Because Tony Brown waited a while to choose Bama then Adoree was clearly going elsewhere

Because they could, I suppose. They've been keeping tabs on Gage the entire process - one of the things Jimmy D was consistently right about this cycle. It was always a matter of getting the numbers figured out, knowing they didn't have to come in with an offer because there was no hurry.
Bottom line is they valued Gage more than a couple other legit in-state DBs like Donovan Wilson and Santos Ramirez. I can't answer why other schools besides Tulane weren't after him which gave LSU the luxury of not offering earlier, but possibly because Gage didn't go to any college camps or combines besides LSU's camp. Wilson and Ramirez traveled more widely and attended combines. Wilson did the Texas summer camp. Ramirez did Arky's camp.
LSU just got a better evaluation of Gage than other schools could.
We'll see how it shakes out! Gage vs. Wilson vs. Ramirez...I bet one of those 3 guys turns into an SEC standout.
