Well, this is a Saturday surprise.
Calvin Ridley’s brother Cavin has made his decision on where he plans to play next fall, and Alabama didn’t make the cut.
Instead, he’ll attempt to play outside of the shadow of his star brother by joining Will Muschamp in South Carolina.
TideSports.com’s Andrew Bone chronicled what appears to have blindsided the Alabama faithful:

And for anyone trying to play the “Alabama decided they didn’t want him” card, well, he had a response for the that, too:

It appears as though the four-star recruit will be enrolling early, meaning this decision is likely final:
Reported yesterday that Ridley was planning on reporting to school Tuesday. #Gamecocks' early enroll report date? Tuesday.
