I just read that he was on Campus on Monday or Tuesday, but didn't register or attend any class of any sort. So, from what he told Barton S. with Rivals, he is good to go to any other school.
Cool. I would think you would have to register for class to be considered enrolled. If that is the case, yes, he should sit back and weigh his options even if he decides to stay there. What Lame-o has done here is just terrible.

Bhelm, what are the chances LSU picks him up? Oh btw, is he better than Ego and does it hurt our chances w/Ego if Smith comes to LSU? TIA
I'm sure he's still considering LSU but it appears that he is going to consider all of his options: As a result, Smith is reconsidering his college options. Monroe said he's lost count of how many calls he's received from coaches since the Kiffin announcement came down, but said that offers came flying "from Clemson to Miami and everywhere in between." Smith told a recruiting website Tuesday night that he was heading to LSU, but has since backed off that statement. "He's got some time to think about it now," Monroe said, citing the fact that Smith has already finished high school because of his original plans to enroll early. "He'll see what develops in Knoxville over the next few days, then he'll talk it over with his family and figure it all out."

I agree. Basically, he got burned but he's really in an okay spot. He more than likely won't enroll early but that's not the end of the world. Better to find the right place and enroll in the summer or fall than to jump the gun and make the wrong decision. I honestly do feel for these kids. But when I see my only Tennessee fan friend, I will laugh in his face and repeat all the things he has said to me about Kiffen over the last 12 months. I can't wait.
He is not really talking but there is a rumor that he will visit this weekend with his grandmother. If he makes it in I think he enrolls while on his visit given it will be 2 days before the deadline to enroll. It could affect Ego but Ego is not a sure thing either. We have some work to do given Cal has a few teammates of his already committed.
