LSU or just something that happens to early commitments?

From DandyDon
In football recruiting news, LSU's success this year has apparently caused a lot of big-time players who are committed to other schools to think twice about LSU. Lorenzo Phillips, a highly sought-after linebacker from Patterson who committed to Florida a couple of months ago, has opened his recruitment back up and is strongly considering LSU. Rumor has it that he will de-commit today and then take his full allotment of five official visits before making a decision. I like LSU's chances with the 6'2", 205 four-star linebacker. He would be a nice addition to an already solid LSU recruiting class. It has also been reported that a couple of five-star FSU defensive end commitments, Dante Fowler and Mario Edwards, are now considering a visit to LSU. If LSU's success continues this season, as I think it will, this recruiting class could really surprise some people.
I would like to think LSU's defensive success has made Phillips reconsider. But this must happen from time to time

I think Phillips was a soft commit to UF and LSU was never really out of the picture.

Good news, but belongs in recruiting board.

We've certainly lost our share of early out-of-state commitments so...

Phillips has gone from A&M to Florida, and now opening back up again. We won't know until ge signs who he is going to for certain.

I remember 20 years ago losing Louisiana talent to Nebraska beacause of their programs success, I remember losing talent to Tennessee because of their facilities and I remember losing local talent because LSU was mediocre. Now we are reaping the benefits of our commitment to Football. I'm still getting used to be the "better choice" too.

It happens every year that a team plays their way into a kid's consideration. Those early commits don't mean much at all.

I can certainly understand recruits--especially defensive ones--being attracted to the swagger this team plays with. And the media exposure they are getting as well.
