Curtis has lots of kids go out of state. McKnights brother went to Arizona, and Robby Green went to Bama, PJ Smith went to Nebraska, etc.

There is a history of them going out of state, but not guys with LSU offers. Only McKnight and Ryan Watson went OOS with LSU offers in hand since 2000.
We're probably only taking 2 LBs in this class, and Kenny Young is probably the biggest target right now. At WR, we could lose as many as 5 guys off the roster at that position before next year, so I'm not sure why Dupre would be afraid of the competition, especially since he would fit a niche that is currently under represented on the roster right now.

The first part had nothing to do with Duke, just an observation of kids who get "processed" which happens at plenty of colleges.

I figured you were talking about someone that had already made it to a college campus, so I was kind of interested to hear who felt screwed over.

I'll be honest, I think LSU does their recruiting pretty well, but the times are changing. When other schools are offering kids the world to get them to come, you either have to bend a bit or try to keep up with them. Recruiting is getting very interesting these days. Especially with so many outside input kids are hearing.

The second part had to do with people who felt it was a bit cheap and that LSU should have given a full scholarship offer earlier. The greyshirt offer was important in the decision process as far as looking at other schools, and then at the last minute everything changed. Look, I'm not even saying that is my opinion, so I don't know why you are hounding me. I'm just saying a few people thought he should have been given the offer earlier.

So you were talking about Duke earlier and implying that LSU offered him only to get in with Young and Dupre. And by "people who felt it was a bit cheap" you mean Tulane fans?
I am hounding you because you are a full of shit, butthurt Tulane fan portraying yourself as having inside information in regards to JC Curtis prospects when you clearly don't.

You've already said in different threads that Terrance Alexander, Malachi Dupre, and Kenny Young are "not that interested" in LSU. You seemingly take every opportunity to say that and probably will continue to do so until the day one of them commits to LSU.
You've asserted that people at JC Curtis are somehow mad because *gasp* Duke Riley got offered a full scholarship from LSU. Oh the humanity! I sure hope Les can fix that one.
You've implied that LSU only offered Duke Riley to get Young and Dupre when LSU has no history whatsoever of that type of recruiting. Yep, LSU offered the 5A defensive MVP just to get some guys down the line.
Yeah, you have been discredited.
