So Rod the Bod to CC and 2020, Ish now free to go wherever he wants?

Is this legit? Or some troll spewing garbage?

I'm honestly fine with this. Getting Ika softens the blow tremendously and we have 3 weeks to go HAM after our remaining DL targets. It also frees up the Rodney scholarship to maybe take a chance on a grade risk (Parker/Pickens) and Hampton.

It's been time to drop Ish for quite some time anyway. When we offered Rod because Ish said that was what he needed to see to commit, but then still wouldn't commit... it told the whole story right then and there. He was never coming to LSU no matter what we did.

Ish has big potential but there are several other guys still on our radar that have lower ceilings but are more developed right now. Get two of them. Rod wasn't worth wasting a scholly. If nobody is available on NSD to take the spot set aside for Rod, then use the spot on a transfer or save it for next year.

There is a reason my comments on Sopsher over the last year has always included the statement "you guys do this to yourselves every year".

The reason I say that is because you guys (not you Egg) do this to yourselves every year. EVERY SINGLE YEAR.

Expect Ish's ranking to improve over the coming weeks.

I find it hilarious that when people mentioned a two for one being negative everyone in here was “you get the best DT in the country, Hell yea you take it”

Now since Rodney has been reclassified and it’s assumed ish dropped in rankings and goes to bama it’s “that was a stupid idea to begin with”

I got blasted for saying this was a bad idea months ago, screw them, go to bama and enjoy the gump life. I hope they like inbreds bc that’s half of their fan base

I guess everyone will finally get what they want. Ish is getting to go to bama without repercussions of spurning his brother and LSU as the only team to offer both. Everyone on this site should be happy about not wasting a scholly on Rodney. Win, win.

Hopefully O learned from last year with the Surtain BS. Once he gave Sophser exactly what he wanted by offering his brother and then Sophser still didn’t commit O should have seen the end game right then and there and moved his attention in a different direction. Yes it would be nice to keep all the homegrown talent here but don’t hang yourself out to dry and risk looking like a fool while an 18 year old kid plays games with his recruitment. It’s obvious the Bama guy in Amite has Ish locked in or else he would have been over the moon the be able to play with his brother at LSU together like he says he wants. I hope Ish knows after he signs with Saban all promises are null and void and he will never see his brother wearing a Bama uniform next to him.

There has been a question whether Rodney would even be eligible for months. Now that he’s not and has to move to 2020, this is:

1. A shock to everyone, despite Ish mentioning this almost exact situation a couple weeks ago.
2. Some kind of master plot by Saban, when it’s just a player not taking care of his academics.
3. Supposedly a failure by our coaches who also are being accused of having no idea this was going on being blindsided by it (not true)
