Hill say:

"One of the turning points was an in-home visit from Alabama area recruiter and wide receivers coach, Mike Groh, on December 4.

“He said I hadn’t been home in a while- talking about Tuscaloosa. He told me if I got there on an official visit, then I’d see home again and see why I wanted to be there from the start. After I got there, I was like, ‘yeah, this is a done deal.’ There were a lot of mixed emotions. I just want to get on the right path and am looking forward to getting there.”


"“I’m getting to Alabama on January 7. I signed a financial aid agreement. I’m planning on getting with Coach Cochran and getting down to size real quick. A lot of people talk about my weight but I don’t think everyone understands the weight I can play with. At my old high school, I played at 365 and was moving well. At prep school, I played at 380 and was still moving well."


Financial Aid Agreements dont bind a student athlete anywhere.

Fancy's spin = ********

I'm sure it's legal inside the SEC

Now, is he of legal age to sign a binding contract?
Did his parent sign, otherwise?

Was a consideration paid for signing?

Oh well...it is Bama.

From Yancy:
Brandon Hill signed an SEC agreement when he went to Hargrave that binds him to Alabama.
He didn't know what he was signing but it is what it is. He cannot go to another SEC school.

Ole Miss was not aware that this new rule that only applies to prep school players excisted until Bama sent the letter to OM the last few weeks.

Brandon now has to enroll at Alabama unless he goes to a non SEC school.

Give Bama their props. They were on the cutting edge of thisnew rule and took full advantage of it.



Yancy is making it seem like he can't go to OM because he signed something when he FIRSY went to Hargrave. But he actually signed it in December:

"Hill, who verbally committed to Ole Miss in November and publicly said he was switching back to Alabama late last night, was apparently done with the recruiting process after he signed the paper in early December."

Fact is, Hill wanted to be at Bama. His family wanted him at Ole Miss. This was a pretty close battle last year and another one this year but the kid got what he wanted. Key is, this agreement, if I read correctly, was signed early this month--not last signing day. It is fact based spin from Yancy. I'm sure Ole Miss would like to claim he didn't know what he was signing but if that was the case I find it hard to believe anyone would force him to go to Bama against his and his family's wishes--after being 'deceived'.

When starting a thread.......

Don't assume that everyone knows what you are talking about. Who is Fancy's and who is Hill? It's like starting watching a movie when it half way finished.

Thank you msu124 for explaining it in terms everyone should be able to understand

Yancy was wrong- Hill signed with Bama in December to be an early entry. It had nothing to do with what he signed out of HS

Exactly. His LOI is all he signed last Feb. That is thrown out of the door after he doesn't go there. (See Liggins)
He signed a "Financial Aid Agreement" or whatever it is called early December at his OV to Bama.

I have no idea what this "SEC agreement" is that Hill signed when he went to Hargrave.

There is no "SEC Agreement"- once he goes to Hargrave- he is fair game. But the Hargrave coaches do encourage players to stick to their original teams

Fancy is Yancy Porter

All that link you posted talks about is once he signs his LOI- that became void when he went to Hargrave. Try again

Sounds like OM committed some violations in recruiting him. If he signed with BAMA- they were supposed to hang it up.

It's all propaganda. Hill wants to be somewhere that will win. Plus, I'm sure he'd rather play for Saban, rather than a girls basketball coach.

34, stop embarrassing yourself. reggie has it 100% correct. yancy is right about the agreement but the kid wanted to be at bama. the flip frankly didn't surprise any of us who know s**t about ole miss recruiting. its been possible to probable that we lose hill from the get go. i wish we could have held onto him and he's doing what he actually wants to do, but your continuing to try to make yancy look bad here is just making you look even more silly than you do naturally.

No, you're wrong on this. Coach34 is right. Reggie is right for the most part, but it isn't "fact based spin". Yancy straight up lied.

Think about it. NO WAY Hill sticks to something he doesn't want to do. You can't 'trick' someone into signing with you.

You're retarded. Myself and msu124 have shown that Yancy completely lied- or didnt have one clue on what he was talking about. If you want to see some people really make Yancy look bad- read what the Bama fans did:

I love free board UM posters who are just so connected and "in the know". The last ******* that knew **** about your recruiting and camped out on here lost a shitload of money. But I guess he was just a poser huh?

What is it with you Oxford folks that you have to name drop and claim to have connections? No one gives a ****. Really. They don't.

I mean I could name drop and tell you about another one of your esteemed alumni who is going to be in the news mid to late next year or 2014 That will make the Rosedale banker look like a pickpocket, but I won't. Cause I don't have to try to make people think I'm "the know" to stroke some kind of fake *** ego.

meaning no disrespect to msu124, i'll take the c-l, ajc,sec rules et al who agree that this "rule" does exist over ya'lls. and i fully acknowledged that the kid just wants to be at bama. the "rule' is at best an excuse. but yancy's explanation of the rule is not incorrect, peaches. (seriously?)

damn Caveman- do we have to draw you a picture?

Yancy said: @YancyPorter: Brandon Hill signed an SEC agreement when he went to Hargrave that bounds him to Alabama. He now can not go to another SEC school

SEC rules state: The receipt of this grant in aid is subject to the student for fulfilling the applicable requirements for admissions, initial eligibility,

So, anything that Hill signed with Bama became void when he did not qualify. You with me? Him not qualifying immediately made him a FA again.

Now, what Hill did was sign something a few days ago on his visit to Alabama- Hill signed his financial aid agreement on December 7th during his OV to Bama when the actual flip occurred and that was why he couldn't go to Ole Miss.

What he signed DECEMBER 7th is what kept him from going to Ole Miss. It had nothing to do with the Fancy lie that he signed something while at Hargrave


If you cant understand that, then your just a dumb mf'er and I'm not wasting anymore time on you
