A new year comes with a new commitment for the Tigers...

The 6-4, 285-pound prospect from Niceville High School de-committed from Florida State earlier this week.

Celebrating signing 3* O linemen meanwhile bama signed 4 5* olinemen. Can’t make up the gap without trench guys and obviously we aren’t closing the gap

This is not always the case but if we miss on Leigh then filling gaps with 3 star projects is not the way to close the gaps on talent against bama,clemson and oh st.

Those guys didn’t want to come to LSU so what do you suggest the coaches do?

Yeah, we celebrated getting a 3 star RB who was just some local kid and was supposedly too small for SEC Football and lost out on a 5 star RB named Cam Akers. That 3 star kid some of you were critical of was named Clyde. So stfu.

He has not gotten the benefits of our S&C program yet, along with the training table, but is already a big, strong human. I look forward to seeing him reaching his potential. The sky is his top. His future is unlimited.

Damn glad to have this young man. He truly WANTS to be here yet some of you stupid, star gazing mofos do nothing but whine like the bitches you are. We actually need MORE kids like Kimo regardless of their so called star rating. We need players who want to invest their time and effort for LSU. I do not understand the mentality of star gazing nitwits. Welcome aboard Kimo.

The star rating is a lot less important than how you develop the player and how the player develops. This is a good commitment.
