Foster, who is committed to Alabama but has been flirting with both UGA and Auburn, told 247sports that on Friday that he is "100-percent committed" to the Crimson Tide.
Four-star Safety Tray Matthews (Newnan, Ga./Newnan) and five-star linebacker Reuben Foster (Auburn, Ala./Auburn) have been best friends since middle school. But it was not until after Foster committed to Alabama and Matthews committed to Georgia last summer that the two ESPN 150 prospects began seriously discussing the possibility of playing together at the next level. The two have gone back and forth on the Tide and Bulldogs in the last year. Many wondered whether Matthews and Foster would actually go through with their December pledge to attend the same college. Following Foster’s latest visit to Athens, Matthews said an agreement has been made.
"We are having fun, but we talked last night and we really know where we want to go," Matthews said. "We both decided on a school and we are the only two that know. A couple of people are not going to like the decision, but we have to do what is best for us. "
