they're going to say they didn't want him anyways, that he's not good enough to play there... :crazy:


What's funny is they haven't heard this news yet. I just checked their board and they are still praising him.

I wanted to post the ajc link and witness the reaction but my membership was banned during the CLT "discussion"!

From the AJC:

Lowndes defensive back Greg Reid had a whirlwind day on Tuesday, which included the surprising decision to eliminate Florida from his list of finalists.

Reid, the AJC’s Player of the Year, said that now that he had a couple days to think about last weekend’s official visit to Florida, he really didn’t enjoy it.

“It didn’t feel like home anymore,” Reid told the AJC on late Tuesday night. “I wish the Gators the best. It’s just not the place for me.”

Things are changing so quickly for Reid that he said there was only three things he knows for sure: Florida State is one of his finalists, he will take an official visit to UGA on Jan. 30, and he will announce a college decision on signing day (Feb. 4).

In another turn of events, Reid said he will likely visit Tennessee rather than Alabama this weekend. “They [Tennessee] have been with me longer than Alabama.”

that is awesome news. I wish we had his last visit though.

I sent the article to my lone bammer friend, this was his reply: " He probably wears some kind of a helmet off the field too."

typical.

Reid is a baller. I bet he could start as a freshman. He had 2 picks in the UA game. Berry like ball skills...

Lowndes defensive back Greg Reid had a whirlwind day on Tuesday, which included the surprising decision to eliminate Florida from his list of finalists.

Reid, the AJC&#8217;s Player of the Year, said that now that he had a couple days to think about last weekend&#8217;s official visit to Florida, he really didn&#8217;t enjoy it.

&#8220;It didn&#8217;t feel like home anymore,&#8221; Reid told the AJC on late Tuesday night. &#8220;I wish the Gators the best. It&#8217;s just not the place for me.&#8221;

Things are changing so quickly for Reid that he said there was only three things he knows for sure: Florida State is one of his finalists, he will take an official visit to UGA on Jan. 30, and he will announce a college decision on signing day (Feb. 4).

In another turn of events, Reid said he will likely visit Tennessee rather than Alabama this weekend. &#8220;They [Tennessee] have been with me longer than Alabama.&#8221;

Also, Florida State, Auburn and Alabama sent coaches to meet with Reid on Tuesday. Reid said Auburn &#8220;is growing on me more every day&#8221; but has yet to agree to take an official visit with Tigers.

What happened with Florida? Here&#8217;s the long version: Reid committed to Florida nearly one year ago, then backed off it earlier this month because he felt he rushed his initial decision.

Unfortunately for Florida, Reid played a few days later in the Under Armour all-star game, winning defensive MVP honors with two interceptions. Reid&#8217;s life hasn&#8217;t been the same since, with countless colleges traveling to Valdosta to enter the recruiting sweepstakes.

Reid said Florida coach Urban Meyer was upset during last weekend&#8217;s official visit, and let him know about it. &#8220;He asked &#8216;Where were all these other schools before the Under Armour game? Did they even know who Greg Reid was as a sophomore and junior like we [Florida] did?&#8217; [Meyer] spoke in a very powerful [tone].&#8221;

However, Meyer wasn&#8217;t too torn up to rescind the scholarship offer, and tried to get him to commit again before leaving campus on Sunday, according to Reid. But after having a couple of days to reflect, Reid decided to eliminate Florida.
