It was understandable because he was a highly rated Louisiana recruit who chose to sign with LSU's most hated rival. No one has a crystal ball to say exactly how a HS prospect will perform in college. Recruiting comes down to projecting how well a coach thinks a HS player will perform, and the projections for Sopsher were high.


Even for those who had reservations about the way he was trending late, it was a big loss in terms of optics at the time. However, O did a lot better head to head in the two classes that followed so it ended up not being a big deal.

The melt over him was unreal..

That’s not the way I remember it. At least half the board was saying that some small HS lineman dominated him in a game, and that Sopsher had no heart. A lot of posters did not want Sopsher…and they were right.

Seriously who the phuck cares about any of this stuff anymore?

We are headed towards something that doesn't resemble anything close to conventional college football recruiting.

Any person that follows recruiting can see this coming a mile away. None of this is a surprise.
Yep. Crazy part is that even before he committed to Saban, some on here were talking about him being overrated. Talking about him not being as dominant as you would expect from someone of his caliber.

Was he one of those Amite High kids?
We lost a couple of big targets from there. The coach doesn’t like LSU or something.

This board used to be obsessed with this guy. Recruiting is a funny thing.




O offered his brother a scholarship
Just think how bad that would've been.
