Seriously though, I think it's a possibility.

Just a guess, but I think he'll commit no later than next Tuesday. It could happen during the visit, or early next week after one final talk with the folks.

So if he has to go on a 2 year mission or whatever it is, why would he be considered part of this year's class?

Does he still sign a LOI, and how long does that last for?

I think if he signs LOI it really doesn't mean much. The ship will just be freed up until he actually enrolls here. But his mission isn't a definite, he may just decide to enroll in school next year instead. I think we have a excellent shot at getting him, hes always liked LSU.

He loves Crowton and Miles, not sure what to say about his mission, i mean you can't bash him if he does do that i mean i think that admirable but i do hope he enrolls sometime next year if he does come here.

His dad has said they've not decided yet if he'll take his mission immediately or not. He may enroll and try to play a year before he goes. IMO he should just go ahead and go..he isn't going to play next year anyway and it'll be essentially like a 2 year grayshirt for LSU...or getting a JUCO kid back but with 5 years to play 4.

i think he is the best chance from our visitors to pull the trigger unless there is a 2010 guy who the staff would take a commitment from. speaking of it sure seems like kurt killens is all but a lock for LSU IMO

When is the last time...if ever LSU has picked up a commitment from a junior (ie a 2010 recruit right now)? I don't remember one ever.

i wouldnt say he is a lock but he is a heavy lean IMO. he really likes us but this weekend is crucial, i wouldnt expect him to make it official while he is here but if he decides he may let the coahces know then make his parents privvy to it before making it official

and idk if the coaches accept junior commits until after NSD

Good enough to get a commitable offer.

see thats what i want to know. how come teams like florida and usc etc etc can get these young juniors to commit so early. didnt barkley commit last september or something ridiculous. i wish randle wouldve committed that long ago.

The last update i remember about XSF was that he wasnt happy that we werent taking his buddy richard wilson the TE and that he was 50/50 with us and byu. the guy in my sig picture dominated him at the lsu summer camp. bennie is a speed rusher and xsf just couldnt handle him. 40/60% chance he commits this weekend.
