Thomas' online exchange with a fan on Thursday night.

Oxford running back Racean 'Roc' Thomas may have more fans guessing as to where he will play his college football than any other high-profile recruit in the state.

The four-star prospect, once thought to be an Alabama lean, may now be favoring Auburn (well, as the "Crystal Ball" expert predictions at 247Sports say.)

In fact, Thomas holds offers from so many more top-notch programs, (Georgia, LSU, Oregon, Miami, USC) he may as well have his pick of any school he wants to go to.



As of late, Thomas has rarely given interviews and has kept his college decision fairly close to his chest, leaving sportswriters and fans alike guessing where he could end up.



On Thursday night, an apparent Alabama fan using the social Q&A website Ask.fm questioned why Thomas would pick the Tigers over the Tide.



The response from Thomas (as shown in the picture to the right) follows:



"I don't think you get it. I earned the opportunity, the offers, the choices. So I can decide wherever whether its auburn bama or ITT tech! I'm not here to make you or any other fan happy. My goal is to put a smile on my FAMILYS' face !"

Just to be clear, Tech fans -- Thomas later replied "no" to another question:

"Are you considering ITT Tech?"

If the evidence online is any indication, it appears the speculation on Thomas isn't slowing down any time soon. Cast your vote in our poll and let us know what you think in the comments below
