hardemann, tbrown, hootie, and maybe adoree
just to name a few. i think the coaches really like him. (although not that apparent from how long he has waited for an offer) so giving him an official visit is a good thing for him. Not too many kids would still be waiting on an offer

What leads you to think this? Not being argumentative, Im honestly curious. I appreciate the dude still being around if he really wants to play for LSU. It just seems odd at this point that we haven't offered someone the "coaches really like."

He hasnt been hanging around just for the hell of it. Coaches have been "flirting" with him for a while.
i happen to agree with some insiders that he's been asked to be patient.

Did same thing with Duke Riley last year. Dragged him out until the end and full offer when others didn't come that were higher on the list.

I hope he has a fall back then if we land the targets we really like.

The only thing I don't like about offering gage is we adamantly told jamal that he was the last safety and we passed on Hootie because of that, and now LSU's gonna offer a lower level safety just to fill a spot.

Gage will be a better college FOOTBALL player than Hootie.

Good for Gage. It seems he has always had the want to be a Tiger.
