Once is enrolls, paying his own way, he can get a Bama offer at some point

If he goes to Bama he would have to pay his way during summer and fall and would go on schollie in the spring. Would not be able to practice until the spring. In other words between now and then Saban processes someone else.

You basically delay your football counting enrollment but you can still go to school. It's a convenient way for Saban to get him in later, he was likely going to redshirt anyway.

When it happens late in the game like that it's hard for the kid to get rerecruited. A lot of times he's stuck and has to accept greyshirt or like Elliot Porter did years ago, went to UK instead before resurfacing at LSU.
