Does Foster's Flip F*** FSU?

Apparently, Matthew Thomas's final 2 are FSU and Alabama (with UM in the mix somewhere). From everything I've read he does NOT want to play out of state. However, with Alabama losing Rueben Foster two questions come to mind: A) is Bama going to pull out ALL the stops now to get him? and, B) does Bama now look more enticing to Thomas in terms of the depth chart?
I take solace in the fact that Foster is a MLB and Thomas is an OLB, but what do you guys think? Does Foster's flip f*** FSU?

I don't think so. Thomas is more of an outside linebacker while Foster is a true inside linebacker. I don't think it eff's FSU because they are different positions but Bama is still going to go after them.

Those are my thoughts, but the stakes have been raised.

I don't think Alabama has given on on Foster.

I do not believe Matthew Thomas will be leaving the state of Florida. I expect him and Kirkland to end up playing ball together at Miami or Florida State. Right now, I would lean towards Florida State.

Those are my thoughts exactly regarding Kirkland and Thomas. The Foster thing and Bama's sliminess made me temporarily lose my senses. I DO think they are both FSU-bound and I don't think they wait until NSD. I know they want to announce on a grand stage, but I STILL have a gut feeling that they both commit at camp next week.

I really think Thomas will be a nole. Kirkland as well especially if he has a good time this next week at our camp! Blow him away coach Trickett

I think everything depends on what's going to happen with Miami. If they get clobbered, like 40 ships and 2 more years bowl ban I can see a few top players that are already committed to UM to look around.
