Sims, the Camp thing, and the WR situation
Posted on 1/5/14 at 8:48 am

Correct me if I'm wrong but
* Sims doesn't camp at LSU because he'd have to pay
* LSU doesn't offer if you dont camp
* Bama sees a chance to ding LSU by offering Sims and in return gets his good buddy and CRob
* Many LSU fans were not worried because theres enough talent in TQ, MD, SN to let Sims go - who in turn has a decent UA showing
* Now SN is gone and the MD sureness isnt so much anymore.
Why would we not offer if you dont camp? A late offer goes to Valentine, and he will never camp. Once I counted Bamas offers in a single year. They offered like 125 players while at the same point in time LSU offered like 70. Im sure with national recruiting not all make it to Bama for camp. Or do they pay for it?
Maybe Sims LSU offer or not would have gone to Bama and the dominoes would have fallen the same. But on the surface its looking like a serious case of cutting off the nose to spite the face by not offering Sims.
Im very thankful for guys like LF, TQ, BH and the others for choosing the Tigers. But the LA class that couldve been didnt happen.
Just someone explain the camp thing, are they invited and who pays. Differences between LSU and other schools.... Thx

He probably won't qualify so it doesn't really matter

Probably not a lot of people will admit it but the staff made a mistake. It's not the 1st time or last time it will happen. Oh yeah and DUCK!!!

Sims didn't guarantee crob or we would have offered
Seriously

Sims did camp at LSU once before and was miserably bad, that's why we didn't offer. He ran a 4.8 40 and couldnt get any separation.

If I was a betting man I would bet on this being the only reason why Sims got an offer. Bama takes chances on La kids that LSU doesn't won't or is a trouble maker.

LSU does not recruit like this. Sims will probably not even be on the team in another year. Saban don't care about the kids he just want to win at all cost.

the problem is "on the surface" means nothing, absolutely zilch. the FACT is, we just don't know what transpired and probably never will. overall, i think LSU is a damn good recruiting team that ranks as one of the best in the nation. to disparage them because you lost a recruit and you don't know why is not fair. sure, you feel better. ok. just don't go start believing shite that will ruin your day; it really does nothing more than that and some of the yo yo's on here will be spewing it as fact.

LSU should have offered Sims! Now even Tony Brown mentioned wanting to play with Sims Jones and CRob.

This is false.

depends on who you are. If you are a clearly special prospect you don't need to camp to get an offer. Sims was not a slam dunk prospect and:

Hope this clears things up

sounds like we're a little more selective.

Where did all this unsureness come from?

The fact that yall still think Sims is the reason why Cam went to Bama astounds me. Look at the way he's acted since then and the way others have lied during recruiting this year. Cam went to Bama because he wanted to play for Bama period.
