# 2 player in the country had to wait? For what?bananasnblondes said:
This actually was a story over on educk today. According to a couple 247 guys, Saban told him he'd have to wait if he was planning on commiting to bama2001400ex said:
I'm hearing Saban called him last night and said there was no room at Bama. Confirmed by his tweet saying he didn't know where he was going until that moment.creepycoug said:
So, then, why did Saban want him?StrongArmCobra said:
That's all straight up fact. UW and SC didn't want him and stopped recruiting him a long time ago. Did you miss the epic trashing of this kid on the Duck board by Biggins? He said he doesn't play hard, take entire halves off in games, and Kayvon's uncle said to him "I don't know what it's going to take to get this kid to play hard".backthepack said:
Elite spin zone artist right here.StrongArmCobra said:
I didn't want him, UW didn't want him, and USC didn't want him. But great pickup for Oregon no doubt. If you're in a position in which you have to take overrated guys that are soft and don't consistently play hard, Thibodeaux is the #1 guy available for a school like Oregon to get. Elite talent but the intangibles you're looking for like work ethic, effort, and attitude aren't there. You can bring a thorough bred to water but you can't make him drink. What's the over/under on how many years he's at Oregon before transferring to FSU?ntxduck said:
Not an OKG. Strongarm didn't want him.backthepack said:He’s good. Good pull.
Does Saban not understand this college football thing as well as you, Peterman and the idiots at USC? -

You didn't axe me, but I think Herbert stays, Mitchell probably doesn't have a choice and Dye will LEAVE!KrunkJuice said:

But I've been wrong a lot lately. See my Kayvon prediction. -
Saban is recruiting at a level never seen before. He can afford to take a risk on head cases like Kayvon. If it works out great, he'd have another elite pass rusher. If it doesn't work out it doesn't matter, he'll just run him off and replace him with another 5-star DE in the next class. Saban also knows he has a championship culture and the most competitive roster in the country. If a guy like Kayvon goes to Bama and doesn't work hard and play hard, he'll get exposed real quick and either toughen up or be forced out. At Oregon, Kayvon's not going into a lion's den. He's going to think he's the big dawg on campus and isn't going to be be motivated to change his soft ways. Enjoy.creepycoug said:

Herbert's gone which will motivate the others to jump shit as well knowing Oregon's gonna suck next season without him.creepycoug said:

Lol bet that fucked up their Kayvon buzz.IPukeOregonGrellow said: -
I think Herbert stays, but he’s the one of the three that would actually get paid real money. I think Dye is probably a late round pick if he goes this year or next. Mitchell seems 50/50, and if he gets a mid-round draft grade he’s probably gone.KrunkJuice said:

You've been predicting a lot of shit lately. Let's see how much sticks super doog.
He's the #2 recruit in the country. It's killing you.
