OP, don't be such a fricking idiot, plz. Harris has to go to camp and impress in order to get a commitable offer from Bama, too. Or is the issue that Bama's camp apparently costs $375 and LSU's is $400?


Harris has an offer and can commit to Alabama per their OC. He does not have to attend camp at Alabama to receive a scholarship to the University of Alabama. See how it works with alot of schools is they come watch him during SPRING PRACTICE. Then they sit down with the kid and interview him. Go through film with him. The OC, who is the guy that like, works with the quarterbacks forms an opinion watching him go through a workout during SPRING PRACTICE. They then offer without the kid having to go to some BS camp that is a money maker for the school.

It's laughable that you actually believe this.

With someone like you advising him, it's no wonder he gets butthurt when he's asked to earn an offer.

Tell him to commit during SPRING PRACTICE, since they offered at SPRING PRACTICE.
Why wait until after SPRING PRACTICE if you received an offer from the back to back National Champion at SPRING PRACTICE???

kk. Well, you seem pretty close to the situation. You ought to tell him to give them a ring and commit and see what happens. I think you'd see that "per their OC" is different than "per Saban" and the Nussmeier will then say "I want him but Coach Saban wants to see him come to camp and throw first"

But maybe you're right, I'm sure LSU jeopordizes their evaluations and recruiting because they want to make $400 at a football camp, idiot.

I understand you are upset, but there are a lot of reasons for LSU not offering at this time. A lot has to do with the seriousness they take with Louisiana offers. You can't just throw them around with in state kids, because those kids might actually jump all over the offer. If it's not commitable, then you've got a lot of burnt bridges.

We, as well as other schools, have the advantage to offer out of state kids and then claim it's not commitable when he tries to commit.

So, it's not a bad thing LSU wants to see him in person. They have a legitimate interest in him, but CC prefers to see his qb in a camp setting. It has nothing to do with money (Which I'm sure they could get waived).


ETA: I'd also like to say congrats to the kid for getting all these offers. Hopefully things work out and he and LSU make things happen. We'll see.

Well I really wish that Brandon would call down to Alabama and tell them he is committing to them. Then you would see that the OC was feeding y'all a line of BS.

I really hope you arent believing this if Brandon is

David Cornwell is their QB and they would take him over Harris 100x over. If they would take a commitment from him it would be pretty shitty of them to do because they would just dump him later if Cornwell wanted on board.

i hate you so much

Harris also claimed an lsu offer at one point and claimed lsu told him he was the best QB in america. It was all a ruse to get his $400.

i know it prolly has been said, but what is he waiting for, tell him to call nussmeier and commit.

quit bitching, there are plenty of kids that go to LSU to earn an offer, like tyrann and others like zhamel thomas that realy wasnt on LSU radar until he camped and got an offer.

Would you rather LSU tell him sorry no offer is coming you way or come to camp, let us evaluate you put you through our drills and see if we want to offer, because as of right now it is you dont have an offer and will not be getting one. Harris is at least third on the QB board Rudolph and kizer impress the coaches more then Harris, Harris has to separate himself from them.
