at some point. Obviously the early out of state commits of late have not panned out. Tell me what's different about the Randle situation.

(Hopefully this post doesnt come off negative, its not intended that way). Guy looks like a machine on film, a freaking LB that returns punts and plays WR sometimes....

LSU has always done well in SE. Texas. Houston has a ton of LSU fans. No early offer from UT and from what I've read they have bigger fish on their boards. Don't let Hunter, Davis and Marsh scare you off from a guy from Houston. Also add in fits perfectly with Chavis and possible early playing time.

Im not saying he wont. im only saying that he wont be the first early oos commit to stay. It goes both ways sometimes. We have had in state recruits decommit also. It happens every year.

Hopefully we've learned a little lesson from last year's out of state players who de-committed. I'm hoping the staff has geared up for that and taken all of that into consideration when talking to these kids. From what I've read, Randle has really liked LSU for a long time and that may be different than what happened with Davis in that Texas was Davis' dream school. He also didn't get an offer until late which may be different as well because I've read that Randle may receive an offer from Texas at their next junior day. If he de-commits and goes with Texas it might happen much earlier and that would give us plenty of time to focus on other players. But, here's hoping that he sticks to his commitment!!

You mean like the 4 and 5 star Texas boys, Shepard, Loston, Lowe and Brockers?

You are one really negative SOB -- SE Texas has always been an LSU hotbed -- Addai, Faneca, #4 Charles Alexander, Tolliver. Tell me why you think he will de-commit.

15 out of staters did not decommit last year. We usually lose 2-3 anyway, so did Saban.

My take:

-He skipped UT Junior Day 2 weeks ago.
-He made it to LSU Junior Day, which is the same distance.
-In December he said if LSU offered he'd likely jump on it.
-He's an EE
-He said he's not taking any more visits (but we'll see)
-He doesn't have a UT offer yet and was supposed to get it next weekend on a visit

That being said, it wouldn't surprise me if he switched but I don't think it's a stone cold lock that he does.

You're right. I'll tell Travis Dickson, Sam Gibson, Zach Lee, Justin Maclin, Luke Muncie, Brandon Worle, Spencer Ware, Dominique Allen, Drayton Calhoun, Chris Garrett, Kevin Minter, Russell Shepard, Chancey Aghayere, Ryan Baker, Karnell Hatcher, Patrick Peterson, Greg Shaw, Joseph Barksdale, Stevan Ridley, Terrance Toliver and Kelvin Sheppard to hit the road because we lost Davis, Marsh and Hunter last year so we are only taking commitments from in State guys like Janzen Jackson, Kenny Bell, DeAngelo Benton and Luther Davis.

I swear, some people have no perspective and just wonder around in a woe is me/Debbie Downer haze.


Trevon Randle is a stud LB which we haven't had in a long time and desperately need. Let's just be glad he has committed to LSU instead of projecting him to spurn us. How about this reason, we are a legitimate National Power who has won two NC's in the past ten years as well as multiple SEC championships and have a very good roster full of very good athletes and he is needed by LSU and will likely play a signifigant role if he comes here.

Welcome aboard Mr. Randle!!!

he wants to be a part of the number 1 class in the country, that and the fact that we will win a NC this year.

The fact that Davis burned us does not mean Randle will.
