....and you think that there’s no alternative motives with Alabama commits and recruits?

when it comes to LSU? There’s a puppet master behind these kids doing these type of things. Check out Shea’s comments on Trey Sanders and what he told the staff for the UGA game.

Think Sanders “being a part of this class,” at some point in the cycle, would have negatively effected the recruitment of Emery and/or Davis looking elsewhere? Maybe Emery sticking with UGA and Davis looking at BAMA a little harder without Sanders (until he flipped on NSD)?

Smoke and mirrors.

Shea: There was a ton of smoke around Trey Sanders and LSU and for good reason. It was leaking out a bit that he had told the LSU side that his interest was high enough to hand over a silent commitment if the visit went well. But Sanders ended up not even visiting for the Alabama game, and it was an odd stretch because Emery decommitted from Georgia a couple weeks prior and then committed to LSU soon after the Alabama game in November. But there was a time in there where LSU had made some headway after only being a dark horse.

Billy: As we heard, heading into the Alabama game weekend, Trey Sanders wanted to officially visit LSU and had told them he was going to commit on the visit. I think LSU saw through this a bit and let him know they wanted him to come, but save the official visit for late in the process. Sanders signed with Alabama after LSU landed John Emery and Tyrion Davis.
