This is it. The truth is our staff did not care if they got hootie or not! He was just packaging for CRob. We didn't offer Sims cuz we were not taking 2 extras to get 1 OT that may or may not pan out. Once CRob was done, so was hootie to LSU. I know that's tough for in state star gazers but they did not want him.

Nope. You are wrong. They did want Hootie. It had nothing to do with Cameron Robinson. You can argue that Cam Simms should have been offered for CRob, but that wasn't the case with Hootie. Hootie has all the measurables any school would want and was offered by every major program. LSU did want Hootie and he committed to Bama.

LSU ended up getting with a better prospect in J Adams after the fact. Hootie's senior film was not very impressive, and LSU moved on to the better prospect in J Adams. LSU did not respond to Hootie after he decommited from Bama and wanted to come to Baton Rouge. LSU had already moved on.....but in the beginning, LSU was very into Hootie.... As was everyone else. It had nothing to do with CRob.
