I don't understand why he bothered to "commit" to Tennessee if he's still seriously considering other options. Why not wait until you're sure of your choice and don't want to take trips to other schools before committing?

I hope he didn't commit to just save a spot for himself....

I know we need like 5 stud DT's yesterday, and excuse my ignorance, but is this a guy I should be mad about losing if he wanders away? DT or no?

almost every player does this.. they just are not as open about it. Would you not take your official visits? Free Food, Good travel, Meet good people, Good looking girls, cheered by people on way to stadium... did I mention more free food. I'd do it even if I knew I was going to one specific school. But who knows.. maybe he does change his mind.. maybe Santos committs to AM and Humphries to UF... then they visit here and we get them to change... I'd love that
