we spent recruiting funds on an in home not too long ago. The kid wasn't coming here, according to multiple reports he listed LSU as his #1, if grades were an issue he'd just hold off on committing until he had an idea where he stood academically. He didn't choose State because he didn't have an offer from LSU, that's where he wanted to go.


Dude. LSU invited him to camp and he didn't come. LSU coaches went to his school and he wouldn't work out in front of them. He's a grade risk. The coaches have several other running rated higher. If LSU really wanted him they probably would have offered him a scholarship.

We stopped recruiting him for good in June.He felt disrespected for whatever reason and just stopped showing interest when we tried to keep showing him some.

Kid has All-SEC type of skills but he is going to have to work is butt off this year to be able to make his grades .It can be done but I have no faith in Hattiesburg HS having the things in place that he will need to make it.He needed to understand we can't be taking a grade risk at RB.

Either way LSU and Franklin have been done for going on two months now.
