Title: Chance at Heisman lured Yeldon to Alabama
Post by: pmull on January 19, 2012, 10:38:20 AM
The story of Yeldon's recruitment has been cussed and discussed for weeks. He committed to Auburn last summer as the Tigers enjoyed their national championship afterglow, but Alabama never gave up on landing him. Yeldon reaffirmed his commitment to Auburn several times, only to switch to Alabama last month and enroll last week.

As reporters surrounded Yeldon after his Mr. Football win, the conversation quickly turned to a simple question: What caused the change of heart?

"The past two or three years, they've had running backs qualify for the Heisman Trophy," he said. "I mean, Auburn hasn't."

probably the gus bus heading for arky state didn't help the matter, either. 

Hope he gets his Heisman!  Wish Trent had gotten his!

ESPN had an agenda. They made sure that didn't happen.  >:(
