FYI, Blake Sims ("One of the top Athletes in the Southeast"), has re-committed to Alabama. Just goes to show you how fucked up recruiting can be sometimes. The kid decommits after a 7 hour in-home visit from Kiffin, then Kiffin hauls ass. An excellent point why a kid should commit to play for a school, and not necessarily to a coach.
Yup...you could see this coming, I wonder what was promised to him and his father by Coach Kiffin?  Also, did Juwan James enroll at UT?

Per James himself, his mother was en route to pick him up from UT the night Kiffin bolted. UT is making the case that if they were on campus at 12:01, then they are considered "enrolled". The early enrollees are making the case that they never went to their first class on that first day, so they are not bound by the transfer rule. I think its safe to say he never plays for UT. The NCAA will certainly grant these kids waivers since the coach bolted literally 3 hours before the day which classes started. Right now kids like James are simply trying to avoid going through the waiver process with the NCAA.

The words of the Crypt Keeper is ringing true...Damn, I didn't think I'd ever post that.
