It has nothing to do with hate. They see an opportunity to win championships and get drafted high. When's the last time LSU had a LB taken in the first round? Bama seems to have one every year.

If he flips, does he give the car back?
Why would he? What would Bama say if this is true? "Hey, this kid won't give back the car we bought for him to come here"
I remember on the Pony Express 30 for 30 when A&M gave Eric Dickerson a gold Trans-Am

I have said as much before. Anyone who thinks Bama is on the up and up is a fool.

That's true, but there is more to it than that. We know this thanks to social media. These kids don't just "make a business decision" and move on in most cases. They mock and degrade LSU, LSU fans, and in some cases even the state of Louisiana.

They don't hate LSU. It's more a testament to how good saban is imo.
I think we have a shot of flipping Allen but it'll be a real uphill battle. Hopefully one of the lupoi rumors turns out to be true and he leaves bama.

quickly edited to Bama but is this a telling sign?

I think it's okay to try and flip Allen but LSU makes mistake after mistake about not recruiting other players. In this case it was Jones. We should dictate the recruiting of players not the other way around, Other schools offer multiple players for the same position and don't worry if a kid gets upset we should do the same. This is what breeds competition. We need to develop this mentality, we will lose some and gain some. But ultimately we have control.

I'm going to go ahead and ask you to not ask that anymore he has stated multiple time that he would rather sit on the bench then come to LSU. He is Tiger Bait, next man up.

I think this is what you meant to say.

What is the source
Saban has spent millions of dollars investing in all kind of things that influence the minds of these young men. By all kinds of things I mean media relations (all kinds), psychologists, researchers, private investigators, spiritual consultants, just to name a few. If you really want to hunt down the rabbit you're going to have to look in all the holes and burrows. In short (no pun intended), It's literally a high school kid whose trying to plan his future against Saban and his genies in a bottle. The plan Saban puts together is a tall order for a young man to look past. Most recruits have very impressionable minds and he knows exactly what to say and do to push their buttons.

We have almost a ZERO chance at flipping Allen. I say almost, only because our chances of flipping Allen are only slightly higher than flipping moses, which we have absolutely ZERO chance of flipping.
I've been saying for over a year now that Moses wasn't coming to LSU (even when he was committed) and that he would end up at Bama. I am close friends with the father of one of the Catholic BR running backs (next in line behind CEH) and he has always said that Moses' father had his eyes set on the NFL and Saban/Bama was the best coach/team in his and Dylan's mind to prepare Dylan for the league.
Allen's dream school is Bama, it is what it is. Until LSU starts producing against Bama on the field and winning SEC/National Championships, recruits will continue to see it this way.

Exception from the norm, and I doubt Bama is hurting from missing out on him.

Chris is staying home.
Hopefully.

Levi Jones will play OLB in college where we have plenty of depth. Allen will play ILB where we don't have depth.

LSU NFL players >>>>>> bama NFL players

Yes they will be talking about Saban in 50 years but not most of his players. If you come to LSU right now and are part of the team that beats Bama and Saban and wins the NC you will go down as a LA legend for the rest of your life.

Just out of curiosity...do you think LSU only has offers out to 2 linebackers? Serious question.

Easy on the Monroe area gump lovers. I consider myself one of the biggest gump hatin sumbeaches out there. But to verify your point they are rather Sabanic around here. Can't even get our beloved Tigers on a local radio station. Also they run ads on radio promoting the dark side. Just waiting on my son to graduate so I can move away from these a-holes.
