Coach O was at Walker High School today visiting with Brian Thomas Jr. I was starting to wonder if Coach O had thrown the towel in on him since Saban was on campus to see him after the regular season and both Bama and Georgia had coaches at Walker basketball games to watch him. I have been hearing whispers that his dad is infatuated with Saban and Bama so I guess we'll see on him. The kid is a freak athlete that I hope joins his buddy Jalen Cook in P & G.

It sounds like the general thought is he will likely go to Alabama. But you can't discount what LSU did on offense this year. LSU's WR's were every bit as productive as Bama's group. If not more. Now, O has to show they can continue to have similar success in the passing game without Brady and Burrow. But no longer can opposing coaches definitively say LSU is a graveyard for great WR's and QB's.

There’s ages till he’s gonna commit though. Agiye Hall is a pretty similar player. Maybe we get him but If BAMA or Clemson get him then we really should turn the heat up on Brian. He’s like 6-4.

Coach O was busy winning a National Championship. If this kid cannot see the love and adulation being given to players locally, he's too dumb to play here.

"starting to wonder if Coach O had thrown the towel in on him since Saban was on campus"

So you wonder if Coach O stops recruiting a player once Saban comes into the picture? Are you insane?

Is this hyperbole?
Would any LSU coach give up on a La top ten talent?

He is a really good Basketball player as well. Any chance he plays BB as well? If so Wade could be an influence.
