Mathis is likely LSU bound along with Marv and Shelvin.

My guess is Alabama. No knowledge,inside info, but he understands that Alabama has a bigger need this class for him than LSU.

What!?! Cmon man, we need him just as much as they do. There are 5 stars in front of him for both schools.

I know he was at TCU this weekend and today he is not at school. But since he is making his announcement tomorrow, I believe he is picking LSU and getting everything ready for tomorrow.

5* Lawrence, 5* Ed Alexander, 4* Glen Logan in '16
5* Wilson, 4* Tyler Shelvin

He has a better path based on that, IMO

I think that in-home visit with the entire family Thursday locked him in. They(LSU) even visited his dad who's in another state.

You can say the same for Bama with that argument. Either school has other big time talent in the depth chart. He's going to have to work at any school he goes to if he wants to see playing time.

Ed Alexander was a composite 4* for what it is worth.

Bama:

Senior 4* Joshua Frazier. Juniors 5* Daron Payne, 3* OJ Smith and 3* Johnny Dwight. Sophomoroes 4* Raekwon Davis and 4* Quinnen Williams. And In this years class 5* Labryan Ray, 5* Aubrey Solomon, 4* Akiel Byers.

Not including the guys that they rotate in from defensive end to defensive tackle like 5* Dashawn Hand and 4* Isaiah Buggs

Please tell me you understand this

If we finish with Wilson, Shelvin, and Mathis, would that be the best DT recruiting class LSU has ever had?

I do. But as a RS Freshmen, I feel he has an easier time to get on a field at Alabama than at LSU.

Agree to disagree, he goes to bama and he's behind two seniors, two juniors and labryan ray and aubrey solomon.

Won't see the field until his 3rd year. He'd be in the rotation as a RS fresh at LSU

Has CEO asked him to announce early for Bama so Farrell doesn't flip? Just another possibility.

I understand what you're getting at but they don't have to go 'public' with anything if they know what's going on behind the scenes
