Was scrolling down twitter and ran into some OU mods and they were talking about how Phillips father and others in his family are pushing him towards LSU and were selling him on how LSU will get him drafted much higher. Also read that he will make a decision on Monday which I believe bodes very well for this side. As it should be stated once again, In Aranda I trust

We are told that the entire OU staff will visit Phillips this upcoming Friday. They certainly have Phillips’ head coach in their corner.




Would that not be a violation as Stoops just visited him earlier this week?

They may have been referencing that meeting they had earlier in the week was what I was thinking.

That's what I have been thinking since earlier this week after Oklahoma visited him with five coaches last Monday. Tuesday the article I read said Oklahoma never asked about LSU and that Jacob never mentioned their planned unofficial trip to LSU to Oklahoma, and that made me think that someone pretty smart like probably his dad was advising Jacob, and then when you figure that his dad is the one paying for this unofficial visit, then it does seem very much like his dad is the one pushing him towards LSU, which is what I have been suspecting was the case ever since I read that article last Tuesday. Indeed, that's why I think we got him.

Apparently, some people at Oklahoma read the same thing I did, added it all up, and came to the same conclusion I did.

Perhaps even more importantly, Phillips tweeted from LSU 'home'

That's worth getting giddy over

Great news, if true.

Just look at the meteoric rise of Duke this year and what Aranda did with LB's at Wisconsin. Then, imagine what he can do with Phillips, Gay, Queen, and errybody else on D.

This is an exciting time to be an LSU recruit. On offense, too. If Canada is worth what he's getting paid, LSU stacked, SEC fuuuucked.

By now I’m sure many of you have seen the snap chat image of Jacob Phillips on his trip to LSU with a caption that says, “home”.


Anybody seen the snap?
