He'll never see the field at AL, why don't these kids realize that.

Exactly! Have Landon Collins, Eddie Lacy, and Cam Robinson taught them nothing?

For every player that goes to Alabama from Louisiana and succeeds, there is 5 that flop. Terrible decision by Allen.

So Bama gets two 5/4 star LBs from LSUs backyard. Awesome.

Baton Rouge kid right in our backyard at a position of need. Still can't get him. That's pretty sad.

Why go some where that's building? When you can walk into bama and get a ring(s). I understand.. great for Chris.

This makes me sick to my stomach. This one really hurts. You cannot lose kids of this quality to the team that keeps kicking your arse every year. The results won't change unless this situation is put to a halt. It's pathetic.

Maybe lsu shouldnt gove HC jobs to 55 year old dline coaches. This is the most unqualified hire in big 6 history.

Well that explains it. Former Saban player. A lot of those players put him before LSU.

IMO Randall is the only reason he held out so long from committing to Bama.

The day after we name O HC. That's another message, just like when Moses committed the day after we fired Miles. The Bama bag men do this for that reason.

He's probably one of 10 four/five star LB'ers committed to BAMA....last I seen only 3 get on the field at one time.... but hey you get a ring (Trophy) for participation... sounds familiar.... it's never over till signing day... chill.....

This has more to do with Coach O firing BDP, who was the leading recruiter for Allen.

Saban owns Lsu. He put the fence up and has torn it down. Lsu got screwed the moment he went to bama and firing miles years too late didn't help matters.

Well, it's the 70's and 80's and 90's all over again. If Les Miles would have hired a worthy OC and let him do his job, LSU would not have lost 6 games in a row and would have at least competed much better in the 2011 NC champ game. Fact is, kids want to win a NC, who doesn't? And they know it won't happen at LSU. Saban didn't tear the damn fence down, Miles did with his arrogant and hardheaded refusal to hire a worthy OC and let him do his job. It will take a coach the caliber of Saban to change this shite back. It will take a coach who can prove on the field he can win a NC at LSU. Once that happens these Louisiana kids will go to LSU. If Oregeron can't go out of state and replace the players Saban is taking from the state, it's all down hill from here. LSU should have taken Saban back when he decided to leave the Dolphin's. So what if Miles had a good record in 2005. It was only BC of Saban. Oh well, shite, maybe LSU should go back to annual games against Tulane. Maybe one day LSU will get a coach who can do what Saban did when he was here and the dude will stay 15 years and do at LSU what Saban has done at Alabama. The players are here, they just don't want to go to LSU and get embarrassed by Alabama every frickin year. Can you really blame them? They know where the crystal ball will be, and that ain't Baton Rouge!
