Sedrick Johnson (You have got to be kidding me)

[wartknight]

I'm looking for his birthday. If he was 18 when he signed it, does it matter what Momma thinks.
I'm hoping we're all just getting bent out of shape on an internet rumor.

exactly....that's the first thing I thought, obviously she never read the A&M board.

I will reserve judgment until confirmation comes.

"Did the dad recently get a good job in Ames?

Frankly, when a solid Texas program whether it is A&M, tu, or tech (or even tcu) offers a Texas kid a schollie and he goes to a place like isu he is doing himself a disservice.

If he is a star at isu that is one thing but unless he makes it to the pros his cache has little bearing on anywhere other than iowa."...From Tam site


I'm really starting to hate them. I use to think they had a little class. Nope

[cyadict]

You know..in the world of ISU sports..nothing really surprises me. Signing a LOI means nothing anymore

[clone2011]

When the Compliance Office verified the LOIs, wouldn't they have had to verify that the signature on his was from a legal guardian?

WHoever started this from A&M is reading all this with a huge smile on their face.

I would assume that they just thought his dad was without too much thought. Just a guess though.

Wait until it's confirmed or denied guys. No reason to panic.

[frontrangeclone]

how in the bleep can someone mull over a decision for months on end, make up his mind, sign, then reverse his decision? Cripes! I can sort of (with frustration) understand a kid changing his mind on a commitment during the recruiting process. There were tons of posts on here about the players that backed out of their pledges to ISU during the fall... I get that, but for freaks sake, they all know when signing day is and when a decision is needed by... but to sign and then pull a billy donovan or dana altman? ridiculous. perhaps Webster's should change the definition of commitment

[CLONE2THEBONE]

You can't knock our compliance folks if this is true.

If someone's dad signs, I'd assume it to be legit. If he's not the legal guardian, I don't see how we don't get screwed here.

Maybe she knows something we don't. Maybe she's afraid he won't do well so far from home.

Regardless, I wish him the best. It would suck to have 2 parents fighting over where you're going to go to school. You would think that they could come to an agreement on that, despite what their past history might be.

Oh, it's the real thing - not an A&M joke (not that clever in the first place - just very "above everyone" attitude, except CyAggie )

It's confirmed AND denied. Paul is letting everyone in on the situation at CR. This is not going to be resolved in a day. Basically, both schools now have a LOI, but nothing is established on whether ISU's is void yet. Get ready for an interesting battle...

From what I've read/heard, it seems that Sedrick wants to be a Cyclone. Momma's scared to let her boy go so far away and didn't sign the LOI but the dad did sign. Apparently the parents are divorced and mom is the legal guardian though, which would nullify dad's signature.

But again, it could just be one overblown rumor started by an Aggie upset at seeing one of Texas' best recruits head north for a change. Time will tell...

Any word on whether Sedrick actually wants to switch to A&M? Or is it his mother's doing?

[CyAggie]

I will take that thanks.
