Damn we fricked

CL8100•88 months

not really, just a chance for someone else who really wants to be at lsu. if you dont want to then thats him. aranda can find someone else should have a few commits this week

Tigerfan232•88 months

This is just a all around stupid move. Especially with Aranda getting an extension for all three years this kid would be here....

Spankum•88 months

Well good for him....if he doesn't want to be at LSU, we need to give the scholarship to someone who wants to be a tiger.

BayouBengal61•88 months

Damn Georgia getting all these 4 and 5 stars all of a sudden. Wouldn't be surprised if Kirby got a visit from the NCAA

tjohn deaux•88 months

Well somebody has trouble committing to anything. I wonder how committed he is in practice.

HoustonGumbeauxGuy•88 months

Kirby gonna have some splain'n to do, hopefully he is using the same tactics he learned at Bama #DodgeChargersForEveryone #TrustTheProcess

SomeLSUguy•88 months

Kid must not be too smart... Why would you leave this situation? Everything about being a LB recruited by LSU is gold right now. On to the next one...

SomeLSUguy•88 months

Had an "aha" moment... Shite started to get real for this young man. He couldn't handle the expectations that were going to be put on him at LSU. He was going to be given every opportunity to succeed with no excuses. He either could not handle that type of responsibility or did not want that type of responsibility. We are better without him.

CL8100•88 months

any word on nick smith, willie gay, marvin wilson, k'lavon chaisson calling up aranda or committing to lsu ? whats the scoop on these guys, they have high interests in lsu is all i know

How is this any different than leaving early and going to NFL? You guys don't like this, but don't mind players leaving to go to NFL!

HideChaKidz•88 months

Are you really this stupid?

Lexman1•88 months

I know this is just the nature of the business these days. But I think once you COMMIT to something, that should be it. Otherwise, there is really no commitment. The NCAA should mandate no commitments until NSD. Getting burned out on this wishy washy crap! Anyway, good luck in Georgia Monty. Maybe Aranda told him he wouldn't be a starter and he would in GA. I still think O and Aranda have 2-3 stud LB'ers ready for NSD. Hope I'm right! Time will tell

barry•88 months

They aren't commitments. They are dudes on twitter making statements. You want to ban the NCAA from letting players say where they are going?

Georgia's math department must have made one hell of an impression.

SamuelClemens•88 months

Co-eds are 5* at UGA and the ratio is 4:1 gals:guys

Space Cowboy•88 months

Everybody kind of new that was going to happen.

Disgeaux Bob•88 months

Adios ! Tiger bait !!!

eugene1928LSU•88 months

well said no chest, tiger bait. your uga team typically is ranked between 25 and 45 most years

tigerpawl•88 months

Why did this happen?

dcbl•88 months

because Kirby is a monster on the crootin trail

Bigtigah•88 months

He seen the stud we already have in Devin White

GaTiger27•88 months

Pshhhhh

bass•88 months

It is what it is, sad news.

Mouche337•88 months

I don't know why everyone is all worked up. Devin White and Micheal Divinity are studs. The only thing LSU has a problem is dept. When I saw this guy, I really couldn't picture him getting on the field at LSU. If he was any good, Saban wouldn't have let him leave the state. The only reason he isn't going to Bama is because he wasn't offered a scholarship there. If Bama didn't offer an in state guy, that should tell you everything you need to know about him.

km•88 months

I agree with you about White and Divinity, but Rice is an excellent lb. He doesn't fit into bama's mold of 6'3" and bigger. Tough loss but there's still very good lbs out there.

bearfan22•88 months

dont matter. we got 37 cornerbacks. we can always switch to the 3-0 cover 8 defense

OU812•88 months

Somebody has to say it...What is it with Orgeron and Aranda's inability to recruit linebackers?

pellietigersaint•88 months

It's kids asswipe. They entitled and fickle....and easilyrics manipulated. U sound dumb
