Kevin Hart. And why do I know his name? Because it was national news! And why was it news? Because it rarely happens. A kid can get away with embellishing the truth a little on his list of offers, but if he "accepts" a non-existant offer, it seems like it would immediately bite him on the arse.

Kevin Hart got bit in the arse because a reporter in Nevada called Cal and asked about him. The coach said he never heard that name before. All that a coach can say is if his school is recruiting a player or not. He can't comment about offer's, visits, phone calls, camps, etc.

I pisses me off that people still insist that Bates was never offered by LSU.

But what was he offered? grey shirt? preferred walk on? full ride with no strings?

I have no idea.
