It's not just Auburn fans.

Personally, neither story bothers me. Philon landed a scholarship at a *gasp* top program in Arkansas. Taylor got a full ride to Kentucky where he'll have a great shot at getting instant playing time. I highly doubt he saw playing time until the 2013 season at Alabama at the earliest. Delaying enrollment isn't a huge deal. You stick to the workout regimen Coach Cochran sends you and take a couple classes at the local JUCO and before you know it, you're at UA going through spring practice.
Greyshirting is fine if you make it clear to the recruit when an offer is extended or when he commits, not on signing day or a month before it. It shouldn't come to the point where Saban's blatant oversigning means some kids get screwed over.
