Per Elijah Thomas Twitter his dad really enjoyed the weekend. Took a picture on the sideline for the game with CJJ. He have a pic with a LSU #15 football jersey on so I think we in real good shape. I hope we can get a commit before he go on to many more OV especially Illinois since they seem to be the big threat right now. 


His whole fam seemed to love the visit. Getting mama on board with us could swing things in a big way.

They probably didn't select Ben because he would've prevented the tank. He's too damn good to tank.


We need to get a closer look at his eye brows.

His dad threw a slang out there about "y'all recruits need to get on board". He was real excited about the way CJJ showed them a first class visit. I think we will get a surprise top recruit off a OV. The atmosphere of football game day is crazy. I wish we could have got blakeny in before he went to Louisville maybe he would have enjoyed it enough to commit to us.

COME ON MALIK NEWMAN!!! He visited last year and loved it, but the interest seemed to die after that. He and Elijah always tweeting back and forth, so there's a bond there. That would be incredible if we could somehow pull that off.

I just seen on TQ IG page he took a pic of his all black air max and Elijah Thomas replied "LOL Yeeeah Bo". Then TQ replied back you already know Bo go head and commit. So this can be warming up for us cause of the bind there with the players. I was hoping to see him at the mall yesterday for the meet the players but I didn't see him but I know he had a long ride back to Dallas.

If only Blakeney would've held off just a little while longer, he too could have been saved. Damn.

But yeah, shite's looking good for Elijah. He was already tight with Mick and Grey and he knew Elbert, but it looks like he really got to know the other players and the program in general a lot better.

Today is the first day of in-homes. Hopefully CJJ will be in Dallas soon to press Elijah more. And ya boy has also heard the dudes over at 247 will be doing more bball coverage. So that's some good shite for us.

When it comes to LSU basketball. Ben Love is as good as it will get. It's that simple.

Especially if I know who is taking over the basketball for 247. LOL

247 does great work for football but it'll never come close to the Love Machine on hoops. I have almost added Scout to my subscriptions just cause him.

Ben Love is a beast, but Scouts layout just sucks dick and there's no way I'm paying just for basketball info.

Did he visit any of his finalists (Davis)? Have not kept up with him as much as the other targets.
