Recruit w/ Auburn tattoo commits to Alabama

A pair of ESPN 150 prospects made their intentions known Monday night as linebacker Reuben Foster (Auburn, Ala./Auburn) committed to Alabama and running back Alex Collins (Plantation, Fla./South Plantation) chose Arkansas. The pair made the announcement on Fox Sports South.

Foster is the nation's No. 1 inside linebacker and No. 16 recruit in the ESPN 150, while Collins is the No. 7 running back and No. 57 recruit.

Foster, who originally committed to Alabama two years ago before decommitting this past July and committing to Auburn, has once again picked the Tide after making a second decommitment in December.

His recruitment has been one of the more intriguing stories of the 2013 recruiting cycle, including moving out of Georgia to Auburn, Ala., getting an Auburn tattoo, taking official visits to West Coast programs Washington and San Diego State, and, most recently, reportedly leaving his official visit to Auburn a day early to take an unofficial trip to Alabama last weekend.
