Not signing the LOI means diddly squat at this point. He's attending classes at Auburn right now. If he wasn't willing to pay for them at LSU, you think he is paying for them at Auburn? He's a scholarship athlete at Auburn, which is a member school of the SEC and NCAA. Therefore he is subject to all rules that apply to scholarship athletes at Auburn, the SEC and the NCAA. He is basically under whatever rules everybody else is under
Not necessarily, If you decided to grayshirt, what you would do that first semester would be go to a local Junior College and attend classes. The reason you may go to a JC near home is to save money over another, more expensive school. As a grayshirt, you would not get to practice with the team, workout with the team, or even eat at team meals. During the first semester, you are not a part of the team.
The reason that you cannot do that stuff is because you want your full time status to start during the second semester. Instead of just being thrown into the wolves during the summer, you can participate in spring practice, get used to classes, and then possibly be able to play in the fall. If you started in the second semester of next year, which would be 2012, you would get that season, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015 to complete your four years of playing. Some prospects do go from being a grayshirt right to being a redshirt so that they would end up being 23 or 24 when they finish.
