Defensive tackle Shavar Manuel's flip from Florida to rival Florida State on national signing day Wednesday was a strategic move two weeks in the making that the Seminoles were well aware of, according to an FSU assistant coach.

The 6-foot-4, 280-pound four-star recruit from IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida, had been told, according to defensive ends coach Brad Lawing -- who coached at Florida in 2013 and 2014 -- to "play the game" and "tell the damn Gators anything they want to hear."

Manuel, the 72nd-ranked player in the ESPN 300 and 10th at his position, had committed to Florida on Jan. 5.

Let's all laugh at Florida for this and trying to tell Fulton his primary recruiter and position coach at LSU was leaving

oh, and also for having a coach who refers to himself in the third person

Why is it a dick move? I'm sure FSU isn't the only school playing these games

I don't know if the flip had other factors involved, but Manuel having grade issues has been discussed for weeks on our boards.

its pretty shitty no matter what school does it

I wouldn't like it if LSU coaches told a kid to do it, even if it was to Bama

Kids who just freak out and flip at the last minute is understandable. But playing Ashton Kutcher punk'd on a school is weak.

yeah I'd say it was a dick move on FSU's part, but they've engaged in some pretty bush league tactics themselves so frick em.

I'm just sick of our coaches falling for this bullshite.

I knew 100% that Dalvin Cook and Ermon Lane was trolling us. And I had a strong hunch this year that Manuel wasn't solid.
