I was going from board to board on signing day just getting information and ran across the thread here about RSJ. I was intrigued by this as I had not heard that. So I went back to some of the boards I am a meber of and asked around. Well there indeed was a rumor floating around on one of our message boards about losing a big name to another SEC school. There were rumors it was RSJ but that in the end he stuck with the Aggies. I was trying to see if you guys had any info on this, then I get here and see this. So now it makes sense. Sucks that it was the boards that made him stay. "loose lips sinks ships" is kinda true I guess

I highly doubt that it was the boards that caused RSJ to stay at A&M. Nothing on here really came out and blatantly said "RSJ IS COMING TO LSU". His name was mentioned in the Boom threads but so was about 20 other recruits. It wasn't until after he signed that it was confirmed RSJ may have been having second thoughts but that was it

He made an informed and smart decision. He was also tweeting Derrick Griffin that week that he would hold the fort down in CS until he got there

Just asking. How do we know it was the word getting out that stopped the flip?

That was his and his's family excuse for trolling LSU, a SEC rival.

I'm not sure if it was the message boards or not. That seemed to be the general though around here. Just saying there was a whisper about this. Then when I read the 15 page thread from a couple of days ago I was intrigued. So I checked and asked some folks and the general consensus was that LSU had made a LATE push and he was considering it. Then he changed his mind at the "midnight hour" as they say

Manziel was also going to be transferring, but they couldn't agree on which DE spot he'd take.

I'm really not sure about the animosity. I simply made a statement based on information I was told. For God's sake there was a 15 page thread here about this but there is no truth to any of it? I have a low post count so I am a troll or I get mocked. No other Aggies really chimed in on the other post so I thought I would give you info from our end. Damn.
