Scarby just said on Buddy's show. That LSU is not taking him and seems to think its another SEC school will get him.

Damage control

Isn't this with any recruit? If he signs, he is the guy we wanted all along. If he doesn't, it means we had our eyes on someone else. You can say that about any recruit that didn't sign with LSU.

You guys might want to let the kid commit before you start the "didn't want him anyways". This section has been praising Ely for the last month non stop

Negative.

We've been on this kid for months. Earlier this week, we're supposedly his number one. Now all of a sudden we aren't taking his commitment?

bullshite.

So we randomly offer kids scholarships that we aren't going to take?

This is damage control by people who think Ely is committing to us.

If that's true, it's pretty damning of where LSU's program stands right now.

Big deal if he wants to go to Bama let him go. If we get Brissett its a wash.

How many QB's have offers from LSU? Would we take them all?

I'm just saying maybe LSU's intentions all along were for a Pro-style and a Dual threat. Once, Rivers jumped on the offer, maybe LSU did move on. But, then again you could be right. That's why I said maybe.

I don't know if it's legit, but the bol mods were implying that he was going to commit to bama. we'll see. I had never heard of the kid until today so I really don't care.

I've stated for a while I'm not enamored with the guy. I just don't see much about his game that sticks out.

not saying we shouldn't accept his commit or anything, just seems like a career backup.

I'm leaning toward us today, but that article is not why I feel that way.

One thing is for sure, I am definitely way more interested in this 4 pm commitment than I was yesterday.

So TxTiger82 what is BS, even if it is, who cares if it's damage control. But is it beyond the relm of possibility that LSU knew for a couple of weeks that the kid wasnt coming here, and took Rivers instead. I dont think so. Hell even Ely knew LSU wanted to take 2 QB'S his coach even talked about it. So riddle me this. How is it BS that they would want to take 1 Pro Style and 1 Duel Threat.

How so? All I know about LSU recruiting I get from this sight. But anybody....anybody who didn't feel that the commitment from Rivers was a foreshadowing of the Ely situation just plain has their head up there arse.
