re: Moses to IMG

I'm not getting worked up over ANY single recruit anymore. That ended with "5 for 5."
That didn't work out too badly for us. If He ends up here, I'll be ecstatic and if He doesn't, best of luck to the kid.

It's the recruiting class as a whole that you have to concern yourself with and We have arguably the best collective recruiting staff in the nation. We'll be fine.

I think he is going because he can. He also gets to get out of Louisiana and away from home for awhile and enjoy his senior year. This is good for LSU because he gets a chance to go play in a different state and he will have the opportunity to watch as LSU's Offense, Defense, and Special Teams have a great year, including an SEC Championship and a National Championship. I truly believe that we get over the Alabama hump this year. I think LSU will beat bama in Death Valley by at least 14 points. But, the main thing is, LSU coaching staff, players, and fans will shake off the "Lets JUST beat Alabama" mentality and I think this year will be the "Alabama is JUST another obstacle" mentality, Tough like all other SEC opponents. All LSU Fans, Players, and Coaches need to drop the hatred, because hate blinds you, but we do need to stay Angry and Fearful, because Fear makes you play smart and Anger fuels the tank so that you play with confidence and heart to overcome the Fear.

I think Les is always too focused on certain teams that he feels LSU must beat thereby causing issues during the season leading up to big games like Alabama. Les puts too much emphasis on the Alabama game year round as if it's our Superbowl. We focus on Alabama when it's their time to go down.

So Moses, after watching LSU dominate College Football and going undefeated in the 2016-2017 Regular season, SEC game, Round 1 of the playoffs, and winning the National Championship game, and being away from home, will come home and play for LSU. Of course, he will want his 15 minutes of fame by announcing his commitment on Live TV during the UA game or something like that.

We will have him home in a LSU uniform...

I hate IMG Academy like I hate select/travel baseball (which my son plays). Takes all the pride out of kicking the shite out of a team from a rival town.

I hear what you're saying but I don't begrudge any kid going to IMG. That place is amazing. It's more like a college than a high school and in fact it's probably better than most universities. I hate to say it but it's probably the wave of the future.

Good. Will be less of a "defeat" perception wise when he goes to Alabama

What's the value of IMG to a kid who was already at a very good school and had all the exposure he could ever want?

I've moved on. Moses may be a guy who has peaked , who knows... Doubt he's coming to LSU

Saw a kid from GA that just signed back with GA after going IMG. He said the year there made him realize how important home was and he missed it. Hope happens here too.

IMG has a lot more exposure that UHIGH. Take a look at the schedule for this past year, it was insane. They played all over the nation against national powerhouse programs. Unfortunately, UHIGH doesn't have that opportunity. I find it interesting that UHIGH played IMG this well.

Haha I'm not saying he should go. Your right everyone already knows who he is. Something happened there, I'm not sure what though. He may just be fustrating with coaching or thinks he can improve more....or maybe they gave him a $50,000 - $70,000 scolly. I'm just guessing though.
