Recruit flips coin to announce he's signing with Texas (Video)
Chris Warren apparently viewed his college choices as a 50/50 proposition and had no overwhelming desire for either option.
The four-star running back from Rockwall, Texas, was down to Washington and Texas for where he'd play football. He said he chose the Longhorns on National Signing Day because of the flip of a coin, which he performed on stage at his signing ceremony.
He said after his ceremony that the coin flip was real.
Warren said the coin flip was a real thing. If it landed tails? "I'd be wearing purple and gold right now."

To help prove it, there was Washington stuff ready if the coin had landed on the other side.

It's certainly a unique way to pick a school, and if Warren is truly serious about the coin flip deciding his choice, we applaud the authenticity. We're not a fan of prolonged awkward fake drama during signing ceremonies. Be original, be efficient and be authentic. Warren looks like he was all three of those on Wednesday.
