Wasn't Jimmy the first guy to say he had real interest in LSU?



He was one of the first.

But, a few others have known since his visit that LSU was a legit contender.

Sounds great. Can you help me understand how a team does an excellent job of recruiting a player vs the opposite during the pre-commitment stage?

Is this according to the recruit himself or do the coaches leak just how often they are visiting and contacting?

Is it judged by amount of contact or strictly what the recruits says about their recruitment of him?


Eta. Also, what prevents a school from doing a good job of recruiting a target?

staying on top of him and hitting him from every angle possible; i.e. coaches, family, friends, other influential people.

Coaches leak what they want. You'll never hear a coach leak (on the record) that they backed off a kid. We are all fed the information the staff wants us fed. This leaves a lot open for interpretation sometimes.

Both.

Resources and coaches desire and imagination when it comes to recruiting.

Probably one of those that lives in the Panhandle and up until the Davis kick return was a Bama fan, now has moved to the Noles.

I'm not sure what kind of response you expected after the post you made on here. How was anyone supposed to think you are serious? Maybe some of the regulars know who you are, but I know I don't. If I knew you were just a joking troll I would have laughed

You're right. I should have used a smiley or a 'lol' with my comment. I was expecting some jabs, but man, not being called stupid and etc. LOL

It's all good, didn't mean to piss in anybody grits.
