Vincent, Stevens and Delpit had been in Harris’ ear leading up to the Under Armour All-America Game. The time competing in practice together and bonding in between the sessions and game allowed for even more time to sell Harris on LSU.

Delpit, who will arrive on LSU’s campus later this week, spearheaded the efforts.

“We just want him to come be a part of DBU,” Delpit told SEC Country at the Under Armour All-America Game.

“We need as many (defensive backs) as we can to go chase that natty (national title). We need playmakers in the secondary. Me, him, JaCoby could be the best trio that anyone could ask for.”

“Todd would be a major piece to finishing off our secondary class,” said Vincent. “I’d simply ask him: ‘Why wouldn’t you join LSU?’ I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t be able to answer that question. Adding him … that would be great, so I’m still in his ear and I think we definitely have a shot. He listens, so I definitely believe we have a shot.”

“He’s right from the backyard,” said Delpit, the nation’s No. 13 cornerback and a New Orleans native. “I don’t know where else he could go. He can’t pull a Dylan (Moses) and go to Tuscaloosa. Tigers fans, I’m going to get him to LSU.”

“It shows me a lot,” Harris admitted. “It makes me want to play with them even more. But at the end of the day, I have to do what’s best for me. They are going to do their best job and say good things about the program. Do this, this and that, and it’s probably true. But at the end of the day, I have to do what’s best for me and what’s best for my family.”

Again, bama seems to be our major competition for Todd Harris' services.

How many can bama take this year? They are currently sitting at 26.

Furthermore Harris would encounter a lot more competition at bama and less playing time. They currently have 8 safeties on the roster with 2 commits whereas LSU has 5 safeties with 2 commits.

Why does Harris want to end up like Hootie instead of Jamal?

If he doesn't come to LSU we won't be hurt that bad by it. We have 2 elite safety commits now and next year could get more with 3 elite Corners

His statements sound like they came right out of Saban's mouth.
