Brian Thomas Jr tidbit

I think there's a lot of truth to his dad not being fond of LSU for whatever reason and looking more into A&M/Bama in that respect, I however refuse to buy we are not contacting Thomas Jr. at all. Sorry, but that's 1 thing O would never let happen, he is a tireless recruiter and they have set times everyday to catch up with folks they are recruiting.

I dk whether to believe this or not, but I kinda feel like our fanbase as a whole is underrating the importance of landing 4 stud WR in this year's class.


Considering how thin our current freshman and sophomore classes are when it comes to surefire WR talent, we absolutely 100% need the 2021 class to be stacked at that position. Now, none of this is to say that Koy moore and Alex Adams and Trey Palmer won't turn out to be good--i personally think moore will be a stud slot guy eventually--but they're all far from guarantees. We need to load up so that the math is in our favor once more.



So especially considering the fact that WR is the spot where we've heard the most smoke about possible decommitments (deion smith and jojo in particular*), it's imperative that we fill that 4th spot with BTJ or someone else who's legit.




*Not at all saying that either of these guys will decommit--just saying that I've seen rumblings about it here and there

I call bullshite to this. Coach O and staff is relentless in recruiting. Will they get everyone they are after? Probably not, but one thing is undeniable is, there's no way in hell the staff is not recruiting or talking to Brian Thomas Jr on a consistent basis.

this is an old rumor.

I can assure you O and Joseph et all are on him.

Also the NIL conversation is being had by everyone. LSU actually hired the same firm as several other power 5 universities to spearhead their approach to marketing this to athletic prospects.

I know he loves bama and their recent success churning out top notch wrs is nothing to discount. But LSU has as well and we have some people in oir corner, namely Chris Hilton, and Jalen Cook (pg on the basketball team) who is Thomas's best friend.

Bama probably leads 55-45 right now, but don't think LSU is taking him for granted. That's a giant exaggeration

Hilton, Jojo, Deion and Keon.

Keon is a freak of nature.
Would rather go in for someone like that that miss out on both.

We let go of Coxie and he turned out to be a beast at Memphis.

The rumor of Coach & LSU not contacting BT jr is just that - a rumor. The kid has been a Bama fan for years. He also knows that playing for the “home team” has advantages. Such as close friends, family etc..and LSU appeals to him. A&M is just the shiny new thing. He and his family have been doing the right thing and weighing all options and not making any rash decision.

No time to play games in recruiting. If he and his dad want him to go elsewhere, let him go. Let’s keep our three current commits and go get Hill, Nabors, Bech, or Coleman.
