    I'm sure this has been rehashed already, but Watson decommitted from LSU and committed to Auburn...Which means we're after some even bigger fish...

    Any word?

    Afraid to compete for a starting job. See Robert Lane.

    My theory is that NS needed to free up a schollie for Marcus Walker, Herman, X-man, Lavelle, an OL like Darity, and maybe another. Watson would have been buried on the depth chart unlike at AU. the advocate has a good article on this but guilbeau.

    I tend to agree with the second theory opined rather than the first one...

    Watson knew about the backfield depth beforehand, and while he didn't know where they would shake out as far as 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th string, he did know that he would come in at the bottom of that totem pole...
