Texas fired their shot. He gave them a silent and then turned around and said nah and gave LSU one as well. LSU hasnt even used their official visit yet. The dude was all LSU until Texas offered to drive a dumptruck of money to his house and threw him a circus on his OV and even then he turned around and told LSU thats what feels like home. This one is over. Welcome to the SEC Texas.

Told LSU that LSU feels like home, or told LSU that Texas feels like home?

He’s doing his job and creating as much buzz as he can for whatever school he chooses. I think he’s been very professional about how he goes about his business.

He just did a Texas Longhorns video on IG. It was weak compared to LSU IG video. I figured he would drop one with them.

He’s posting it so Texas ups their offer

He will then do the same with Texas stuff 2 days before his commitment date

I hate comments like this. You create your own narrative of who these kids are. And when they come to LSU, you want to act like their biggest fan. We don’t need fans like you.

I’m not hating on him for doing it. College football is a business and this could be the best time for him to earn a huge paycheck.

If you think this doesn’t happen, I know someone who is fixated on believing their own narrative

He didn't say this never happens. He didn't like that you assumed that's what Simmons is doing. There's not any evidence suggesting he's playing the two teams off each other (not that there would be much if any of that), and suggesting that he's only coming to LSU because we gave him a better NIL deal can tarnish people's view of a player. Frankly, he's got a point. I prefer to think that Simmons wanted to be a tiger all along, got similar NIL deals from LSU and other schools, and enjoyed the Bayou Bash so much that his mind was made up to become a tiger.

You can want to be a tiger the entire time but still want to maximize your earning potential.

IMO there’s nothing wrong with that as long as you don’t play the game where you commit to one team publicly just to deter other commitments knowing you’re going to flip to a different school

Whether you feel there is anything wrong with this particular behavior is beside the point. You are suggesting that Simmons is doing something without any evidence whatsoever.

So how are you explaining the UT video posted earlier this week and the Miami video posted and deleted yesterday?

It’s EXACTLY what I said would happen.

Didn’t one the “experts” say that his family wanted Texas? That would point out to me that he wants LSU too. Based on his behavior. He’s young and getting so much attention from everyone. He’s eating this up.
