Exactly. I am not saying WHY he decommits but it makes no sense to think he had second thoughts and decommitted. You gain nothing but pissing of your potential coaches by decommitting and might be burning bridges to the school you most want to attend.
Whatever it is it has to be something different than just having second thoughts.

I don't think recruiting was ever a very pristine undertaking.
shite they used to literally kidnap recruits. bear bryant was big on this tactic if he really wanted a player. they'd kidnap his arse and bring him to an undisclosed location and treat him like a king; the prisoner king
after signing day, he was released. i am NOT joking or making this up.
also, the amount of pay you received was based on your performance and the car was done the same way. you bought your car on "credit" and actually signed the papers they just didn't let you pay for it; someone else paid.

If you don't think that idiot and a-hole Landon Collins wasn't up to no good to try and sway LSU recruits away from LSU, well I can't help you much. It may or may not have all been part of a grand conspiracy involving Saban or with his encouragement, but if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks likes a duck, it's a fricking duck.

Hootie didn't decommit as some ploy to frick LSU and to think that it just stupid.

This is a ridiculous post. All schools do it in their own way. Hey, one of Auburn's former WR...a kid with the last name begins with an O...stated that LSU used negative recruiting against Auburn to try to spurn him away. All I am trying to say...let's not b.s. what Bama is doing...or any other school. They all do it; trust me on this one. I am a huge Tiger fan, but I feel like this board had a let after Saturday's commitments by Willis and Noil to other schools.
Sh@t happens, get over it. These are young kids.
We should be concerned with kids who wants to come to LSU and let the coaching staff figure out on how they are going to fence the state once again. Sometimes the truth hurts. No flame; but let's not live in denial.

They have only beat us the last two seasons, we beat them in 2011, 9-6 in Tuscaloosa. Maybe you meant we haven't beaten them the last three games we've played.

I don't know if what you post is actually what happened or not and only those involved really do. We can speculate all day long but at the end of the day, who knows?
All of these rumors, conspiracies, etc. are probably caused more by these clueless "insiders" that proclaim one thing after another while not really knowing what is going on. The paid site guys are trying to drive traffic to their sites for subscriptions and clicks. The free places and those here on the RB just want to be seen as insiders when they don't have a clue. After last week's 5/5 greatest class ever debacle, there are no insiders.
Too many people are trying to explain what happened and only some conspiracy fits the mold. When the reality is there was never this 5/5 setup that was floating all over TD - RB. If these insiders had to live and die by their predictions we would have spent the last few days going to funerals.
Don't overthink this and don't try to explain it. If you hadn't built up hope for all of these great in state recruits and never thought we would get them then there would be no letdown and no explanation necessary. It is simply all the false flag rumors that caused this.
Enjoy LSU football with the players we have and don't worry about recruiting. It will drive you crazy.

3/4 or now 3/5 titles and 7.5m/year is all that matters to Saban. You thinking anything else should is laughable.

If there's any truth at all to the part about LC, perhaps they should concentrate more on solving his tendency to be a ball hawk even when it's ill-advised. This really cost them vs OU.

Thanks for the insight ....I had no idea all of this devious shite lwas going on . Who would've thunk it (Bryant a kidnapper, Saban an anti La. Negative recruiting mastermind) seems legit to me and I am no longer an Alabama fan . I will not support such rubbish .
