re: Report: LSU blocking Willie Allen from transferring to TCU

IF, and I say IF, TCU was actively recruiting him while on our team, then frick the "PR battle". The PR angle is totally overblown, no one gives a damn outside of Allen, LSU, and TCU and that would blow over quickly as soon as he landed elsewhere.

Agreed The Mick.

There's a more important battle. And that's the one to other schools. I'd sacrifice the "PR" to let schools know that it is not worth the risk of NCAA penalties and resources to do this to LSU. In the end, it was a risk and waste for TCU because he got blocked.

And all it took was a letter to send the message, waste their resources, and create the risk of NCAA penalties. Easy. Why give that up for PR.

As for other recruits, they know what's up. Many schools, including LSU, not to mention various NCAA workshops review said things.
