He is not "scared". he simply used that as one criterion in selecting LSU. That is fair. He gets to choose where HE plays.

No reason to be upset with him or think poorly of him.


This was NOT unexpected and both he and LSU can do quite well with this decision.


he must have a lot of respect for Hill's ability

I personally would not let another individual's choice of school effect my school of choice...that's just me

good luck to him

Probably. Hill is pretty special

I've personally never been recruited by the likes of LSU. So, I have no idea what I would do. But, all I am saying is that Bourque was honest and up-front from the very beginning. I can't demand any more than that.

LSU plays 4 RBs during any given game. You need more depth at RB than you do at QB.

Does that make any sense to you, or do you not understand?


So, why did Kiel want to be the only QB taken? Since you're so smart, you should know.

So what happens with his cousin Kavahra Holmes? Is he a tiger or were we just recruiting him to get Bourque?

I would think he sticks, but who knows. With 5 stars beating down the doors, not really worried about it, at the skill positions.

I have no idea why you are asking me questions about gunner kiel in a thread about RBs.

Since you changed the subject, I will assume you understood me.

Agreed. He's not pulling a Janzen Jackson or anything. Best of luck to him, but I hope he goes to a non-SEC team.

doubt he goes anywhere. Somebody said he would be a project, but he does have world class speed

t's easy to see the rantards and their negativity in this thread. LSU just dodged a ak-47 hollow point and you all are griping. The boy is a boosie-soulja slim want to be with a premadona attitude. Do not want any gangster divas.


damn dude not to call you out put that is some pretty serious hate - how do you know all this stuff living off in Cali?

That's a damn good question. I'm hoping we could somehow swing Alanzo Moore.

meh, idk about all that shite, but it's puzzling that a RB doesn't want any other RBs in his class. You acutally need depth at RB. U cant sign one RB per year.

No, my point was, saying someone is scared because they want to be the only player at this position accepted works both ways. I don;t care how many RBs take the field. Competition is competition. There's less competion at QB, and Kiel wanted to be the only one taken. By your logic, he's scared of competition. Or does that only apply to players who decommit from LSU?

Possible GS candidate. He is going to need time to develop anyway.

do you understand the simple fact that teams need more RBs on the roster than they do QBs? To have a QB say he wants to be the only one in the class isn't that strange. How many teams play multiple QBs in one game? Not many. How many teams plays multiple RBs in one game? About 119.

I dont care about Gunner wanting to be the only QB, we dont need 6 or 7 Qbs on scholly, like we do RBs.
