I'm starting to think they leave at least 3.

Once the Arch Manning ship sailed, AJ seemed like an easy target to drop to make numbers work, even if this rumored event never happened. Hopefully Bo Bordelon grey shirts or goes PWO too. It’s detrimental for the team to have him take a spot in the 25. We need the spots to build depth at some key positions.

The pulling of the offer has nothing to do with the “Arch ship sailing”. More details will come out.

Didn’t expect him in the class just like Hill

Yea hill was another questionable take. Just simply not LSU caliber. Can’t afford to waste spots on projects even if it means upsetting those supposed called “Karr” coaches.

If we don't expect Hill then what DT are we taking?

Wiggins and Tapp would be DEs

Only ending up with Shone wouldn't be ideal

I just don't think that's realistic and a pipe dream.

I think more realistic is we get 1 of the following.

Perkins, Arbor, Lucas, Armella

Rumors with other ball players and coaches in the area is that he stole a few things from the house. If that is the case, he is not still living with the Manning family.

I just hope the kid realized the opportunities that are in front of him and wakes up. LSU or no LSU.

1 of the 4, ha ha - look man, it’s a free country and all, but we see your post on other boards and know your not a LSU fan, your shtick is getting really old really fast. Geaux play with your Aggie friends. Have Great Day.

I would think Hill has a spot in the class for several reasons: We only signed 1 true DT last class, we don't have any other DT's in the current class, he's from a school that churns out college prospects, he has a teammate in this class we really covet, and he has some upside to develop into a nice rotational guy one day. I hope we keep him.

I know they were crunching numbers, they weren’t gonna process any WR, but since this has happened the likelihood of Malik Agbo from Washington just went up exponentially. He will not be offered as OT though, they will offer as IOL. I honestly don’t know if accepts the position change. He has been wanting to commit for some time, that was at OT. I also think that staff must feel REAL good about Armella.

Classic deflection when you disagree with anyone. Your schtick is old as well claiming to have sources but just regurgitating 24/7 notes to this board.

Objectively speaking every single year in recruiting there's a grandiose wish list and it never comes to fruition. Since O has taken over, specifically, we typically have this many recruits on board before season starts then lose 2/3 then he finishes strong with remaining in state LA kids that are uncommitted. He alsways pulls some name we never even know about at the end but that's usually just 1 recruit.

But please continue to believe we are going to finish with all of these out of state blue chip recruits which would put us at 25? If we get matthews back and close on Law, Wiggins, Tapp, Thomas/Ausberry. (I dropped AJ and Hill from current but added the 4 you just laughed at me about plus what I just listed above) that's 25 and objectively speaking if you think we close with that then that's your preference but to laugh off posters that are taking a step back then have at it.

Damn Cooper let’s him live with his family and if true he does something like that. That’s messed up.

If true you get this man on campus and figure it out later. Russell Shepard was a perfect example of this. Give the men a chance, if you they don't cut it at that position, then talk to them about moving.

If the staff is convinced his is good enough to be on this team at another position, then its worth the risk.

OK brother, if you actually read my post, at least I have the decency to say the VERY FEW things I get from 247 I say is from 247. I am sorry that me having a positive outlook on things offends you so greatly. There is places to go for people suffering chronic depression, just saying. Jealousy is also no way to go thru life. I tell you what, maybe I can put an end to your questions about where I get some of my info, if he says it’s OK I ll take picture of whom I am having lunch with today. And post it. What you wanna bet I never here your BS anymore. How bout $100 to our favorite charity ? Peace bro.

Let’s be clear, the Mannings weren’t doing some act of charity taking the kid in. You think they would have housed him if he was a debate or band team member instead of a 4-star wideout? It was simply a recruiting tool to help Arch. Sounds like they got burned.
