Never said it was ideal. Do I think it means he’s still thinking, or worse changed his mind? No. Just like others have stated this cats whining has went on since EARLY June and has become tiresome.

Everyone on this board talks about how you have to look at the recruits actions to get an idea of where they’re leaning at the moment..well pushing back a commitment when he was originally penciled into LSU’s class should cause concern
“He’s just editing a video!!” That doesn’t take 5 days.. Maybe it will take five days to reshoot an A&M commitment video. But not editing an LSU commitment video if it’s already been shot.
There should be some concern here. A&M is desperate. LSU’s staff can’t lose out on him at this point. It’s not like T Curtis or Arch or Eli. Kylin wanted to come here. You have to get this win in recruiting along with Zalance and Collins

(sorry tiger, I should have responded to OK, not you.)
My goodness dude, let it go. You can be objective and still read the tea leaves, and just because it's the last thing he did? my goodness... I still feel the staff can do there job and finish, even if they have to sweat. I mean we really have until signing day anyway. Anything can happen. I'm just not going to be "concerned" about something so trivial.
It's like OK is just a little gunshy. Not a lot, but just enough that he keeps things on edge for himself and lets others know it. It's like doubting Thomas. He has to see it to believe it or he just thinks he has to remind us of his anxious possibilities... I guess I just don't feel the need to point out the obvious... Of course we know he can choose A&M. Clearly we know that. It's just you put a little to much uncertainty on everything. Him staying for our party instead of A&M is so much weightier than a 5 day push back, I just choose not to post about it or worry. So if he picks A&M, SO WHAT?? you move on and CONTINUE TO RECRUIT to the best of your ability. Do what you can do and move on. Unless maybe you're gonna look for someone to blame if things don't go your way.

Try being a little bit more objective, buddy

Dude you literally say this about every fricking Louisiana recruit. Yeah we get it. Recruiting Louisiana is important. We all know that. It's just annoying that you only seem to want to post on here, the majority of the time at least, that we have to get this guy or that guy or cbk isn't doing his job well enough or we are falling so far behind.
I think in almost every instance you have cried or whined about us potentially missing an in state recruit they were either not coming here realistically because they wanted to go out of state or they end up committing here. Why don't you just not worry so much or at least stop posting every time you do.
And yeah I get it. These types of recruits are important to get but hold off on panicking or being contrary every time a recruit does something.

Good point. I'm sure both schools have been pushing hard for awhile now, but to your point, his decision has already been made. Just gotta get the production completed.

Don’t speak Facts to these idiots. Majority of people, like myself, still think he will be a Tiger.
Yet, the moment you want to be objective, and say pushing back Jackson’s recruitment was a little concerning, this whole board fricking melts because you didn’t pump sunshine and rainbows.
This echo chamber can be worse than Twitter at times.

Haven’t been saying that since the tide turned in recruiting. Pay attention to what I actually post.

See people say this but, don’t realize I’m celebrating recruiting wins just as often as making a “contrary” post. Every time I post something that isn’t the status quo around people will downvote blindly because they’re upset simply from a difference in opinion.
Paragraph long responses from multiple posters all because someone dared to say something they disagreed with. It’s the rant. People are just sensitive on here. I’m gonna continue to post and probably get downvoted regardless whether it’s positive or negative.

the thread got whacked early this morning but was talking on Twitter about how this time last year people were claiming A$M were buying recruits but don’t blink an eye when you get a big time recruit after being 5-7
Everyone buys recruits, always has...but unlike LSU, when you don't have a history of pulling in recruits that consistently lands you in the top 10, then you do it to the degree 8&4 did last year, it sends a red flag...kinda like you always get back $1500-$2000 on your tax return then suddenly you get $10,000, yeah, you're going to get looked at...

What’s the latest on Kylin, guys?
Posted on 8/11/22 at 9:47 am to Ironhead985
He’s gonna put on that yella jersey

Even after the delay (which clearly had some people here shaking in their boots), nothing seems to have changed. All good guys from what the industry is saying.

Not “people”, just a person.

Thought I saw on Twitter he was committing live on Culotta. I could have misread but it seems like he is all LSU.

I prefer not to call people out when possible, as I’ve had shitty takes in the past myself. But, yes, I was referencing a person.

These kids change their minds and shite happens in love, war, and recruiting.
Many years ago a kid committed personally to Les Miles about 6 pm on day before signing day. It was widely reported by LSU guys, Danny Don etc and I personally talked to his brother that night who was in the room, and confirmed. However, later than night some bagman arrived and the next day he shocked everyone by signing with someone else. Kid still wanted to go to LSU mom wanted the money.
What everyone reported was correct but it didn’t matter

That pool party was last week.. Recruiting can change on a day-to-day basis. Whatever A&M said THIS weekend after he ghosted them must've had an effect on him if he pushed back his recruitment to reconsider just between LSU and A&M
This doesn't even make sense.
I get the impression you almost want him to commit to arse&m.
