Just a guess.

Rueben R- 35% LSU, 35% Bama, 30% Other
Kenny B- 65% LSU, 35% Bama
Trent R- 80% Bama, 20% LSU
KK- 60% Bama, 20% LSU, 20% Other
Dre K- 100% Bama
Janzen J- 90% LSU, 10% Bama
W. Cambell- 10% LSU, 5% Bama, 85% Other
D. Sentimore- 100% Bama, unless LSU offers, then 70% LSU, 30% Bama
E. Stinson- 45% LSU, 35% Bama, 20% FSU


Others I am missing?

Those 3 are all solid to LSU. I was referencing the non commits or the soft commits.

Dre Kilpatrick- He is a 5* corner out of Alabama. Probably the top player in Alabama this year.

Ok, everyone be honest..........who shite themselves when they saw the rationale and objectivity of this post?

Compliments to you Gump! You have superceded your brethern.

The only thing I would change........MAYBE is Pushing Kelly a bit more out of Bama. I think something like 50% Bama, 25% LSU, 25% other.

LSU has a better shot at Randle.

Randle- 60% LSU, 30% Bama, 10% other

lol at breaking it down with percentages, what a terrible way to look at recruiting.

On KK- I am not really sure what is going on with him. I think most believe he ends up at Bama, but he is probably leaning out of state at the moment. If signing day were tomorrow, he probably does not go to Bama.

What's your bright idea Les?

John, I agree with True Grit, I might bump Randle up a bit too. Where do you think KK goes if not Bama? I think Clemson was a threat but not as much anymore perhaps.

Seems logical to me. At the end of the recruiting season, it is either 100% or 0%, but until then there are percentages of success. Of course, I often get paid to give advise in percentages (not in relation to recruiting), so perhaps I am biased.

This thread is 100% bullshite. Take Randle for example. Who knows where he's going or who's in the lead or who even has a realistic shot at him? Sentimore might go to Arky for all we know. He himself even said that he isn't going to switch to LSU, but posters on this site think he'll immediately jump ship if he gets a LSU offer (and that could be true).

If you asked the players themselves, they probably couldn't break it down into percentages.

Like most kids, I think he is in love with the idea of UCS. I also think he had a nice visit to Texas. It seems to me that he is hot and cold with Bama and could go to almost anywhere that makes him feel comfortable.

I have heard NOTHING about USC or Texas with Randle.

People are just paranoid about Randle because of the McKnight fiasco. Randle has been quiet, but that does not mean he is going out of state. And most of the bama rumors about him were proven wrong.

I disagree. I think most think in terms of percentages until they make up their minds. Sorry you think my reasoning is BS. It is just an opinion and you obviously have a different opinion.

As for DS, it is clear that he was LSU bound if they offered. Why is it unrealistic to belive that he could switch if they now offered? I agree that there is a good chance that he would honor his commitment, but I think there is a better chance that he would switch to LSU. As for RR, he is not saying much of anything in the press, but that does not mean that there is no information out there on him. Many people believe this is an LSU v. Bama race and is a close call. If it is a close call, what is wrong with breaking it down in percentages?
