Said he enjoyed his in home with Miles and Wilson. Said LSU has done a good job recruiting him.

Says Alabama feels like a second home. Article says he plans to commit on Jan 4th and take an official to LSU on Jan 18. When asked if he'd really do that he said:

Where is this article from? Article on 247 after the in-home had a very different vibe.

Just from reading that quote, it could be interpreted that he's saying he'll commit (to some team) on the 4th. When asked if he'd really commit to Bama, then visit LSU afterwards, he says thinks Bama would not like that. The fact he's planning to visit LSU after he commits to a team on the 4th, coupled with his comments, could lead one to believe he knows it's LSU.

Plus Sonny and Shea both feel like it's LSU at this point, and they aren't just guessing - they have contacts at LSU and Bama.

I love this guy. He's super athletic. Could fill a DE or LB need for LSU. I honestly think he's the best athlete in the state, IMO of course. Just personal opinion but I think he ends up at DE and becomes a beast.

I am not sure what the hell to take from the kid's comment.

However, if he's saying that he wants to commit to BAMA on Jan. 4th, and depending on what Saban tells him, he'll throw LSU a bone and visit here on Jan. 18th......

That really rubs me like a really cocky, ego-maniacle move. It would be a lot like LC - wasting our time - which helps BAMA.

However, I haven't read anything to lead me to believe that Beckwith is that sort of a headcase.

If I'm wrong, please tell me how!

I don't know how you spin this to look good for LSU. Mini-man doesn't want him tripping to LSU after making a commitment during AA game...

It'd be very odd of him to commit to Bama and then take an official to LSU...

That's just my opinion

Beckwith will be a tiger. Bama coaches see the writing on the wall and have all but stopped recruiting him.

I will be suprised if Beckwith signs with LSU. His recruitment feels like a Bama silent commitment.

Texas is where the talent is, and we need to get more involved there.
