Reuben Foster, a 6-foot-2, 230-pound 5-star linebacker announced Monday night that he
now plans to attend recently-crowned national champion Alabama. He had previously verbally committed to Alabama two years ago, decommitted last July, gave a verbal to Auburn, and then made a second decommitment in December when former head coach Gene Chizik was fired along with his lead recruiter, Trooper Taylor. The interesting part of this story is that Foster has a tattoo of Auburn, Alabama’s SEC rival, on his forearm. Foster tweeted in December that he is choosing to keep the tattoo, in remembrance of Auburn player Ladarious Phillips who was killed during a shooting off-campus last summer.
