VaHorn Posted August 26, 2024 Posted August 26, 2024 The refrigerator! Yes, Lane is definitely going to commit to Texas. That will be so funny. Quote
Neil Leininger Posted August 26, 2024 Posted August 26, 2024 If it makes it sound better, we could also say that JerMichael Finley's nephew decomitted from aggy. Quote

Always good to have backup options, I guess. But if he stays healthy he’s not stepping foot on campus. Many schools, including Texas, feel this way. 2 Quote

This is a better question than I think many understand. Dad was a very good player for aggy. Not an all time great but very good and did play at the next level for a short time. With that being said, Jr could have stayed committed and after he is drafted in the first round just gone pro. Why does he decommit? Was it that Schloss left? Did he feel betrayed? Or did he realize that aggys are weird and cult like? Quote
