It’s not like grades are the issue he did his juco time & got into a tougher school academically than LSU and he was literally at BRCC. He is hands down better than any safety we have, & we seen it on the field in the sec already.

I don’t know much about his life or exit but if he or anybody else doesn’t want to be here then we shouldn’t want him.

Not wishing any harm on him but there is the door, see ya

Seems highly debatable.
Arik Gilbert was talented too, but not worth it (Savannah State thinks so)

Sounded like he wanted to be here when he entered the portal but LSU didn’t contact him

I mean any reason to get out of BR is a good reason

Kid made his bed when he went to a&m. I love that he went to Auburn, I would never beg a kid to come here after he didn’t pick us the first time. I just wish his name would die around here.

I’m not sure I agree with this.

Where did you read he didn’t want to be here ? I’m hearing it was LSU who just didn’t go after him because it wasn’t for sure if he could play. But Auburn figured it out & no they have one of the best safeties in the conference

Coach O got fired & Kelly had to start recruiting him late. Can’t blame a kid for going to school that didn’t just fire the HC dude

Who are your starting safeties ? & what have you seen them do in the sec ? Just trying to talk ball not arguing. We are talking about a guy who was a freshman all American in the SEC! We seen Jacoby in action in the sec

Didn't we take the guy that beat out Mathews at aggy, and he sucked too?

Ok, we get it, you're annoyed that we didn't offer Mathews.

Might be a lonely place.

Well first of all you need to realize Arik Gilbert & Jardin Gilbert are 2 different people

Arik Gilbert was a head case & cancer on the team. Why did Matthews not succeed at A&M? (I was assuming it was a Denver Harris situation)
