re: 1/2 Questions/Revisit

What I read this morning on a premium board:

Speedy was told that he wouldn't be tested for drugs at A$M "Straight from the coaches mouth"

this was confirmed by another source that Speed asked the LSU staff a similar type question about testing...so he was worried some habits would be dealt with...and Ellis was a big part of swinging him to A$M.

Tony Brown just flat out lied to the Coaches.

Willis made a 14 on his ACT test and will have to make up some ground up to qualify at UF.

Both Willis and Noil appear to be two guys that might be trouble, but make no mistake that are elite talents.

Brown, Speedy and Willis all 3 told the LSU coaches they were coming. Miles was shocked while eating popcorn watching the 5 for 5 announcements on 1/2.

For some reason I feel like Brown is going to be injury prone and fall back to Track and I would wager that Speedy and or Willis will be in the newpaper for Character type issues.

Youth can be a tough thing, I'd still love to have these players...but we can at least look at the situation objectively...and I really don't know if it's all the bad losing Speedy and Willis

We will know in 3 years.

It was also suggested the had Saban went to Texas, we might have lost Fournette.

The Saban factor is very very strong pull for kids, they want to play for the best (at least that appears to be the perception out there)... We just have to accept it.
