^ This. Not sure why Burton would want to jump ship and take a lateral (at best) job. FSU certainly doesn't have the money to outbid Bama.

Burns was brought in from Clemson and hadn't ever really recruited first-line La. guys. He's done well the past few seasons cherry-picking some.
Folks wanna say its the brand and not the REC, but I'm pretty sure it was a little bit of both.
My theory is that he's not really in as tightly as he'd like to be on the '14 and '15 guys and he might realize that. They've tried their damndest hiring Bradley Sylve's "stepfather" and Denzell Devall's DC at St. Augustine to help woo Fournette. But most realize now that it seems like LSU's going to reel him in.
Beyond that, he's not really "in" on the others like Willis, Noil, Quinn etc in state, and you know Little Nicky wants results or wants you gone.
I think there's also a burnout factor as well. You can only work for Nick for so long. The only guys who can stick around are the ones who couldn't get a job and hold it anywhere else. The Sunseri's & Booby Williamses of the world.
