Well I was responding to your hypothetical scenario. He’s an idiot if he de-committed just to think about it. You can do that without losing a spot if LSU was still a real player in his recruitment

Definitely processed. Was a questionable take. 6’1” player doesn’t fit in the 3-4 front.

Knew the processing was coming but didn’t think it would be Jenkins.

Me either, did not see this coming. I man, he looked so good to the staff and he worked so hard to improve and even got bumped up by 247. Man, this really sucks. Maybe he was lacking something that didn't develop like the coaches had hoped, IDK. Good luck to him, I think he will be a damn good one.

IDK. Either processed or he just got scared of the numbers LSU is bringing in. With Guillory (who most think will be a Tiger, LSU that is), Lee, Roy, Berry and Taylor, that's a lot of competition. If the kid is scared of competition, he best off going somewhere else.

Gotcha. Well I hope this diamond in the rough with all these secret options that nobody else seems to know about ends up where he wants to be.

I read on this board that he’s got the best hands of any of our DL commits so that’s gotta be accurate even though college coaches seem to think otherwise based on who’s been offered by whom.

The whole thing makes perfect sense when you think about it. Recruits that come out with announcements to create some attention typically like to keep high profile offers under wraps so it makes sense that nobody can say who else is after him that would be a threat to LSU.

The fact that LSU will be landing another more highly rated player at his position soon and already has 2 others committed, both of whom are also more highly rated is inconsequential I’m sure. As is the fact that space is getting tight with some other elite guys wanting in the class.

Yep. The thought that maybe, just maybe this was a mutual decision is preposterous.

Those of us suggesting such obviously have no logical basis to form that conclusion.

Jenkins was not processed. but he's playing a dangerous game, there's too many top rated recruits trying to get in an almost full class. If he wants to be at LSU he better jump back on board quick or the train will leave the station. I don't have any direct source but my guess is after he's gotten some national accolades and attention someone close to him gave him bad advice and told him to "open it up".

Perhaps you're right, but we're at 22 verbals w/o Jenkins right now. All the recruiting activity I'm seeing involves Guillory, (1) RB (Evans/Clayton/?), (1) OT (Arkansas commit ?) and (1) DE (Harris), which puts us at 26 with only 3 spots available as of now. His decommitment tweet is really strange (very short almost like he's pissed). Perhaps our staff hasn't been calling him enough (or at all).

They need pass rushers, He was processed, don’t need him if Guillory commits
