Will be awesome if he comes to LSU.

If he's trolling, I don't think any LSU faithful will be surprised or butt hurt when he moves into that Tuscaloosa shithole. And karma's a bitch, so I hope he's not trolling for his own sake.

Don't get your hopes up, but consider it a huge helping of lagniappe if he signs with LSU.

This should always be the stance of LSU and I assure you LSU will take whom ever comes first the rest will just be left out. That's the way it is and should be. You never stop recruiting someone, go after all these guys hard and let chips fall where they may. That's how you recruit go after all that fit what you want as hard as the next. Show the best the most attention in the beginning then adjust as you get a feeling but keep up the pressure on all so you never fall back on any. After the results come we will see a Bama type of affect on the big time recruits. They will want to come play for the best period, and they will want to be the winning team. We need to start having big time seasons again, catch a big bowl next year or the playoffs but at least one of the big bowls. This needs to happen next year. Then playoffs the next year or better, and so on. If O can do this we will see much less of this Allen and Moses situation going forward.

what if he's not trolling and still signs with bama, how will you know if it was real consideration or not? just because he doesn't sign with us?

Remember when hootie Jones did something like this when we were recruiting him and Jamal Adams. Wonder if Saban puts them up to this to scare other commits away.

Unless he actually "committed to LSU" then signed with Bama on NSD, how would this even remotely scare recruits away? They all know that depth at LB is thin no matter how many we sign this year. They would all have an opportunity. I think the kid is genuinely torn and had a bad travel experience with the flight delays and so forth.

It's so sad how during his visit everyone was praising Allen and hoping he flipped and now people are shitting on him left and right. If the kid wants to be at LSU, he will be at LSU.

Rather have Allen then D. Moses but think he is all Bama.

I still think Moses ends up at LSU. I mean he is all LSU. Who cares if he never mentioned us in his top 5 for the last year, who cares that he signed financial aid papers with Bama. He will transfer after a year at Bama.

He just tweeted how Home Sounds nice.


Could Nick have asked him to troll to make the LB's looking at LSU back off?

Not sure if this is something opposing coaches do but if the kid really is not attending LSU would it not be in his favor to keep the Tigers from loading up on defense

This may be conspiracy theory or does this happen

Pretty damn sure it happens. Just like negative recruiting happens. And now there's "Womacking" another school to add to the list.

It's a dirty business and like Bear Bryant said, if you ain't cheating you ain't trying.

Delete that post. We don't talk about recruits that way.

Don't do it again.

Let them.

When has a recruit allowed anonymous message board comments to directly effect their decision?

If our staff can't combat a few negative comments based off of negative actions of a few, then why do they get paid so much?

The day after his Bama visit? Unfortunately, this sounds fishy.

We had two amazing stud LB's here this weekend. Sounds like Bama trying to interfere.

I would not put it past Saban to pull something like this (I do remember Jones suddenly acting like he might prefer LSU when LSU started going after Adams, which I do think was Saban's Machiavellian games in that case to throw LSU off of Adams), but I don't think it's the case with Chris Allen. This guy seems genuinely torn.
