Just talking about A&M game, said that AfterYeldon, gumps are loaded at RB position, with two immensely talented freshmen.

LF has to be aware of this, along with our need, doesn't he?

LF is well aware of everything.

"I don't need you but I want you"

Nick Saban

"I want you and I need you"

They're probably telling LF, the others will be moved to other positions.

I felt like when Cam went to the Bama spring game and LF went to the LSU spring game, that was a heavy indication of where they were leaning. My only worry is that Bama can use LSU's neediness against them in this case, it's never good to be desperate.

they'll tell him that because they already got mad when they wanted him as a LB

Just to let you know Leonard Fournette is a day 1 starter anywhere in the country save UGA.

Actually, some are reporting that they want to move LF to LB. And he ain't hearin it. Bama isn't even #2 for his services either. That's USC, and Kiffen isn't going to make it to the end of the season.

This is where my paranoia and my blood pressure gets inflated. Bama would not pass up anyone like LF. So how much help do they need to convince LF he would play over all those backs? Well Rivals, Bamas recruiting coordinators, have the only back Bama has committed so far as an athlete. Not a RB. Now I would guess that Scarbrough would be a 5 star RB if LF wasn't being eyed by Saban.

I doubt LF is scared of competition for playing time. Fact is though he is day one starter at LSU and at Bama he would have to earn the job. Guess it just boils down to whether he wants to stay in state or go out of state. He will be successful no matter which school he chooses. It is only us Lsu fans who will be upset if he picks Bama. Much as I hate Bama Nicky has two NC and good shot at three in a row with his schedule this year. That has got to sway a lot of recruits, that is just a fact. Best way to win at recruiting against Bama is to beat them bad on the field and show which program has better team. It can be done we just got to do it.

Nah, Fournette went to LSU's. I'm looking at the article on 24/7 right now that says so.

ETA: On 24/7's timeline it says that he visited on April 20th which was the date of the Spring Game.

Can't remember where I saw it a couple weeks ago, but they were talking about TE or LB for Bo.
