"I've felt for months that Hootie wanted to play at Alabama. He basically came out and would tell you without saying it but something has happened in the last couple weeks. Something has occurred in his life that is making him re-evaluate. I think he is an LSU lean now."




Basically he alluded that it pissed Hootie off that Bama kept pursuing other safeties. Also the family and friend pressure has pushed him to us.

My best guess is that when Saban started being rumored to Texas it made him step back and think about the bigger picture. There is a strong chance that Saban may not be around for 4 more years at Alabama. If that happens, is he comfortable being at a Sabanless Alabama?

On the other hand, LSU is LSU. He has friends and probably a cousin or two there. If Les Miles were to leave, LSU is probably still just as desirable as it would be if Les were there all 4 years.

So in other words, maybe he realized he wants to commit to a school and not just a coach.

Someone really should record some Bama fan rants to share with recruits.

He was all LSU at one time, imo, until CRob got in his ear. He and his crew told him not to listen to other people, but do what was best for him. I think he realized LSU was where he really wanted to be..., like he did originally.

I maybe wrong, but I think I'm right in my assumption.

I like Mike, but he doesn't know as much as Sonny and Shea on this issue and it showed in that interview.

Detellier is less than impressive as an NFL scout. When he gets into college recruiting he just embarrasses himself.

Hootie was all Bama from long ago, before the season I had many that knew his family said he was going to Alabama.

Then add in Cam, and Sims pushing Bama and do not forget the Bama recruiters up here 24/7 pushing Bama.

It's a joke. Alabama fans have such a homer view of recruiting they think anyone they don't land just really didn't have an offer anyway.

Impossible that someone just doesn't wanna play there.
