Bashing recruits

Remember these are 16-19 yr old kids. Though we want them to commit to the home school for our reasons, ultimately it's their life decision to make. Now remember it goes both ways....you have some who are offered, who choses to go elsewhere,(speedy) and we have some who dream of attending their main state school, but aren't offered and they are forced to go elsewhere. (Eddie lacy). Lets all remember they are still kids so no need extending threats to them and their families, if they decide not to choose the school of your choice.
Now I am aware of speedy being threatened to attend LSU before his announcement which magnified after his announcement (not sure if these are true LSU fans doing this or some imposter wrecking havoc). So instead of bashing those who don't choose LSU let's give congrats and say yes Louisiana has plenty of talent that spreads from Florida (Gerald Willis) to Hawaii (Daniel Lewis)

On one hand I wish these kids would've chosen LSU, but on the other I applaude them for leaving the state and breaking out of their comfort zone that is home.

karralum,
You can tell by the downvotes and the subsequent posts telling you "how stupid you are" that this board has a vocal minority that paints us LSU fans as pathetic lil boys that got dissed by some girl for the prom.
The guys on this board that are over 14 years old are in line with you on this subject. How the admins here don't cut the threads that bash a particular recruit for going out of state is beyond me.
These guys are 16 years old and make a few improperly placed statements. Let them be the immature ones....the minority will then pile on and be just as wrong as they think they are.
Every fan base has them.

I for one despise people who feel it necessary to bash a recruit on a website for anything. Opinions are fine but when one crosses the line and makes statements that can be per ieved as bashing it has gone way to far. I will also say that if we think a recruit bases his decision on what he reads on a recruiting message board then we all are taking ourselves and this hobby a little to serious

Thanks for some perspective! I send edward jones $100 a month, with the dream my 4 yr.old can get a LSU education and have an exexperience I never did.That being said,what a dream it would be for Chi Dupre's father to hear him say,"dad,I want to go to UCLA to play football and work towards becoming a doctor".How proud that man should be.Some fools obviously have no
idea what is sound decision making! And to bash an 18 yr old for making a that type of decision, which I hope he doesn't,makes me think you would think in line with a ten yr old

I agree, but you should learn to use the search function because this has been discussed a lot in other threads. A new thread was not needed

Please elaborate.
You need to post this on the Rant, not here. The usuals here don't bash, but this time of year all the idiots come here.
Also, you're delusional if you don't believe kids lied to the LSU Staff.
Lastly, this is discussed weekly on here, use the search feature.
