I don't know, but if they did, Id scratch Ole Miss. I could easily take an unofficial to them if I needed cash and Bama for a car.

I may be wrong but I'm fairly certain Willis and Landon Collins share a mother but have different fathers. So, the fact that Willis's father and Wilson are close childhood friends had no impact on Collins, obviously.

You know how I know it's February...Everybody saying the kid should enjoy his trips, take his time, and commit when he is ready. Fast forward five months and people will be coming out of the wood work with the "I don't want him if he doesn't bleed purple and gold from the start" and "These kids are prima donnas", blah,blah,blah.

You'll have the "if he's waiting this late to commit it's bad news because he doesn't want to commit OOS and get harassed all year" people chime in.
I love that theory.

Yeah, that's a favorite of mine too, since it's been proven wrong so many times. It amazes me that people still believe it. Denzel Devall and Standish Dobard got pretty much no grief when they committed early. And Devall's "early" commitment was in like November or December.
It's the people that drag it out and blatantly play up that LSU is in it only to commit elsewhere that draw ire. The people that just go ahead and commit get forgotten about as soon as the new target is found.

Dobard was always behind Smith tough to those who keep up

People wanted both, but moved on very quickly after he committed. And even more quickly after we locked down Smith, who committed later IIRC.
