Give me a fricking break, what a sad and pathetic way to try and belittle the #1 CB in the country and his dad who was a three-time pro bowler and played 11 years in the league.
And there it is. When you don't have an educated response, resort to the cursing at someone and stoop to the low character of the ones your defending. boom, I knew it.
p.s. What does #1 cb and three time pro bowler/how many years in the league have to do about dignity and character whis is what this post is about? I guess you uphold rae carruth and ray rice as people with dignity.

You want me to believe the poor little groupie and his daddy just decided at 11 pm the night before signing day he was going to a different school?
However, you don't want to believe, had lsu known this before, they would not have made the offer to Goodrich?
I think he visited Bama way before 11 p.m., had in home visits with both schools way before 11 p.m. but couldn't tell either school where he was leaning? However, two weeks before, he tells a recruiting service he had a pretty good idea what he was going to do but would announce on signing day.
My goodness, I know you don't like O, Neither do I. however, to go to these depths to justify this groupies actions and his total lack of respect to the coaching staff is absurd. It's really sad.
you also make a ton of assumptions here that you're using as evidence to denounce he and his family..yet you want to sit here and give me lectures about respecting others? You are insulting a teenage kid based on shite you've made up in your head....talk about character flaws

You said business reasons.
I'm failing to understand the business part.
Lsu puts more in the NFL than anyone, including Alabama.
Bc alamaba has won more games than LSU has last few years isn't business,, that's personal reasons.

It means that his dad knows how the recruiting process works, how coaching works, how development works, and what would be best for his son in terms of making it to and succeeding in the NFL. But sure, that has a lot to do with two random NFL players who are violent pieces of shite. Excellent false equivalence.

So you can't conduct business with integrity or dignity? I didn't realize those 2 things were mutually exclusive.

Why are you so focused on the actions of one single recruit? PS2 wasn't the first guy to do something like this and he won't be the last.
Why was Orgeron, the ace recruiter, so ill-prepared for this possibility? I don't care if they'd been recruiting him since pre-school, he's not a lock until he signs.
If you have another top player that's ready to sign, you sign him and best case scenario is that you get two great players instead of one.

You're blaming the teenage kid vs. a guy making millions
his dad wasn't involved? the parent has no responsibility to teach the kid what is the right thing to do?
Look, I get you guys don't like O, I don't like him either. However, I'm not going to take the side of wrong to justify my dislike. The kid and his family was wrong, plain and simple.
If you look at the ones that do this, and it's not just bama. Janzen Jackson, Tony Brown, Mae teuma, the Samoa kid that punched through a window at lsu then got kicked off, Kenny bell, etc. They usually don't pan out and there is a reason why. In this example I give kids doing for lsu and against.

You’re being disingenuous if you don’t think there would be a meltdown in this scenario
We accept Goodrich’s commitment
Surtain goes elsewhere because of it (or any unknown reason)
Recruiting board and TD blow up
Binder jokes

the top CB wasn't bolting if goodrich came here, get fricking real dude. The school he signed with took in 3 other CBs

And if Surtain would have signed with LSU this thread wouldn’t exist. That’s the thin line here. At the end of the day he and his family have to live with how they conducted themselves with the coaches. None of us directly knows how this went down and I won’t rag on the kid for a decision that he viewed as in his best interests.
Posted on 2/8/18 at 10:37 am to BilJ
Ok bil, don’t be such a dick, that was a hypothetical
So say Surtain goes to bama (after being considered an LSU lean for 2 years) because of a ‘business decision’ AFTER Goodrich commits.... you don’t think people here would flip the frick out? Come on man
** I edited my hypothetical for you

LSU has like 55 players in the league right now and Alabama has like 50. That could probably swing either way from time to time a good bit.

Well so what? What does fan reaction have to do with anything. In your scenario we're still in a better position than we're in today.
After everyone calmed down, cooler heads would realize that if PS2 really wanted to be here, he'd come regardless of if Goodrich signed or not. He's not some marginal player that would have his playing time cut into.

you're trying to tie together two events that have no relation. The board would have freaked out about surtain regardless, but landing goodrich would have at least eased the pain and depth chart concerns.

According to TD, a whole lot
How can you ask that question with a straight face, given where we are right now?
Also - if you don’t think this place would be livid after the perceived notion that they took Goodrich OVER Surtain, you’re being disingenuous

What are the assumptions? I think it's documented that when he called, lsu got on the phone with Goodrich. It's documented he called at 11 pm, it's documented he told the recruiting service he had a good idea what he was going to do. It's documented he was leaning to lsu for two years. It's documented Jarvis landry called him a groupie.
I'm belittling him now? That's laughable. So this poor little groupie and his family can do anything they want, say anything they wantand there is no responsibility for their actions or what they say? They belittled themselves and subjected themselves to the question of dignity and character.
Not me making an observation after the fact.

Im not trying to tie anything together..
I was just using a hypothetical to show that no matter what, there would be outrage directed towards O and the staff
