Well your post implies that he decommitted just because his mom said no and it seems like you are criticizing him.  While that's possible and I understand that his mom may favor UGA, it's not the only possibility and it's a reasonable position for a mom to take anyway.  While he didn't have to publicize the details of the BBQ letter, he is also 17 and I don't think he intended to throw Michigan under the bus.  If Michigan made a mistake (even if I don't think it's really any big deal) then we live with it.

and it annoyed him and/or his family. Frankly, I think he did us a favor by airing his complaint. It's better than having sloppy work continue and never knowing that it's hurting our recruiting. Not making it out to be a huge issue,but when you're trying to convince families to send their sons far from home you need to make a consistently good impression.

byproduct of Georgia struggling is that they can sell him on "opportunity to help fix things".

That, plus co-eds, close to home, and possible bagmen make me less than optimistic.

In the end those look to be the exact reasons that landed Elliott at Texas. The obvious flip side is immediate success, which I think Harbaugh offers without question over the likes of UGA and UT, currently.

We can do better than just blanket assertions that Georgia will cheat.  It's home for Solomon and other top recruits, and Georgia is not really in rebuilding mode.  I want Solomon in the class, but I'm not going to just blame it on cheating if things don't go our way.

Jay Tufele is just as good IMO. Also I think Don Brown is becoming as good as advertised. Watch out in two years when his players really start to learn the system.

Come on Aubrey! You know you want to play for G Matt and Don Brown. You know you want to play alongside Rashan Gary! You know what you've seen this year from the D is real!

and he commits than be expecting it and he doesn't.  Regardless, our class will be stout, the team will be coached by the best and we will continue one of the best eras in Meeechigan football ever.

If I remember correctly, he committed here while on a visit w/ Reese, a visit that his mom wasn't on. I don't have access to the paysites, but I haven't heard that his mom is against him going to UM, just isn't sold on it. If we can get him back on an official visit w/ mom, then there might still be a chance. We'll see!
