I've never been a highly touted recruit (obviously), but I just can't understand what makes a guy pick a school like UCLA over LSU. What do they have that we don't, other than being in LA? They have virtually no shot at going to or winning the NC in the next four years, we do. We send a ton of DBs to the NFL and have been a straight up pipeline for them since we got Chavis.. I just don't understand. What is it that these guys are looking for?

There are reasons.

1. L.A. >>>>>>>>>>> Baton Rouge
2. UCLA academia >>>> LSU academia
3. UCLA is closer to family for them.
4. They wanted to play together.
5. UCLA has an NFL-experienced coach. That may mean something to them.
6. Maybe they want to build a tradition

The reality is that all kids don't value winning a national championship. Some just want to get to the league and make money.

People are too wrapped up, he picked a D1 school from a BCS conference, he will get TV exposure and if he can play at the next level then he will be drafted highly.
shite it isn't like he picked some shitty school in a shitty conference like ULL over LSU

Really?

UCLA has a former NFL Head Coach & DC, they are also vastly superior school.
