The questions the staff has pertains to the prospect's potential

I know...you're in complete and utter disbelief. But, there are some questions pertaining to his physicality. The big ones, however, are sort of out of his control, if you follow me.

that's actually pretty standard, yet I've never heard of our coaches offering a kid an uncommitable offer after dominating a camp a year and half before his NSD.

You have now...and it isn't all too uncommon. Again, offers are verbal right now, unless the kid wants to sign and get it over with early.

well, did we tell him he needs to get better or did we tell him we need to strike out on guys better than him before he gets his offer?

We told him what he needs to work on, of course...we're not going to tell him that he's a backup plan. He's knows, however, that he's not LSU's #1 WR option...everyone knows this. He must compete for his spot, like he has been.

I mentioned him getting in if we miss on some other guys, because I personally feel like this is the most likely scenario. Don't forget, we went after Upchurch from TX, and we're after Blacknail from NJ...we're pursuing our preferred targets accordingly.

I find it very strange that you were posting in a thread in January and you questioned his physicality yet never mentioned any type of inside sources and you seemed very unsure of yourself. You based your concerns on a picture of Quinn. Now a few months later you "know people" and LSUs coaches question his physicality.

This is all completely false, and yes, I know for a fact. It is a shame that somebody who has no clue would take the time to write this.

This information is incorrect as I understand it.
I think you are implying the kids can sign now. They cannot. Not until NSD. ALL commits are verbal until then.
