I believe hootie will come if a spot is available. you dont turn down talent.

that being said he made his choice. we made moves to look at other opportunities.

doesnt mean we dont WANT him.

Means we told Adams he's the last safety, and if you want to hold on to Adams, you aren't taking Hootie.

Agreed, and should we go 4 for 5, that spot has opened.

We're taking 3 safeties. Voorhies to WR, add Hootie, and we still have 3 safeties.

If we are being technical its west pro. made famous by Bill Walsh.

made Montana and Young excellent. they didn't have cannons, just absolute control of the ball and receivers that created space. al la Beckham and Landry

If we told Adams that we are selling hootie short, I dont like what he did as much as everyone else. But the kid can play. he will make one hell of a nickel/cover Lb in chavis scheme.

Adams can still patrol the middle like Reid and make plays. I dont see the dispute on taking both.

Speedy just enjoying the ride!!! He is 17-18 for crying out loud!!! He is just having a great time! Look at the kid's grin.. He is the one that everyone assumes will be LSU lock because of family ties.. He just wants to be appreciated and it is working!!!!

We did tell Adams that. But the situation may be changing.

shite. we have confirmation of that? seems like a mistake, but I agree with Adams over Jones if need be. I just don't like it.

I think both can excel here.

It will be interesting to see if Hootie still wants to be an early enrollee...if he chooses not to be, that is very telling

That's what some of the recruiting reporters said. It made complete sense at the time. However, if we only get 4, then that potentially changes things.

"Hey, you are the last safety we are recruiting. We waited to get our in-state guy, he was our guy, and he spurned us. You are our guy if you want in, and its all you."

"Commit here, you are the last safety, Hootie decommitted but we are committed to you, pick us on Jan 2nd, you are our guy."

"Hey, now that you picked us, we want to talk to Hootie again. Yea, we know we told you you were our guy, and you are our guy, we just want to bring one more in. Maybe this other guy moves to offense."

If you guys don't want to see anything wrong with that, then alright. You don't tell a kid he's a priority then wait for him to commit before you go back on it. I'll quit arguing, maybe Adams signs off on it if he and Hootie get chummy in Orlando. But not counting on it.

Not to jump off topic on my own thread but I've notice Hootie had been retweeting a lot of LSU commits and coach Miles the past few days. Not sure what to make of it






Poor kid made a bad decision at 17-18 years old... Hope we can get him in the end.. He is repentant!!! Forgive Hootie!!!

Yeah, the conversation needs to be had with Adams, but your not making any sense. We will still only take 3 safeties. It doesn't change the numbers at all.

I see your point. I really do. I just hate leaving playmakers that want to(eventually) make those plays in P&G let go.

but I agree. Adam's ability I like more. If need be let Jones find other secondary's to line up in. just dont like that his other options are conference foes.

Surely Adams has more confidence in his gift than that/... Personally, I hope his ego is big enough to compete with
HJ... I want 'em both!!!! I want 'em all!!!
