I completely understand there are limited flights from BR to L.A. and that Cameron is going to visit Adoree. I'll just say it's a convenient coincidence and leave it at that. By no means am I saying this is any sort of recruiting violation or implying that other schools, including A&M, do not partake in similar or seemingly more dirty recruiting methods.

I am simply stating it's a bit odd and question how a few high profile recruits will feel about the whole situation. Who knows how or if it will affect the recruiting process in any way but I would be highly surprised if they were excited to see Cameron on the same flight. If this was Alabama, you all know good and well you would be claiming foul play. It's all about perspective.

And to say that Louisiana football players aren't pressured to play in-state (LSU) is simply a joke and everyone knows it. I'm not saying it's a bad thing either, y'all typically clean shop and take who you please from the home state. Speedy, however, was a fortunate exception for the good guys. Hopefully young will follow suit but I'm not holding my breath.

You calling A&M good guys. That is a joke. Your coach does not care how he wins. He does not drug test. Infact your Manziel doesn't like being in college station.

Referring to my alma mater as the good guys has no implication on how I view our football and recruiting policies. And Manziel has declared for the draft, time to move along. A bit of advice, don't throw stones in a glass house.

Oh good, right on cue. Defaulting to Aggie homo jokes, how mature and insightful of you.

Do y'all really think this is clever? I think it's obsessive, approaching borderline creepy. Think about it. These instate blue chip LA recruits have been badgered by everyone to commit to LSU since being juniors in high school. So they finally get an opportunity to get away from Louisiana and the LSU sales pitch to visit another school and they put Cameron on the same 3 hour flight "coincidentally". This situation is the equivalent of having a high school fling with a girl but not ready to commit to a relationship. You take another girl out to the movies to test the waters to help make a decision on who you want to commit to. But on your movie date with the second girl, the original fling's mom just so happened to be sitting next to you in the same movie theatre. LSU needs to tap the breaks to save face and avoid looking so desperate

Actually, there are no more weekends left to visit recruits after this one before NSD. Since we know the JC recruits are getting in all of their OVs, it seems more like a coincidence. Again, this is it for everyone before NSD.

Again, I'm sure the recruits were well aware that Cam was going to be on the same flight. It'd be idiotic to not inform them beforehand.

You really don't know what you're talking about. Yes, LA players are typically pushed towards LSU. But JC DOES NOT do this. He let's his kid go wherever and ENCOURAGES them to take visits to other places. Again, this is a fact. Don't pretend to know more about LA HS's than people who are from LA.

Bwahahaha!! That article was pure gold. One of my favorite parts was that the author wasn't going to imply that Les Miles or LSU had anything to do with Cameron's actions. Lol. WHAT? Of course they did and it was genius! frick those powder blue pussies .

So Cameron's being on the same plane is worse than Sumlin promising no drug tests? Got it.
