Some think we are burning this kid. Not every kid that wants to go to LSU can.

Right, just the ones who are offered and fulfill the conditions of that offer, if conditional. If LSU reneges on it's word, it would be a blight on our record of integrity.

quote:

Same with every program. I dont think we see ware, ford and blue all jet next year. Still leaves us with the two guys we all thought would be stars, hill and hilliard, Magee and one of the 3 others. We would still have a loaded backfield.


LSU isn't every program. It isn't a matter of the disposition of our backfield, it's a matter of honor. Do we keep our word, or let ends justify means? Grayshirts in this class seem like the only way out of this number crunch that salvages our reputation and good name.

When appropriate, the staff owes its alum and fan base a public explanation regarding this young man and an accounting to guarantee we did the right thing in this matter. It does not matter if our sports teams represent the university with excellence if the university itself fails to maintain the highest ethical standards and moral values. When expediency trumps principle, we have lost what truly matters.

Good Lord...Quit being a naive clown. The only condition on these offers is whether the head coach will accept the offer at the time the player decides. Things change from the time the offer is made to the acceptance decision. Priorities change based on who has already been accepted and who remains on the board. Slow playing him is not deceiving him because if the right set of circumstances unfold, they probably will take him. The rules of the game cause things to play out this way and it's not unprincipled.
