deal is he is a prima dona and wants all the attention. Usually doesn't bid well for the team as a whole

How’d that work out for the other Ricks so far….?

What does that have to do with it? Perhaps Bama has signed other guys with the first name Desmond. Should we look to them for indicators on how Desmond Ricks will do?

Jamal was the 5th. Hootie tried to play the game on us and Les didn't play. Would've cost us Jamal

This doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. Did bama just now offer? It’s only been the last couple of days that he’s even really considered bama. Sounds way more like they threw some offer on the table that he has to consider.


He started “considering” them when they finally matched our offer

One player out of high school can not make or break a team.

The only exception to this might be at the QB position but there is literally no way to tell if a high school QB will or will not be that dynamic of a college QB.

He can go pro or be a flop not worth melting over….who knows



yes but, these elite players that include LSU in their final 3 don't come around too often. Other really good players do, but not Elite players. So we have to at least put up the money on a few of these guys and not just rollover and let Saban continue to win. Until that happens this will continue to happen every fukin year.

Has he signed with the gumps? If so, it is not reflected in the tracker.

Remember how good Stingley was coming in? Better than Ricks I think. Did he really make that big of an impact on our 2019 team? Was toasted in the Bama game twice for TDS. He didn’t play much after his freshman year, and he became a distraction. If Ricks wants Bama, have at it! If he loves LSU, welcome to Tigerland. Prima Donnas scare me.

As I remembered it, it was an LSU/Bama battle for Hootie. Hootie then committed to Bama. LSU then went after Jamal. Hootie then tried to get back in the good graces of LSU but Les didn't fall for the trick.

That's how I remembered the saga. I think Jamal was leaning towards Ole Miss at the time. And Les swooped in and took him away.

Well considering he was a 1st Team All American, I think he made an immediate impact. I mean he only was named an All American by USA Today, AP, Sporting News, Sports Illustrated, ESPN and finally The American Football Coaches Association.

I hope Cormani McClain signs with Bama now. Isn't he signing tomorrow? I would like to see Rick's face if that happened.

Jamal wasn't part of the original 5. It was Hootie Jones that was replaced by Jamal. Hootie tried to get back in but was told to take a hike and LSU signed Jamal instead.
5 for 5 was she 5 signees at the under armour all American game

This is DBU with or without.

Our DBs haven't exactly been great since 2019, and we were thin at that position this year and will be next year as well as of now. Our reputation moniker doesn't mean anything for 2023 and beyond. To maintain that reputation, we have to keep signing and developing elite DBs

If he wants to be at Alabama, then let him go to Alabama. I'd rather him go ahead and go now than deal with him threatening to enter the portal later on
