Douglass LB keeps Alabama and Auburn guessing
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Categories
Alabama and Auburn fans might have to wait until signing day to know for sure where Douglass linebacker Jonathan Atchison will play in college.
Only one thing is clear: Atchison will sign with either Alabama or Auburn.
Atchison was an early commitment to Auburn over Alabama, but Alabama never gave up recruiting him. When Auburn had a coaching change, Atchison had a commitment change to Alabama. Now that Atchison is with the Crimson Tide, he said his two official visits in January will be to Alabama … and Auburn.
The 6-foot-3, 215-pound Atchison traveled to Alabama this past weekend to watch the team’s practice for the Sugar Bowl. “It was good. I met a few players, talked to some coaches and just hung out.”
Atchison still has an official visit scheduled for Auburn on Jan. 9, and Alabama the following weekend.
