I hear you KG5989. The Patterson kid has verified "Commitable" offers. Veal kid is going to be good. But the word is out on a number of recruiting boards concerning offers that have not actually taken place. Checkout the Texas 247board and others. Im just saying.

PS the "link" you posted, is a twitter post, which is dated the same date that veal reported the "offers" to rivals.

Notice that neither scout.com nor 247sports show veal with such an from LSU. Maybe one will be coming in the future. But it doesnt exist. I think the offer for 2016 is going to go a QB from a larger school. 1A football in Louisiana is just not enough of a test.

Yea... Mike S took that pic at the camp. And it doesnt say he just got the offer. It says Veal, LSU offer, arrived at camp.

There is an article on rivals that took place on 2/14 that says he has LSU offer, along with UT, Oregon, LA Tech, Hawaii, Georgia Tech, and Houston. Veal didnt report anything to rivals.

I have seen nothing confirmed that says he does not have an offer. Its all here say from people like us on a message board. Mike S, who covers LSU sports, has said he does have an LSU offer.

And just an FYI, there is no such thing as a "legit, committable" offer at this point for these kids. They are basically verbal offers. Just like verbal commits. The schools tell them that they are offering, but its just words until. Until they have the written offer with their name on it, it means nothing. And a player can not receive a written offer until August 1st of their senior season. So, none of these "offers for a 2016 kid, or 2015 for that matter, are committable offers.

And Veal is gonna be better than good. Hes only played football for 2 years, and this was just his 1st season at QB. Kid is gonna improve at a drastic rate by the time hes a senior.
