How does the booing affect our recruiting?

A lot or not at all?
Bet we don't get Jefferson's little brother, but other than that?

Recruits love it when we boo the black players and cheer for the white ones.

I hope a lot.
It's stupid.
I hope we had some recruits in town, today.
LSU fans can't handle success.

Seriously, probably minimal impact. There are dumb people in every fan base and you know what, Jefferson did frick up and maybe he deserved a little boo because of his actions that night.
I wasn't there and wouldn't have bood if I was but just playing devils advcte.

It has a negative effect. They feel like what kind of fair weather fans does LSU have when their team is #1 in the country and the are still booing.

How much of a negative affect I do not know, but it is a given that the recruits will notice it. They then have to try to understand why the booing is taking place. Some will be completely turned off and think a player should never be booed. Others will know the situation and feel JJ may have deserved it. Either way I believe it's bad practice and certainly does not help recruiting at all, nor does it look good on national TV with everyone watching.
Let me put it in perspective. Many recruits may very well want to observe how we welcome back players who have made mistakes. They may want to see if they will be forgiven seeing as how we all have made mistakes. When they see that we are booing a guy who has made a mistake... a guy once considered family.. and that we seemingly refuse to forgive.. what does this tell those recruits who seek a family atmosphere out of their college choice? At this same time, that player we are booing, JJ is attempting to put the ball in the endzone to help our team. By all accounts JJ is very sorry for his actions. Most of us don't even know what his actions actually were.
Will it hurt recruiting? Maybe not, but it sure can't help. His coaches and teammates are behind him and we should be as well...

It affects it point blank. How much isn't a question. Stupidity is what you call the booing. Hypocrite people

The same people that booed Lee a few years ago. It's not a racist thing. It's just stuidity. But also stupid that people keep blaming it on racism.

Can't be good. Wouldn't even want to get into about what it says about our fanbase other than that it comes off very poorly. Landon Collins was at the game yeterday.
we should just keep repeating that and maybe they will believe it.
