymore. I can't blame a kid for choosing to stay closer to home. Good luck to him.

This is the way you handle changing schools. Nothing but class from him and his family. I respect him and wish him the best.

This is true. It seems like he is a classy young man to make his decision in time for BAMA to find a worthy replacement for his spot. Hope the young man does well.

Absolutely. Classy. Good luck to him.

Yep, couldn`t agree more. Could have just taken his time, strung us along until almost the end.
Best of luck to him!

The interim coach at USC (Ed Orgeron), is one of the best recruiters in the nation, not as much on the coaching end of it but he knows all the right things to say. Good luck Viane, the diamonds from the championship rings would have looked good on your fingers

I cant hold it against a kid for wanting to stay closer to home. Good luck to him in the future. RTR
