I have never had a good feeling with Ricks.

Let’s simmer down

We know our “insiders” are usually the last to know bad news but we need to look for collateral sources here.

What do the Fongs of the world say?

I wasn't trying to worry anyone. I'm sure it will be all rainbows and unicorns after his LSU visit this weekend

Kelly and Co. will have their chance to close on him. I have faith that the red carpet will be rolled out and LSU will make a great pitch. If the last visit wasn't us, I'd feel less confident but I feel like this last visit is huge in our favor.

I think a lot of people are underrating the last visit….


A player does not just do that by accident.

The last visit that a player takes is usually the key to where they will end up. LSU will be fine and I will post the visit pics and I am sure he will shoot his commitment video and we can move on

The fact that he acknowledged bama had a lot of ground to make up and we get the last visit to sell our academics and whatnot gives me hope

Plus, as I asked earlier, what do the neutral experts say like Fong and those guys with no affiliation to a school ? That’s where I’d pay attention

Before Florida and Alabama visits, it was all LSU. After Florida and Alabama visits, it’s between them two.

Sounds like he just really enjoyed those visits, which is expected.

He visits LSU next and he will enjoy that visit as well and things will settle back to pre-visit standings and he signs with LSU.

Tim watts is one of the best and he is spot on. When he puts his pick in for a bama guy it’s over. I think he is 50/50 right now. A good sign for us. If we didn’t have the last visit, I would say bama.

No mention of a pick by him. I think most of this chatter will die down after this weekend

Agreed. Watts even said that Bama and Florida had "made up ground." Gotta have someone ahead to make up ground on. Just my .02.

Oh we’re going to find out if he’s really “top priority” for LSU or not.

Let’s just wait and see if he makes his visit to LSU this weekend.

If he makes it in, we have as good a chance as anyone.
If he’s doesn’t make it in, I’d start worrying.

Patience. ;)
