Carlton Davis (DB Auburn Tigers)

All kids receive "special attention" when they visit Auburn; it's just a matter of whether they feel obligated to attend Auburn in response or if they are willing to take the "special attention" and run to another school.

Being reported by Alex and Birm that he may not even allow Urban to come in for the in home visit. If that's true, after being committed for 6 months and the OSU coaches ok a visit to Auburn, that's some cold poop right there. He's still committed, and as of now the visit hasn't been officially stopped by him yet, but if that happens.....talk about one of the all time "how not to handle recruiting" stories

If he no longer wants to be a Buckeye, then it just opens up a spot for somebody else. That's not sour grapes - just a reflection of the state of the program and the recruiting prowess of the coaching staff.

This

If OSU isn't for him, no hard feelings.

Gotta do what he feels is best for him.

Urban will fill the open slot with another stud and the show will go on.

I'm sorry, but this just doesn't add up.

6 months he's a Buckeye commit.
Stays committed even though he takes visits to home town team (Miami) and coaches with whom he has a prior relationship (Arkansas? Florida?)
Constantly reaffirms commitment through it all
Then, out of the blue, he visits Auburn ONE TIME and flips, after never having so much as mentioning them in any list of finalists.

Something is rotten in the state of Denmark, my friends. "this makes no sense" is an understatement.

Fine by me. Saves the coaches from wasting their time and they can focus on other recruits. There's a reason Pantoni didn't "BOOOOOM!" this one the day he announced. I think they knew then it would be difficult to keep him in the fold.

If you'd ever visit Auburn's campus and its environs you'd get a better idea as to its attractions. Beautiful place, and I have to say that no alumni base I've ever encountered is more staunch in supporting their alma mater. Every single Auburn grad I know (and I know a bunch) absolutely loved their time there and raves about the university.

I understand the narrative here, but it's frankly beneath Ohio State fandom to keep suggesting there's payola involved every time someone wants to attend Auburn. And it insults the player, who in this case remains orally committed to tOSU.
