Wouldn't surprise me at all TBH..I know it may seem like he isn't coming here but he really does like LSU(His parents do too) and what we have to offer.

Adoree parents called Lsu to make sure they understood what the official visit was for

It was an unofficial which is why he took two visits this past weekend (UCLA/USC)

From a direct source


After the under armour game, there is no such thing . If our own coaching staff was taken by surprise , what does a "direct source" know?

After that I'd put Dupre third and everyone else a 50/50 after that. Sione Tuehema would probably be my next guy.



I think these two are backwards. And I really have no confidence in Dupre.

not crazy and if jimmy's bit about the parents calling the staff is true

the fuse may be lit on this Boom!


You mean AJs parents calling LSU to let us know they are going to USC? The family is on our side. Problem is they arent the ones who are the 5 star athletes.

Call me crazy but I think Adoree committed to LSU during our latest in home visit. Just a feeling I have, nothing concrete at all.


I agree because why would the parents call the coaches and explain to them why adoree was visiting ucla and USC this weekend

The reason I'm confident in dupre was becoming he was literally recruiting for us during the spring game and other events.

After taking an unofficial visit to UCLA and USC over the weekend, Jackson's family called LSU to share the news of their travel to the local programs to help eliminate any extra bit of doubt in the Tigers' minds of what the trip could mean. That is evidence of a level of respect needed to win a family over and it shows the Tigers that they are still very much in the race.

I'm more worried about the last month of his recruiting. He's gotten to take his officials and they have really given him something to think about. Has he been doing any recruiting lately? I haven't heard much lately about him talking up LSU like he was previously.

Yeah okay. Alabama fans kill each other, tea bag other fans, kill oak trees, wanted to kill their kicker and it is a proven fact they have the most ridiculous rabid fan base out there and they will have the #1 recruiting class for the 4th year straight. Before you say yeah they have the best coach in college football and they do. He is a fricking tool.


Well you're comparing LSU to the most entitled fanbase in the world. Yeah LSU is not as bad as Bama fans, but a huge portion of our fanbase is entitled and spoiled. There's plenty of things I love about our fanbase but that's not one of them. The Miles/staff bashing does nothing but hurt the LSU culture. I've been in a lot of college towns and I haven't seen anything quite like it. The vast majority of programs would love to have Miles' results but a sizable segment of our fanbase believes he's nothing but an albatross to the program.

Yes I know all of that. Like I said, the family is on our side. Just like they were when UT was in the picture. But we are recruiting Adoree.

I thought I read here that a couple of weeks ago he stopped by lsu while they were hosting a bunch of recruits to help recruit.....

then he left to go to bama on a visit....
