According to Shae and Wiltfong. They both have him on flip watch heading into the season and Fong says intel favors UT. Shae says LSU has offered a package that is about as good as one can get, but Key’s mom has brought on an NFL Agent, Bus Cook. May inevitably go in the Vol’s favor.

Good news in today's day and age is that WR is one of those positions where you can legitimately go out in the portal every year and find impact guys. If you do lose Keys, you just go find another Barion Brown/Nic Anderson type guy or two.

I don't know how any of you follow recruiting anymore. Why bother?

Not knocking people's hobbies, I can get into this as well, but it just doesn't ever matter until they actually sign.

Parents couldn't care less where the player wants to go. They just want to piggy back as much cash as they can from their kid.

I'm really tired of hearing about how close he is to flipping all the time it's time to cut him loose and go after the wr who committed to Syracuse.

Long gone are the days of a kid playing college ball at a school because that's where he wants to go. It's all about what does mom and dad want..... because mom and dad can't have a damn thing on their own.

I remember when everyone was upset that we lost out on Jojo Earle and we had to settle for Malik Nabers

Agreed.

QB imo is a position that you don't want these guys flipping last second. Aka Bryce Undercock

Flip, don’t flip, none of it matters until the final week and final offers anyway. If mom has this mentality she can be bought. Does LSU have interest in doing that?

This should surprise no one. In particular on him, he has always been I will believe it when he's in an LSU uniform in a game

Why? Because you " hear " something? Like media searching for clicks? This is is the way it is now. LSU is also pursuing commitments t other schools. No reason to be reactive to every rumor. It will play out however it plays. Fortunately the recruiters don't bail at the first sign of a challenge.

Did he also steal welfare money from the state of Mississippi, or was that just his biggest client that did that?

Same, I just cant care any more until we get to signing day, it's all such a $ sprint to the finish line anything can happen so why care until that day in December comes finally.
