Miami guys from Rivals are saying he is visiting Miami now and not LSU per Miami players who know Howard.. They seem pretty confident about it..

I think LSU just gave up on Howard.

They probably suspect what some of us already do...he has never really been all that interested despite what he says.

Yeah, when Gonzales left, we basically stopped recruiting him. Stupid move IMO, but oh we'll.

I guess Gonzalez was a bigger loss than I previously thought.

We've got plenty of really good DB's - don't need him!

We definitely have more pressing needs than CB, but if his interest was legit, he's worth going after. Staff must have felt we didn't have a chance.

He's really talented though.

That's an unacceptable move by the coaching staff. How can another coach not take up the slack and at least call the kid or send an e-mail or something. shite, they could tell somebody on here to start talking to the kid so at least he hears from us. Rediculous!!!

It hasn't been confirmed by either Mike from Rivals or Shea from TOS but the Miami fans are arguing with Gator fans thinking his OV to Miami gives them a chance now.. They got some info LSU recruiting sites haven't got yet.. So I may be completely wrong here.. I have been on both sites for 10years and where there is smoke there is useally fire.. So take it for what its worth guys..

Because they realized he was just feigning interest in LSU. He would have still likely removed LSU even if Gonzales was here.

He said Gonzales was recruiting but never said the last he contacted him while he was part of the LSU staff.

They caught on to Howard trying to garner attention to his recruitment and moved on

I hate this talk. Are you gonna say that next year? Now they must recruit DBs for next years class. Howard would've competed for playing time right away.

His final three are Miami, FSU, UF. Kid was never leaving the state and the staff knows that. Ý'all can say whatever you want bout the staff dropping the ball. No, they did not.

Luckily we just red-shirted 2 corners who have very bright futures and are bringing in 2 more who are excellent prospects.

David Jenkins played so he didn't get a redshirt if that is one of the two you are talking about

Did Jalen Collins blow his RS? Could've swore I saw his dreadlocks in a game this year. I knew it was him simply by the dreads...

That was pretty surprising btw. I expected Jenkins to get PT before anyone. I'm going to laugh at MSU/Ole Miss for not offering a CB with a 3.9 shuttle if he turns into a steal.

I think he played some in the Auburn game when Simon and Mathieu were suspended. I could go look through the participation reports but I thought someone mentioned he played in a game.
