re: Oregon Leads for Reed?

Does LSU truly need to sign Reed considering the WR prospects who have already committed? Is he that much of a difference maker?

I get burned out on these recruits who are obviously playing the field to get the best deal for themselves and their families. I understand that this is part of the recruiting game. However, I prefer LSU to sign talented guys who actually want to play for LSU and are not afraid to make a commitment early on and stick with it.

A lot of these so-called talented players who hold out to the last day of the process do not turn out to be as good as their press clippings anyway because their refusal to commit shows a certain lack of character on their part. I mean, how many trips and how many months does it actually take for a guy to figure out where he wants to attend school?

I don't think it takes that long. In other words, these recruits who hold out to the very end of the recruiting process are nothing more than hired guns in their attitude and level of commitment to the school they ultimately sign with.
