JD doesn't need me defending him but he never said that. The fact that you read doom and gloom into his "momentum shift" tweet is your failure, not his.

Reading that article makes me thinks he isn't.
No where did Akers say anything remotely positive, and Charles said "his gut tells him".

He'd still see the field at LSU, but I've kinda got the feelin he'd have more immediate playing time at FSU even with Jacques Patrick there

He would get significant carries next season and be the man in 2018 at LSU. If Guice missed time due to injuries, he could end up getting most of the carries next season.

No denying that at all I just believe that Akers could possibly step in right away and be the main guy at FSU hard to do at LSU since Guice is so good.

I was told from an Ole Miss booster in Jackson that it's Florida State and was about $600k. He's been getting a lot of pressure to go anywhere but LSU.


In what form? Certainly not cash. That's not usually how the bulk of it is delivered

People upset about losing out on Akers should be more concerned with getting the best OL, DL, and LB'ers.

Big mistake on his part IMO. Not because he's not coming to LSU but IMO his style fits LSU much more. It's pretty simple if LF would have been in this current system at LSU he would have won the heisman, that and Cam is a smarter runner than LF. Patience is huge for a back and LF didn't still doesn't have much of that. With a little patience LF could have done bigger things at LSU even in the Les offense. Tiger bait now... It's Travis E time.

Very true. We don't have a problem with RB's. We need
DT's, QB's, OL then LB's.
