I think he's done a great job of making sure no one can tell where he's leaning. I wouldn't be surprised either way.

I would say his actions are pretty neutral if anything. The one telling to me is he will visit LSU for the TAMU game AFTER his announcement. If you want to look at all the little details about him leaning to BAMA how could you ignore that for LSU? Why would he visit LSU after his announcement if he's going to BAMA? He already knows everything there is to know about LSU because he has been here multiple times.

Where did he say he was coming for A&M?

Red said above it's possible he could. I'd say that's very favorable for LSU if indeed he does come. He has absolutely no reason to come to LSU vs. TAMU if he commits to Bama. Nothing is going to change his mind at that point because he has been to LSU on so many occasions as it is.

LSU staff knows more than us. If LSU was nervous about Hootie they would be handing more offers out.

Well if he is coming here then we shouldn't worry about this thread dying.

We didn't start handing out more OL offers until Cam screwed us over

"it's very possible he could come" for the TAMU game. Is that from his own mouth or from Red/someone else?

Big difference.

If he does say he's coming, then

If his last 2 visits are to Bama, then

we actually offered cj hampton (ole miss commit) a scholly about a month ago.


It's tough to tell, many things could be spun either way. Hopefully we get him back on campus again before his decision.

Ok so it's all speculation.. If he doesn't set up any more visits to LSU then I'll say he's heading to bama. If he does, then these two visits to bama are to be respectful to a great program and to his buddies but to say thanks but no thanks.

Which brings us pretty much to what the experts are saying which is to watch his actions the next few weeks. Bottom line

This is basically what i was saying and got chewed out for stating my opinion. Anyone who thinks hootie going to bama for his last 2 visits and not making back to baton rouge because he has been here many times before is kidding themsevles. I think his actions down the stretch will tell the story. and as of now it's leaning bama's way.. Bama will probably get hootie and Hampton. and will get gage and ramirez.

The kid has done nothing but visit LSU all season long, and now he sets a date to commit without actually going to Bama this season and everyone is positive he's committing to Bama? Do y'all see how ridiculous that sounds?

really is amzaing how many people comment on recruiting when it's obvious they dont know a damn thing about what's being reported and said in interviews by the recruits.

Hell, some of them don't even bother reading the very threads they post in.

I can't tell whether this is a smart arse post about my post or if you're being genuine.

If it's about me, I've read as much about Hootie as everyone, including this thread.

could be furman or it could be during a bye week.

Wouldn't suprise me if our staff pushed for a visit during the bye week so they could really focus on him. Our staff likes bringing guys in after the season is over for that reason. Also, I doubt he has any questions as to what a Sat night in TS is like. He's been there and done that many times I'm sure.

Why is he visiting Bama twice? Just curios, no need for e-violence
