pretty sure bastrop's got some ex-evangel peeps running the show now.

Ahhh...this makes sense. I knew about the Bradshaw thing...but this puts it together for me. Thanks.

Going to Bama over A&M was kind of an F-U move by the kid, but I'll live.

That's just ridiculous. Kid has a chance to go play for the #2 program in the nation. I highly doubt he's basing his decision on which school(s) he can insult the most by going elsewhere.

I went to one Bastrop game this year....Ruston ran all over them. Was not impressed with Devall, but that was just one game.

Would be a much bigger loss if the state wasn't so deep in LB'ers this year. As it stands, I kinda feel like whatever...if he passes on LSU in favor of any school, recent history tells us he is passing on his best chance of success in football.

his stupidity is astounding

Congrats to the kid. I hope he does well in every game of his career except for when he plays LSU.


Him going to Bama doesn't bother me one bit.

If they start cherry picking, then I'm gonna have a big problem. However, that isn't happening and isn't going to happen.

Its not over until Feb. who knows how strong LSU is actually pursuing him? This could change.

So does this mean I don't have to apologize now?

I'll never be worried about the ones they get when they sign outta high school. I'll be worried when in college they start turning out any better than robby green, luther davis, kenny bell, darrington sentimore, and you could even say eddie lacey even though he is a quality player. The thinking is that as long as LSU has players in those positions that have proven themselves to be as good or better in college, we're cool. So far that has been the case beyond any shadow of doubt.

Congrats to Bama and to Devall. It's his choice and to me was the choice all along. Been talk that he's been silent since Nov 5 and I don't doubt it a bit. No hard feelings for me at all. An expected loss that I wanted at LSU but don't think is necessary. He is the 2nd best player in the state according to the experts so anyone that says he isn't good is kidding themselves. There is a reason he was the 1st lb offer this year.(Granier was technically last year)

This has no bearing on Phillips. He has always had a spot and always will. He's Chavis' guy and Chavis will take him no matter when.
