re: 5* Ed Alexander has de-committed from LSU

When I was about 10 years old, I had collected donations to an event in which I was to compete for the Heart Association. When I decided that I was going to sleep in and not compete in the event, my father let me sleep. When I woke up, my father made me go back to about 40 houses and return the money to each person and tell them that I was returning their money because I failed to fulfill my commitment. Many of the people told me to go ahead and keep the money, but then I would look back at my father waiting at the end of the sidewalk and knew that wasn't an option.

I want my two dollars!

I have said this too many times.

Kids like Janzen Jackson, Torshiro Davis, and even Kenny Bell stayed committed to LSU until signing day, but switched on purpose to mislead the staff.

The truth is our staff isn't new or stupid. Even when a kid commits to LSU, we do not stop recruiting him. One Sec coach has said, when a kid commits somewhere, you don't stop recruiting him, you just have additional information about who your main competitor is.

If you are truly an LSU fan, you would not attack a high school kid for being unsure of where he wants to go. Its a process. People sometimes commit out of emotion, and need to reevaluate.

Is it ideal? No, but not everyone is like Ed Paris or Russell Shepard on the recruiting trail.

Valentine committed to multiple schools before deciding on LSU. We do not attack him for it. It only makes you look like a scorned b*tch for dogging a recruitable high school athlete.

I still wish him well, as at this point he is still being honest enough with the staff to where we are aware that he needs additional recruitment.

Heres hoping, in finality, he one day decides to be a part of the LSU family

Typical whining again from y'all instead of talking about the thread at hand

Yes, because everyone in this thread is wrong but you.

I wasn't. I don't expect many of these kids not to be trolls anymore. I've cancelled subs and don't follow as closely.

I was just pointing out that CP is a major BAMA ball tickler and when he speaks of LSU, it's the apocalypse. That's been his MO for quite some time now.

Lot of you guys seem angry at a 16 yo kid who is not sure about doing what y'all think he should do.

we've never heard this before ever...nope never

This thread needs to start dying. Some of the same crybabies are infiltrating it.

Recruiting is such a troll job that it isn't worth following anymore. I will check in on the major dates but in the end LSU will get who they will get.

Tune in on Signing Day to see our recruits and skip the year long dramatic BS.
