Henrietta Wildsmith/The Times / USA TODAY NETWORK

Four-star wide receiver Omarion Miller from Vivian, LA announced his de-commitment from LSU on Sunday afternoon.

Miller, a 6-2, 190-pound prospect from North Caddo HS was LSU's first commitment for the 2023 class when he gave his verbal pledge to the Tigers last August.

Calling them commitments is the first that should change.

kciDAtaE•52 months

Yeap. I don’t blame the kid. I blame the system. The system that explained what “commitment” means

brett408•52 months

“Details behind every opportunity” = NIL

CFB is now a professional sport

ezride25•52 months

“Whoever gets me is gonna have to pay me more than the other guys.” I miss cfb already.

jmarto1•52 months

Can we stop calling them commitments then?

Old Money•52 months

Its very easy to not care about cfb until this NIL issue gets fixed.

DeafVallyBatnR•52 months

Not care is not the work or way I look at it. Pissed off at it is my way of looking from a far. I love LSU. I don't care if this helps LSU. It is long time bad for everyone. Give a college kid this much money and what could happen? And it's not that much compared to the next level that they want. But some get a taste and they just think it's easy and don't do the work.

Let’s see how all this NIL crap plays out in year or two because all these teams like A&M who want to pay kids ridiculous money are only getting some of these players because they are paying them. Wait until some of these players walk off when they don’t get their way. These “boosters” are going to tire of paying players only to watch them leave to play for somebody else.

This kid isn’t nil level, look at his recruiting ranking. He was a questionable take to begin with

toosleaux•52 months

In other words, who got that NIL deal for my Dodge Charger

CajunBullet•52 months

If it is a Dodge Charger, he's Alabama bound!

floyd13•52 months

As he should you dont know his family situation sir.

CanebreakCajun•52 months

Dodge Charger? Pfff, that’s old school. Kid at Texas has a Lamborghini.

Get use to this.. this will happen more and more as the highest bidder wins.. just becuz you sign a 4 -5 star player one year doesn’t mean he will be here the next year.. the NIL is now college free agency.. they need to eliminate the word “ commitment”…

moontigr•52 months

He's a Mickey Joseph kid, and he's visiting Nebraska this weekend. Doesn't take a genius to figure this one out.

Celery•52 months

Makes sense. He explained it pretty clearly. Still interested in LSU. I ain’t mad at that.

Strannix•52 months

No "respect my decision?" Son I am disappoint

GumboPot•52 months

To land top recruits you have to pay more than the next guy. It's that simple. The problem is there is no salary cap in CFB like the NFL. The programs with the alumni with the most money will land top recruits. Facilities, educational opportunities, etc. are now inconsequential to landing top recruits. Money talks. Until there is some type of NIL cap, look for schools like aTm and Texas to get the best recruits.

The First Cut•52 months

I don’t see how a NIL cap could pass a legal challenge. SCOTUS has ruled on this and the NCAA is not a single employer like sports leagues. The players would have to unionize and sign a CBA with that single employer and it doesn’t exist in CFB.

OGTiger•52 months

At least he didn’t ask anyone to respect his decision.

Ponchy Tiger•52 months

Code for show me the money$$$$$$$$

rob62•52 months

Wake me up on signing day.

TheWalrus•52 months

Don’t know why anyone would commit early these days

TommyDaTiger•52 months

Pay the man

ApexTiger•52 months

Are you writing the check? WTF!

TNoon•52 months

He was never committed. He had intentions. But wasn’t committed. No surprise.

ItTakesAThief•52 months

I guess it is better than negotiating behind the scenes and using LSU as leverage by staying committed and not letting LSU know he is looking elsewhere and surprise them close to signing day with a decommit. At the same time, he may have expressed interest in visiting other schools, or about LSU giving the same deal that other schools were floating and was told he needed to de-commit if he was not sure about where he was going so LSU could start to re-recruit his spot.

Vernonbrew22•52 months

Totally agree. Now As far as LSU goes, look elsewhere and view it for what it is - a weak commitment

porge7106•52 months

Highest bidder!!

reauxl tigers•52 months
