DEANintheYAY,
You do not sound excited about LSU possibly getting Kwon and Elston.


Nah, I would be very happy about getting both.

I still do wish that Lloyd Grogan would have been offered. Kid is from my hometown and has a high ceiling. BUT, playing single A ball hurt his chances.


Regarding Patterson, I would guess he is a take regardless because of the 2 guys that are academic risks at this point.

I understand but the Bama guys have been saying since the weekend that kwon will not get a scholly.
Then Gino says he got the scholly yesterday. He's all Bama.
Now he is saying they are a package deal to LSU.
Really? Lol

We are at 23 after Kwon and Elison why couldn't we sign Patterson ? Limit=25



That's what I was trying to clarify. We might still be on a scholly limit because of some minor violations. I think we enforced some of them already so I can't remember how many we have left.

I want Kwon. I think with a little time in Chavis system, he'd be a beast. His film is impressive. He'd be a blitzing machine for us. Chavis would put that 4.4 speed in good position. Bama take Deval, we'll take Kwon who probably fits our system better anyway...

Because people need to stop taking his word so seriously. Does anyone in here seriously think he is a insider or something? Shea/Pon is all you really need to listen to. They're they ones with real connections to LSU. And yea, I know, they got LC wrong. 99% of the time they're right.

"It looks like the staff has done their absolute best to prevent from having a dud finish, unlike what some have perceived. Stay tuned for National Signing Day, wait.... Just got the call"

Really?

He goes on to say ...

"With the additions of Jeremy Liggins #22 and Corey Thompson #23, we have learned that LSU will close out with at least 24 commits, and still checking on Patterson for the possible 25th spot."

That would be the 26th spot ..

Yes, LSU is currently sitting at 23. BUT, at least 1 recruit won't be signing their LOI tomorrow because of the possibility that they don't have the grades. There is also the possibility that someone could greyshirt.

Thomas isn't signing but he will be a tiger in the end.
Plus when he states Thompson is the 23rd commitment he is including Thomas in that count.

I know Gino gets a bad wrap but I think hes got better sources than some of the other guys who report on LSU. Id trust Gino over anything posted on TB.com

Gino did flip flop in less than 6 hours... im wondering if it was because some real news came out... or if he just saw Kwon retweet Mettsiah and is trying to connect dots on his own to boost site traffic...

if so:

LINK

"Retweeted by Showtime17Kwon and 118 others"

118 others?!, We're gonna need more schollys!

i guess nothing could be worse for his site than being wrong... so wait for 10 more revisions before its official tomorrow...

He is a idiot and needs to stop posting shite like it is a fact.

Just last month he said Kwon and Howard to LSU like it was a done deal.

If he knows shite changes in recruiting so much, why does he post so much misinformation like it is for sure happening?

Earlier he writes off Kwon completely, now says we get him. Dude is a joke, seriously. I don't know why people follow him.

Maybe because we're at 23 after Thompson and Liggins?

Well, if he does, he needs to learn some journalistic integrity...

Especially in recruiting. I just can't take that dude seriously. At least Pon only posts something he is almost 100% sure about.
