Larry Burton (Syndicated Writer) Oh the mind of an 18-year-old making such a tough decision. Such appears to be the case of the No. 4 overall recruit in America, Cyrus Kouandijo.
On one hand he wants to be his own man and do his own thing, on the other, he'd love to be on the same team with his brother.
He likes Alabama, but if he goes there, he may end up taking his brother's job.
He likes the "vibe" he got at Auburn, but he likes Alabama too.
He claims that 60 seconds before he made the announcement and commitment for Auburn, that he still hadn't made up his mind. Cyrus claims that it was a last-second decision.
Is it one he now regrets?
Though he made the commitment verbally, he still has yet to sign his national letter of intent.
What could he be waiting on?
Could he be waiting to see if that "vibe" is still a good reason in the morning? Is he having second thoughts? Did his brother finally try and talk him out of it? Is this just a publicity stunt?
Who knows?
It could be hours or even days until we know what he's finally decided on doing.
Is he waiting to see if Alabama is still interested and ready to "Show him the Love?"
Could he wait to see if there's angry reaction from Alabama for the switch, or angry reaction from the Auburn fans for the delay in signing?
One thing we can be sure is that we won't learn much from Cyrus. He's about as closed-lipped as they come and thoroughly tired of the recruiting process.
He either will or won't sign the letter for Auburn. He either will or won't sign with another school.
One thing is for sure at this point: Nothing is certain when it comes to Cyrus.
