I think most LSU fans thought he was building up the

drama only to pull a big frick you to bama. As it turned

out he was doing it to LSU. IMO most tiger fans wouldn't

believe that this was gonna happen. There was simply TOO

much in LSU's favor. Oh well. Good luck and I hope that

he sticks to his commitment. A player SHOULDN'T have to

be convinced to come to LSU!

You don't know what I think. When I saw weeks ago that picture of him & his girl in Bama garb I figured he was gone.

I just don't by the bullshite that she the one who's following him on an academic scholarship.

Well lets not talk about stuff we don't know.

We don't know the dynamics of his personal life and no mod or insider can prove that. We should ban all disbarring remarks about Mom and GF.

It is clear that she followed him to Bama not the other way around.

ETA: In 3 years LC will be worth millions i seriously doubt she pulled rank and convinced him to go where she wanted. I bet she would have loved to stay close to her family as well.


Thank you.

Has he signed yet or put on the dreaded "A" cap? I don't think so...... NSD always has pleasant and not so pleasant surprises. I would prefer he say Ala. now and sign with LSU later!

You have to wonder if the BCS title game winner will be the REAL deciding factor. Our dominance over Ala. and being the BEST college football team in the last decade may prove too much for our best home-grown talent to overcome. Time will tell..... Looking forward to NSD and BCS title game! Geaux Tigers

I also think it's funny how he and his girlfriend were LOVING the attention they were getting before the decision, but now they can't handle the attention they are getting after the decision!


Great observation!

he tweeted that he made this choice 2 years ago. I doubt her school of choice over the past year pushed him over the top.

Oh and BTW Monday night makes no difference in where he chooses to play ball. If they lose it even more reason why he should want to go there and take Bama to the next level. Which is getting back to the CShip.

He is a good ball player and made a choice that best fits him and not his family. can't blame him for that.

He has put on the cap, the gloves, the lapel pin.....
Hell, he was probably wearing Bama underoos last night.

Then you should understand the sentiment that people aren't happy for stringing LSU along for 2 years.

Would you hate him more for not letting LSU recruit him at all for 2 years?

So he wants to be a man and make his own choices but he is claiming he knew it was Bama 2 years ago because he doesn't want to own up to the fact that he is whipped.


If he made the decision two years ago, she's the one following him.

It's nice to have a scapegoat though and highschool girls are easy targets.

Or he is telling the truth and did know 2 years ago and wasted LSU,s time.


Nice upstanding citizen.


IMO, the "nice upstanding citizen" types like the ones on this board who called his girlfriend a whore with aids, the ones who said they hoped he broke his legs or tore his ACL, only have themselves to blame for him stringing his commitment on.

Like it or not a lot of LSU fans have an entitlement problem with their instate talent. Your lack of an instate rival hasn't helped conditioned a lot of Tiger fans for dealing with losing a big time instate recruit. With that kind of pressure I would have waited as long as I could too. It's fricked up to put that on a kid.

SP prom in your opinion he should have shut the door on LSU early. Maybe he really did have some Love for LSU. I know he has friends that go there.

He gave LSU a shot and thats it. I can't blame him for that. All our staff asked for is for to listen. He has to make that choice. We agev him a great pitch had him out to a lot of games and will keep making pitches. He is a prize recruit.

But unless someone can show me or prove that he told LSU staff that he was coming to LSU he isn't stringing you along.

I agree with some of your post,but I don't think we should

be trying to convince LC to come if LSU is not where he

wants to be. I'm sure that his parents and friends have been

trying to convince him for months that it's RETARDED to

follow a girl to college. How many people think their in

Love at his age , and then break up. It's simply too big of a

decision to allow this to be a deciding factor. He belongs at

LSU ,and his parents know it.I wish him the best, and I don't

want him to change his mind. He was a big enough boy last

night to show how grown up he is and that he can make his

own decisions, so now it's time he live with it
