Any time a kid doesn't pick LSU the scorned go full on tard.
Sometimes it is part of the practice now (see Perrilloux and JC Copeland). Regardless, it's unsavory.

He led the staff on roger
He straight up lied.
And encouraged Torshiro to lie.
In the process, he cost LSU time it could have been contacting other recruits.

I don't know what he told the LSU or Texas staff and I don't trust those who run recruiting sites to tell me.
He is gone, was one of the best commits LSU had, time to move on. He made the decision he felt was best for him. The LSU staff had trouble closing this year for some reason, one year isn't going to kill the program. No sense in being bashing his coach, whoever else based on rumor

What a shocker to see Roger here discussing the merits of a player fricking us over.

I would bet the opinion of a certain former LSU player and family had alot to do with Holmes, Davis, and Devall's attitude toward the program.

OMG he can bold words. Way to go Roger, trying to be the moral compass on the recruiting board during every possible meltdown.

Typing the guy is a scumbag doesn't correlate to me throwing my computer down the stairs no matter how much you would like that to be the case.

Who? Don't just lead with this and back it up with nothing.
I am assuming Rueben is who you are referring to.

Exactly what it does. You don't know shite about the guy, you are just lashing out at whatever you can find to lash out at.

Well then, carry on with your tirade. If it makes you feel better.

It absolutely does. Continue telling strangers on the internet how to feel.

JonDavid,
Whatever the merits of Holmes are in traveling with HS kids to camps, he obviously lied about Davis. That hurt LSU in its efforts to fill it's slots with the best players available. In short, his dishonesty was calculated to hurt the LSU program. There's no getting around that, regardless of any other merits you may attribute to him.
I ,too, am a WHS alumnus and recall Gillyard,Prather, Ricky Simmons to LSU.

As a WHS alumni, I can say we were all excited about TD going to LSU. Despite its long-time-ago great football history, WHS has only had 2 knights go to LSU on a football scholarship. There will be numerous unhappy alumni because of this.
Who is the second? I remember James Gilyard because I played against him in high school. I was trying to remember the last Woodlawn kid to go LSU.

Gilliard, Trey Prather and Ricky Simmons are the three WHS palyers I can think of...
Roovelroe Swann (All Name Team with Barkevious M.) went to Huntington or Green Oaks, I think.
Only Toshiro and Holmes lied.

Decarlos Holmes is also the guys whose "imporper assistance" to students cost Bastrop the 05 state title. He got transfers to Bastrop after Katrina.
Then, as now, his judgment (if not integrity) seems a bit lacking.
