He was just on 104.5 and said (paraphrase) ...

Elias Ricks- is " very very solid" to LSU, will take visits but "will be beyond shocked if he's anywhere but at LSU"

Jermaine Burton - again said solid , very positive on twitter discussing LSU offense and tweets Jarrett talking about them playing together in New offense

Rakim Jarrett - said he's more solid to LSU than many think, sees nothing to think he will be anywhere but LSU

Marcus Dumervil - talked to him this past weekend, Billy said he's high on LSU, said family wants him closer to home. Billy it's "only a 3hr drive longer" (to BR vs Gainesville) and thinks that is not a deal breaker. LSU and Florida battle. Said LSU is in a great spot.

Jordan Burch - good visit, but LSU not a real player

I just couldn’t fathom how a wide receiver would commit to LSU prior to this season and now decide to go elsewhere.

That's a good point. If you liked LSU before this season, you have to be loving us now.

Burch visited in the spring and he said coach Oand the staff could probably get him back on campus but may not be real players for him

It’s 4 hours & 40 mins from Ft L to Gainesville.
It’s a13-hour drive from Ft L to BR.

Where does that 3 hour drive come into context?

They could book every game once the schedule comes out, on SW Air for $99 each way to NO

Somebody set Elvis up with a heavily discounted cush spread... for *cough* guests and family to have extended stays in BR.

Make sure there's weight room and 50 yds of coned of field in the back yard.

Pretty sure what he said was that it was a 3 hr difference in the drive

So, the strength of offense has two reasons this year: Joe Brady and Joe Burrow.
We're losing one this year.

Now, is Myles going to be as good as Burrow next year? Maybe, Maybe not, Maybe he will be as good as Burrow in his second year.
I just want to say it's not as simple as you may think it is. But, I hope we get their signature, and a couple of Texas/Georgia ones, too.

If is season hasn’t won over Jarrett and Burton then I don’t know what can. Also Ricks plus Stingley for two year will be incredible

It's not though. It's an 8 hour drive from BR to Gainesville. Maybe he means his parents want him there because it's only a 3 hour drive to UF and that's understandable.

Only logic would be fear of the current guys in roster and in the class

Yet BR is 8.5 hours further than Gainesville from Fort Lauderdale. So it makes no sense.

I’m assuming the kid lives in FtL since he goes to HS there.

Gotcha. Weird though, I mean I was working and kinda half listening but he definitely said something about a 3 hr difference not being that big of a deal.

Yeah Embody didn't specify, but that's what I assume. Edited for better wording.

I'm sure "someone" could help with the airfare also.
