What are our chances, any updates. I searched and found nothing that said we have a shot. If so that okay but just curious could we finish with some fireworks.

FYI - I like Wright and would be happy with him.

Actually the Tulsa World is reporting White has narrowed his decision down to LSU and Okie St. With Stills just commiting to OU, and Texas stealing Davis it looks like we might get lucky and snag White. That would be a huge pickup.

How does the Tulsa World have scoop on a kid from Fort Worth, TX? LSU hasn't been among this kid's top schools for months. Don't buy it.

Not sure where they got LSU from (honestly y'all haven't been a player in his recruitment for quite a while now) but it looks to be down to Okie Lite and Texas with OU looking from the outside in.

time for the full court press... if we have even a remote shot at him, we should go all out.

that would definitelty make the sting from the Davis switch disappear.

are there any other sources indicating LSU is in the running? (other than the link above)

I don't think we land him.

But with OU landing Stills and UT landing MD things have obviously changed with the schools that were thought to be his leaders.

I agree with texastigah, i think we have an 80% chance of landing this guy.

the NCAA ruled him ineligible for the 2nd half of this season because he talked with Deion Sanders

he's still gonna be a top 10-15 draft pick next April

his whole recruitment seems puzzling. seemed like he mentioned us a lot early and then we just didn't pursue him. then he was ou or texas and now osu is in the mix and with the wrs the other schools have taken and our need at the position, i'm not sure why we weren't pursuing him harder...

White has known about Davis for a month now and Davis plays a completely different position (Flanker) than White.

Like I said, not sure where the paper got that info from, but LSU & Darius White haven't been involved with each other for a long damn time now. That's not even mentioning that the dead period starts this week and White is announcing his school on January 2nd at the Under Armour Game.

Not to mention, I think White is a far better prospect than Davis. I cant imagine Davis' commitment would scare him off. Who knows though...

Say's who your mods? Davis lied to our mods for a while and then switched.

Again, not saying we get DW......But you have no clue if he's been talking to LSU or not.

Wouldn't believe a newspaper report either, but his entry on the ESPN 150 list has LSU, Utah, Texass, ZeroU, & OakState:

did we even offer him? and if so when?

if he hasnt even visted, chances are near 0%... he wont be coming to LSU. Have any top recruits ever comitted anywhere this late without a visit?

esp OOS. I just dont see it.
