If the source is basing this on his family coming in, then I'm not excited. Unless he heard from mom that UT doesn't lead, then nothing has changed.

Where did this guy come from? I'd never heard of him until a couple months ago, now he's pumping LSU juice all over everyone's face.

I hope his mom let's him make his own choice. He's an Arden Key clone! Bet he loved his visit.

His take on the Mac Rowe kid is pretty ridiculous. Rowe is trolling pretty hard with his "finalists" list and Spiegelman is acting like he is some prized recruit.

Mac Rowe essentially means Marvin Wilson and through Wilson we have a legitimate shot at Klavion.

So Mac is a very vital recruit this cycle.

LSU's petroleum engineering degree is worth a lot too.

Theres like a 1.2% chance a college football player could have the time to complete a PETE degree at LSU or UT. Its a 5 year program and is not an easy curriculum by any means.

That's because he's not playing football in college. He applied to LSU like any normal student would, he just happens to be best friends with the #1 DT in the country.

Josh Dobbs proved that it is possible, but there have been many stories about how his acedemic demands caused him some issues on the field. CBS made a big deal about it in regards to the South Carolina game where he really struggled. However, Dobbs' highly publicized degree path may be his inspiration for wanting to pursue such a demanding degree path.

First off let me say I think we get K'lavon, but he should rethink his aspirations. The petroleum industry, excluding natural gas, is a dying industry. The signs are all there. I'm sure you've heard of the Tesla? Now all the major car manufacturers are producing EVs. The 2017 Motor Trend car of the year is the Chevy Volt. Have you heard of the Nikola? A big rig tractor. It's a fuel cell hybrid with 4 electric motors producing 1000 hp. and with a 1000 mile range. All that's left to do is develop the infrastructure. Expected to be complete in 2020. Mercedes is developing an all electric fleet truck with enough range for a day's operation. Expect others to follow suit.

Electrical Engineering is a much better choice. No, I take that back. For a football player, Sports Administration is a better choice. Sports is big business. You don't have to make it to the NFL to make a lot of money in sports.

you make valid points. Except you have to burn something to make that electricity in most places (and account for the inefficiency of generating energy remotely and then transmitting rather than generating under the hood). So 'dying'...no. Cyclically 'depressed', very likely.

Electrical generation - short term natural gas which is why I excluded natural gas. Long term solar (including rooftop solar), wind, ocean wave and ocean current and perhaps fuel cell.
