Baby Gronk's "commitment" carousel continued on Saturday.

The 11-year-old social media sensation took to X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, to claim that he was flipping his commitment to Oregon.

This comes after he had announced his commitment to various schools, including Washington, Oklahoma, Minnesota, Alabama and Georgia.

Of course, none of these are true commitments, as a scholarship offer can not be offered officially until a player has reached his junior year of high school. Baby Gronk, who's real name is Madden San Miguel, is years short of this mark.

He has seemingly "committed" to the the majority of the Power 5 schools at this point, so it will be interesting to see if he looks toward Group of 5 programs and non-FBS programs in the near future.

In terms of growing the youngsters brand, however, the commitments seem to be helping. He is now up to 332,000 subscribers on YouTube and 522,000 followers on Instagram.
