I trust O and Faulk on this one. They see something in Kiner they like and if they feel Hargrove deserves an offer, he’ll get one. Leveon Moss is coming next class and will be a day 1 contributor.

Do you think we are even pushing for him?

He picked up another offer adding Penn State to the list. I’m telling you, the kid is special. Not that anyone is in disbelief, but he is fun to watch and will continue to pick up more and more offers.

I am a believer now, after watching HUDL , damn that kid looks smooth, tough, FAST. If he has an even better year, NO way we don’t offer. Is the kid pro LSU ? Do you think offer = commit ?

247: A Louisiana Tech 4-Star?


As I said, not worried about losing him to Florida State or Penn State. Louisiana Tech’s coaching staff does an absolutely phenomenal job building relationships and the relationship with Hargrove is strong.

His quote makes it sound like there are only a handful of schools he’ll decommit from Tech for (LSU and Clemson were named but I’m guess schools like Auburn and A&M would also fit).

There are schools of interest that could swing Bull's decision another route. I am the one who originally brought Bull to everyone's attention. The kid is humble and works hard. Just to think he almost quit football two years ago. He was told to be patient and when his turn came, make the most of the opportunity.

He is firmly committed to La Tech, but there are schools that could sway his decision. LSU may not be one of those schools. LSU is talking to him, but they are not truly showing the right kind of interest. Two months ago an offer from LSU would have meant the world to him, but today, maybe not as much. Florida St and Penn St are not really recruiting him, they only offered him and that goes for Baylor, OSU and most of the other P5 schools.

He is a game breaker and has been since junior high school. He doesn't look that fast, but he has a 10 speed transmission. Keep in mind, he shared time with Tre' all of last year and put up spectacular numbers.

He just needed an opportunity! He was a hard hitting safety that didn't like playing safety (LOL). He has risen to the #10 ranked RB in the country.

He doesn't talk to strangers, barely talks to anyone. If you don't think he is the best RB in the state, I would like for everyone to look at who he played this past year. Ruston had undoubtedly the strongest schedule in the state.

I didn't say he was sticking with Tech, but as of today, he is a firm La Tech commit and there isn't anyone that can tell me different. And if he does sway his decision, it won't be anytime soon and that 'bro' is a fact.

To be honest, he may decide to reach out to other top prospects to join him at La Tech. Wouldn't it be crazy to see 5 or 6 other 3* and 4* recruits join him at La Tech! He controls his destiny and there are only 2 schools that can truly alter his path.

There’s probably less than a 10% chance he sticks to his commitment, there is literally no chance that he brings other 4* recruits with him to Tech if he does happen to stick

I’m certainly not suggesting he will stay committed to LaTech, but I’m certain people said the same thing about Amik Robertson a few years back. He turned out to be a 4th round draft pick and did okay at Tech. Again, I agree LSU and Tech are on two different planets but let’s not suggest it’s impossible for a 4-star to go to Tech and still have success.

Robertson actually recommitted from tech. He gained a lot of traction late. Hargrove is getting it before his SR year. He has more time to be courted. He isn’t going to la tech

Im curious what leads you to believe that? Is it because you don't think Louisiana Tech can pull kids with power five offers? There is plenty of evidence in recent years to prove that is not the case. Amik Robertson being a great example, but even in this class Kenneth Bannister is loaded with Power Five offers:
Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, Kentucky, Louisville, Mississippi State, Wake Forest, Texas Tech, Washington State and West Virginia.

You are right, Hargrove may not stick, but Tech is much more competitive in recruiting battles with middle and lower tier P5 programs than your casual fan would assume. Skip Holtz and Joe Sloan are doing a great job of building relationship and high school coaches and players are noticing how many players Louisiana Tech is sending to the NFL.

Let me reply to this comment first. Been on the site for 8 years and yes, I know when someone is replying and not replying to me....I still can reply to what someone says to someone else. True or False? This is an open forum correct?

As far as Bull goes, you are getting the opportunity to see his highlight film because I understand his situation better than almost anyone on this thread. I mentioned his name months ago before he even had any star behind his name. Dandy Don didn't even have him listed in his top 50 players from Louisiana. After posting his highlight film, he jumped to 10. To be honest he should be the top RB in the state and his resume proves he has played against top tier defenses and that was his first full year as RB. He has always been a two way player based on need.

These schools have offered him, but they are not recruiting him. I am not just talking. Tech is actively recruiting him on a daily basis. And to think Tech cannot land him, you are wrong. Tech has a better than 10% chance of keeping his commitment. As of now, he is firmly committed to Louisiana Tech and LSU has a less than 10% chance of landing him and Florida St isn't even the running as of yesterday.

All Tech has to do is keep doing what they are doing.

Amik gained traction late, was kind of a back burner recruit for bigger schools.

Hargove is a long way from signing day, hasn't played a Sr season yet, and is already gaining major traction with P5 schools.

Tech was on him early and i think he felt the love. Covid kept him off the radar but when he popped, he popped. I respect Tech immensely but this just isnt going to stick.



This is a quote from him the other day. It reads that Tech is a consolation prize.

quote:

“I’m looking for (a few) SEC offers,” Hargrove said. “But if that doesn’t work out, I’d be (happy) staying with Louisiana Tech. … Really, my eyes are just open right now.”
