We know Sopsher is out...hopefully they aren’t wasting anymore time on him. Who are we actively recruiting that has yet to commit and who are we trying to flip? Surely, we are working to land at least 3-4 DL in this class. Thanks.

Just like how we knew Surtain was in this time last year right?

The kid doesn’t even know where he’s going yet. Let’s see what happens when it’s nutcutting time and his decision is Bama or LSU with his brother.

Sopsher is not worth two scholarships (him and his brother). Move on and recruit two 4*s that want be here and will contribute.

Great idea. There's only one problem here...

That’s all fine and dandy to say “Oh let’s just go snag 2 - 4*’s”

Big athletic kids don’t grow on trees. It’s not easy to do that.

They’re pursueing the Stripling kid in Texas and Ika in Utah right now but Sospher is still the #1 target.

Unless your on the staff or your related to the kid, you have no idea what’s going on in his recruitment right now.

I love everyone’s conspiracy theories.

You know A&M has a theory that we have a Cajun mafia that won’t let kids go out of state? They thought that we landed Marshall last year because we threatened his parents employment.

Alabama has landed 1 kid from Amite.


One.


Lee is an LSU lean and no one truly knows what’s going on with Sospher.

Sopsher is 100% gone. Finished. Finito. He has shown no actions whatsoever that he wants to be at LSU. Bama on the other hand...

Sopsher will be on the field immediately if he comes to LSU. If that ain't enough to get him I'll be fully convinced the kid recieved money.

Oh because he visited Bama twice and tweeted roll tide one time? He’s been on LSU’s campus more than any other campus and it’s not close You have no idea what’s going to happen. This happens every year in recruiting but you do overreact quite often.

A couple of months ago- Emery’s done he’s 100% to Georgia

Last year Surtain was a done deal to us.

Year before Marvin Wilson was LSU bound as soon as O got the job and K’Lavon was going to Texas.

Year before when Devin White said Ole Miss led the narrative was- “Stop wasting time on him, if he doesn’t want to be a tiger find someone who does”

Year before Donte Jackson was going rob georgia and Arden Key to South Carolina


Point is- You, I and everyone else on this board (outside of vol) truly have no idea what the frick is going to happen. Especially months before he signs.

Not a Bama fan in the least bit, but I will take that bet. What do you want to put on it?

I think LSU will flip someone or get that 4 star before all is said and done. I know Meatball visited like ten defensive linemen last week. Bama has so many D-linemen committed I expect someone to bolt or be processed... I know we are high on Byron Young out of Ms. who is committed to Bama but will be visiting us. ... Something good will happen to add that second DL and next year we really load up on very quality DL...

NCAA basketball probe

I'm a little curious why football bagmen haven't been investigated. In basketball, the feds are on these guys for fraud, corruption, and bribery.

You have a link? And no. If the staff is still recruiting the kid then they believe it’s not done.
