Wide receiver Eli Woodard of Temecula, who was originally committed to USC, committed to Miami today. He also considered Cal and UCLA.
He decommitted from USC because he wanted to take visits to other schools, which is against the policy of Chad “Charmin” Bowden.
It would have been funny if someone like Luke Wafle had tested this policy and made other visits and then called USC to say he wanted to recommit. Do you think USC would have turned him down?
Well, they still have 4 top WR incoming frosh this year.
I can see why a ’27 WR recruit would want to go elsewhere. Opens up another scholly for a big ugly.

Exactly why I never get excited about “commitments”.
They’re about as binding as the marriage vows of a Hollywood couple.

KAM: “Commitments” is an archaic term for the pre-transfer portal/mercenary era.
DON: “Bids” is a more accurate term… who did USC outbid?

Do you think USC would have turned down Luke Wafle if he violated the “no visits” policy? Yes. I recall that a 5 star linebacker, Griffin, wanted to visit other schools after committing to USC and they flatly told him if he did that his scholarship would be revoked and they followed through on it.

KAM: Can you blame these college football players from wanting to make money? Doesn’t everybody like making money?
DON: 90% of college players won’t be good enough for the NFL, so they are looking at a 4-year college career when they can cash in. For most of them this will be the best money they ever make
KAM: Paying the college kids didn’t seem to dampen their fans’ feverish enthusiasm. But it still sounds strange when fans say something like “LSU pays the best”
