Elite 2019 five-star offensive tackle Kenyon Green announced Monday night that he has de-committed from LSU and has reopened his recruitment.

The 6-5, 315-pound prospect from Humble, TX (Atascocita) originally committed to LSU back in December of 2016. He is the No. 2 overall offensive tackle in the country for the class of 2019, according to 247Sports.


LSU now has six verbal commitments for the class of 2019 with the departure of Green.

Just an elite recruit seeing the world.

That said, let’s give zero credibility to this early commit bullshite. Beyond a year out.....zero.

Kids today have zero clue what the word "commitment" means. I don't give two shits about a 2019 recruit until next year, and I don't care about a 2018 commitment until the LOI is in.

None of this nonsense matters until their signature is on that list on signing day... Until they show up on that list, they are not a Tiger IMO.

Relax people. He's just exploring. He wants to go on all these official visits and get wined and dined by the major universities out there. If he stayed committed, those universities wouldn't offer him visits. He de-committed to so these schools would offer him official visits. He's a 5 start recruit! He's earned those visits! let him enjoy what he's earned! after he's had his fun, he re-commit to LSU and all will be well. R.E.L.A.X.

Why even bother reporting when a kid commits two years in advance. This show is a joke. Let us know what he is doing next summer; until then it’s just nothing. Hopefully this early signing period will put the advantage back with the schools and force the kids to quit playing the games.

When you are a big time D1 recruit (in any sport) all sorts of options become available for you. With so many coaching moves recently, some or one of them may have opened his eyes to the possibility of him having a great opportunity somewhere else. That doesn’t mean he won’t end up at LSU. Some of you seem like you’re trying hard to change his love for the school also. It’s not very smart to call someone names when they could end up at LSU and being a great player.

Is it common for these cats to decommit only to actually sign with LSU? Serious question.

Sometimes people decommit and then end up commiting again. Is it common? Probably not. That’s really irrelevant to whether or not people should bash a recruit over a year before signing day.

Why do they always write it on their iPhone note app?

What would you prefer they write it on? Note app is instant digital transfer.

They do it so they can tweet a message that contains more than 140 characters. It just happens to be a screenshot of the message.
