Clemson leads Alabama at the half. Stay tuned for Imagine Dragons.

Just to make this thread historically significant, gonna go out on a limb and say that's the longest essay ever written featuring the phrase "born and bread."

Nope. Looked for it first. But then I decided rather than just posting the link to the tweet to get the images as well. It took me a minute. Then had to answer a question from someone before I clicked post. My bad. Thanks for being civil.

Even after the outback debacle, I had Moorhead at a solid C grade to this point; but the final grade on Moorhead's first season is awaiting the outcome of Feb 6.

Looks like Auburn is the culprit. There's a crystal ball for them dated 1-7-19. Guess there was fire behind all that smoke about he and Handy playing together.

Reading his announcement, he sounds like someone that wants something free. When football is done he wants someone to take care of him. This mentality carries over to the field. If this is his mentality, I don't want him. We need players that want to make a name for them selves, succeed them selves. Not looking for handouts!

This is certainly true. While most all the high level 4 and 5 star guys get some benefits out of high school, the ones with heads on their shoulders keep their mouth shut, take what's due them and go perform.

I'm the opposite. I think on balance, I'd rather have the recruits asking about what kind of benefits they will have after school as far as connections and help in professional development as opposed to looking for a charger that will be worth less than $10k by the time they leave school.

What's weird is it sounds like he's pouting about it publicly and he has his feelings hurt because he's convinced himself he won't be taken care of after school. Just a weird tone. Could have just said he's decommitting because he's been thinking about what situation will set him up best not just for football but also for life beyond football, and is reopening his recruitment to consider his long term goals and how best to achieve them.

Thanks for a civil response. Even though you differ in opinion from me, you stated your opinion with out going all "you're an idiot" like most responses you get on here.

There's definitely a lot of reading between the lines being done when all you have to go on is Moore's odd post, but that was my take as well. When he's talking about life after football, I don't get the feeling that he's exactly talking about fair pay for a challenging job. My bet is that he's not even referring to himself at all. Chances are that he wants to know how mom and dad are going to be set up so that they're not both dependent on his eventual football salary, and there are few better places than Auburn to take care of that.
