I'm listening to Marcus Randall right now on 104.5 and he is talking about Chris Allen and how he's not an early enrollee; therefore, there is still time. He also said "it would be nice to keep him home". Hopefully those that were trashing Randall two weeks ago can let it go. He loves LSU and is not steering Allen to bama.

"Given I am an LSU Tiger, I want us to have all the best players" - M. Randall

He also said that Allen loves Coach O and spoke highly of O even before he got the head coaching job.

ETA: Here is the audio clip of the interview. Marcus Randall 12min audio clip

Yeah I don't know where Allen will end up but I for sure believe Marcus would rather him be at LSU

Chris, look at the depth charts and holler at me. It's cool to want to go to the front running program but Arden Key is about to make more money than any OLB on Bamas roster. FACT

COME HOME CHRIS

Randall also just said that Chris Allen loved what he saw during the bowl game.

I don't want to be negative....but to me all Randall was doing was saying what he knows everyone in Louisiana wants to hear. I didn't expect him to come out and say he pushes players to Bama. I want LSU to get all of the good players sounds much better from a guy that lives in Louisiana.

Having said that I do actually hope LSU gets all of the good players. So come on down Allen.

Need to send former So. Lab alum Marcus Spears to talk to the young man…

He's more pro-LSU than pro-Saban.

Thanks for reporting on this.

Every once an a while people that have an influence on the LSU program whether large or small should be heard. I'm glad Marcus publicly spoke up and set the record straight about a major recruit in a position of need in our back yard that played for him.

After hearing this I trust that Marcus has done all that he could possibly do to properly influence Chris to come to LSU and Tiger fandom should appreciate that.

Do any of you that have been ragging on Marcus, actually know the guy personally or do you all just have sour grapes over Allen choosing the gumps?

The whole Randall "pushing kids to Saban" was stupid to begin with. One kid from SU Lab commits to Bama and its panic time. Two Five star recruits from University High go to Bama and no conspiracies or trashing coaches.

thank you for posting this, especially the part about what MR said.

It doesn't seem popular based on a previous post, but if I were CEO/Craig and I had a priority based list on where to spend time and resources on flips, Allen would be at the top of mine.

And with the Rice decommit and that bowl game, now. I'm using Aranda, GA's, texts, skype, direct mails, whatsapp, having Beckwith and Debo call him, and any other thing I can think of. This week. Right now is the time to strike.

You're a perfect example of a fan not knowing how recruiting works from the perspective of the recruit!
