The reason he flipped? He may or may not be here illegally as a citizen of New Zealand. USC's recruiter (Johnny Nansen, who used to be Sark's drinking buddy at UW) ended up making a promise that USC would be able to fix their status of being here illegally by getting him and his family Canadian citizenships and then Marlon a student visa to attend USC as a Canadian citizen. Marlon wanted to still go to UW, but his family made the decision for him to flip to USC based on them all getting Canadian citizenships. The UW coaching staff wasn't willing to make that same promise because there's no way it will actually work, otherwise he would have stuck with UW. The furthest UW was willing to go was to just work on getting him a student visa as a New Zealand citizen.

That is crazy. I knew he was commited to UW and flipped late but had no idea on the rest.

I will donate my 1st round pick of Aubrey Solomon to JamalSanders if Johnny Nansen is able to get the Tuipulotu family Canadian citizenships

I could use another DT. I also need another OLB after one of mine last year has apparently dropped off the face of the earth.
