LSU: “Coach (Corey) Raymond is good guy, and the environment of the school I like,” Pickett said. “I really like Baton Rouge and what they can do for me on an off the field. Their fans care about their players, and it’s somewhere you can build you brand. A lot of people care for LSU, and it’s DBU, too.”

Miami: “Miami is the home team right now,” he said. “Miami is Miami. My cousin is there, I have family ties there. It’s another place where I can build my brand and do what I want to do on and off the field. It’s also somewhere I can play early. Coach Cristobal, he played there and he’s from Miami so he actually takes pride in what he has going on there. And he’s trying to bring “The U” back. The players already on the team, I see how they practice and they believe in what he has going in.”

Oregon: “Oregon has a lot of resources, and it’s somewhere I feel like I can be successful at. That’s a long ways from home, but I’d have less distractions. And it’s an opportunity to get to play early, and everybody in the building, they’re just really cool people. They’ve got the connection with Nike, and after school is over I could get more into the Nike business. They have all the resources, in my opinion. They’re about their business, and they take the defensive side serious. They’re prepared, and they do everything well.”

He’s not going to like Oregon in November/ December… Nike money won’t compensate for that. If he goes out of state, he’d be crazy to pick them over us.

The timing of this all, certainly looks like it’s doing us no favors with Fong’s article today.

We really need to land all 3 DL over the next 2 days, and we are going to need to get Antoine back on board. 1 of Moore or Pickett seems unlikely right now, but we need to keep a full court press.

I’m hoping a couple of guys not on our radar right now start to pop up over the next couple of months with interest in LSU.

As a few of these will be, his will be a fall recruitment. Whether we get his commitment, Oregon or Miami do, it'll still be interesting in November/December. I say put the early period into effect. Let kids put their money where their mouth is. Lot of commitments to lots of teams the next few days. I'll be interested how many stick.

Didn’t he previously say he wanted to watch their seasons play out first?

And is this coming off a recent Oregon trip?

Feel like everybody has been caught up in this kid backing Corey that we’ve forgot if Corey doesn’t land him, he’s really brought in nobody so far.

At the moment he’s having trouble keeping the only elite one in the state.

lol recruit these guys hard for a year and then some school who can’t win games offers a blank check and takes them after recruiting them for a second.

Really beginning to believe LSU just doesn’t have the money to keep up. Thats why we are going to be left standing at the alter quite a bit going forward with elite recruits.

How soon was this? I mean it doesn't surprise me. I think we are starting to feel we are hoodwinked with CR....

Agree. I think in one year we will have a new db coach.
Almost every other sec fan base say CR is overrated.

Some might have been, but anybody who has actually paid attention to his recruiting and coaching the last 4 years haven’t.

I mean I try to give the benefit of the doubt..I understand he didn't do anything at Florida and now we welcomed him back when our secondary was absolute shite.. Legacy only goes so far

Yeah this is highly disappointing overall. Can’t wait to see what transfers we take from nicholls or selu or mcneese in the secondary again

I'm fine with it and can't be mad since I haven't added one dollar to NIL.

Sure looks like big bags were dropped. LSU couldn’t match up.

Fong said that in his article discussing Pickett moving up his timeline, so less than an hour ago
