I am not sure why Preston Otter committed to Brown back in July and was still gung-ho in December. Then he changed his mind in January. Unless there was some extenuating circumstances, young Mr. Otter showed no class and no integrity. SDSU may be on a higher plateau than the ivy league, but I am old school and when you give your word, you give your word. What a jerk, good riddance!

It happens all the time for various reasons, wanting to be closer to family, financial, etc. It may have been due to academics, in which case calling him a jerk is uncalled for.

He is graduating from Phillips Exeter, and I believe he was also the valedictorian of his high school class. So academics was not the issue. Furthermore, I qualified what I was saying before actually saying it. So, barring any unforeseen circumstances, he certainly acted like a jerk. When you renege on your commitment, you put the accepting university in a bad place because now they don't have one of the QBs they recruited. Where will they get a quality one at this late date? And yes, it does happen all the time, but that doesn't make it right. I am sure that there are many players who after they commit, get better offers, but stay with the initial commit. In life, integrity is worth more than just about anything else.

Preston, the otter, wanted to stay closer to Michigan, where there is more fresh water.🤔
