The funny thing is that Boca is a minimum 6 1/2 hours from Tallahassee on the best day. I know as I've driven all over FL and 7 is about the best I've been able to do on that one. It's not exactly next door and Boone is just 2 1/2 hours more, even dealing with the nightmare that is Atlanta (although I know a few tricks there). Long way to be sure but again Boca Raton isn't next door. It's all relative to me but I've spent a lot of my life on the road or rails. Couple hours more makes no difference to me.
It's also interesting how sons will often times go a long, selfless way to please their mothers. I can't say for sure that I'd completely disregard what my mom wanted so badly for me when I was 18.

THAT BEING SAID, there always comes a time where a man has to make their own choice even if no one in his family agrees with him. I think we've all been there. However, I can't say one way or the other what he should do but I do believe he wouldn't regret coming to App State. But if he doesn't, best of luck to him.

I hope he picks the school that has the best program for his major. :)

Agreed.

To piggyback on that, I believe Tarrick's dad played in the NFL. I have a feeling that Tarrick and his family will make a well-reasoned decision. It might not be the one we're hoping for, but his dad's experience should help Tarrick navigate a very complicated and sometimes emotional process.

Remember Alex Collins who committed to Arkansas but his mom wouldn't sign his LOI and hid it on signing day because she wanted him to go to Miami?

Family influence can get crazy
Based on what Collins has done at Arkansas, I hope she realizes the error of her ways now!

If he doesn't want to take any classes he could always go to UNC.

I am aware of the major he's interested in and to whom he spoke to at the luncheon. I also know that department is one of the top programs in the nation. If this was the deciding factor (I know it's not but the point was posted) then the choice would be App State. ;)

Moose or anybody know which way Adams is leaning? I think he would be a HUGE get for us, but he doesn't seem to be tipping his hand at all. Fingers crossed, GO APPS!

6-4 will be a nice frame opposite Meadors.

I haven't said anything so as not to jinx it but I felt he was leaning towards App. I personally haven't seen anything confirmed to say he's committed but I have several windows opened and am watching to see when a coach or Adams himself tweets it.

We've been after him since Oct of 2013 so this would be a huge get for us after a LONG process. The crazy thing for me is that, after watching for all these months, I am going to have to meet a trucker bringing a vanity for my sister's bathroom remodel and that is supposed to occur anytime. I figure, with my luck, that he will announce it right when I'm gone... :lol:

Considering that Adams tweeted the below post yesterday I figure he's going to post it himself.

GET RICH BOYS 5 @MockAdams11
I will be Making My College Decision Announcement tomorrow!!

All due respect to the source I'll wait until I see something posted from the coaches or Adams himself.

And BTW if I happen to be out as per my last post I'm sure many will post the commit, should it go our way. If it's App I'll move him on the Main as soon as I return.

It came in a Google alert e-mail. There were a couple of different sources listed in the e-mail.

It was pretty much a given that once the shirt came off of Meadors he would remain at the top of the depth chart. Where do you guys in the know see Adams (provided he signs of course)? Do we redshirt him or is he a potential freshman starter? If he is the real deal we just jumped up to big boy level with receivers. Loving it.
