    Melvin Swift and X part ways

    "@BSnowScout: Per sources Xavier and Melvin Swift have parted ways, no longer to be considered a commitment."

    On August 12th Melvin tweeted that he was officially committed to X. Guess not. He does have a kid on the way so I wonder if that has something to do with the decision.

    I guess it's hard to be surprised. Something has seemed kind of weird with Swift's commitment for a while. This sucks, though.

    Granted, the way this is all worded makes it sound like the decision is either coming from Xavier or is mutual (whatever that might mean).

    Agreed. Bet he winds up at a Texas school. Teenagers with children on the way and moving cross country doesn't seem like a good idea.

    Hmm, maybe it is coming from X:

    I obviously don't have any insider info or anything but I kind of got the feeling that this was going to happen even before the having a kid thing sprung up. Don't think the current staff was as high on him as Ashley Howard was...

    If it wasn't his decision, and he found out that he was "uncommited" from Xavier any way other than a conversation with Coach Mack, that's pretty fucked up.

    Not to say that's what I believe happened, of course.

    How many Xaviers did he commit to? Maybe that is the problem...

    Melvin is now tweeting that they "had to drop his scholarship".

    Yeah, that's pretty messed up.
