l of the guys at A&M is special. I love Coach Fish, whatever move he decides to make I hold heartedly support. But with that being said I am still currently committed but I will be visiting other schools.

My commitment is really on the edge right now, man. I don't know how it's going to be without Jimbo, man. The whole program might change.

Just not the news u want to hear as a recruit.

WOW. You already know that was my school of choice growing up. It’s another reason why I don’t want to rush the process. Once I commit I’m committed.

Just surprised and wondering how that will affect the rest of the team and coaching staff.

I’m dumbfounded. That’s going to be a whole new coaching staff.

I’m still committed but I’m recruitment is open.

Man, that’s crazy. Really nothing much I can say. We will just have to find out on Jan 6th when I make my decision.

It's crazy but it's business. I kind of expected that. Not really (does it affect his commitment).

Not sure. I'm still trying to process everything.

Coach Fisher getting fired does suck. I definitely looked at him as more than a coach. At the same time, though, coach Fisher wasn't the only person on the staff I had a great relationship with. I have great relationships with a lot of people on the staff so I won't be making any big decisions yet. I am still committed to Texas A&M but my recruitment is still open.
