"Medical issue"?

Apparently so. Due to hipaa regulations, you will not hear anything more in detail about it.

Hopefully things work out over the next few weeks.

Quote:Clark indicated that some previous commitments chose to go elsewhere and others could join the team in the future.

That list includes Saraland offensive lineman Lee Dufour, Bob Jones linebacker David Norris, Lake City, Fla., cornerback Rakeem Battle, Starke, Fla., receiver Kenny Dinkins, Ocala, Fla., offensive lineman Chris Hudson, Dora running back Demarcus Kirk and Charles Henderson lineman Hunter Kennedy. All of those players are committed to roster spots, but some could wait and enroll in January.

So coach got what he wanted and stock piled some talent for the future. I love it.

So what happened to Dufour from Saraland? He isn't signed?

Maybe an i not dotted or something. He had his big signing wingding at school.

I am more confused now after the article
Thomas signed in December according to the article but not listed as officially signed however Drew on twitter says he is not signed
Defour and Norris had signing ceremonies but yet not officially signed. Sounds like Dinkins, Kirk, Hudson, and Battle could enroll in January but may not, may enroll sooner.
Crazy signing day

Thomas signed as a Dec grad but was 1 course short, so his signing was voided. He has to re-sign.
Defour, Norris, and others may have signed(or not) with the following stipulations:
1) Some kids may xfer after Spring opening up schollys
2) Some signees may not make it to campus opening up schollys
3) They may get the opportunity to play elsewhere and UAB would release them from LOI(signing period ends April 1)
4) Attend school in Summer and/or Fall on their own dime and get on scholly January
