Whatever ends up happening, I just hope this kid isn't being forced somewhere and ends up where he wants to be. Whether it's SC, LSU, wherever, it's ultimately his choice and the final decision should be his.

The way I read it is that Burch really wants to be at LSU but feels obligated to go to USC. His mom being aware of his true feelings wants him to not feel obligated and to go to where his heart leads him, which is LSU. He just feels it would be easier on his mom and family if he goes to USC. Less blowback on the family.

To be honest it really sounds like she is holding out to potentially get a large sum of mula. Trying to scare South Carolina by not signing if they dont

I’m guessing that the kid is still undecided and mom is taking the heat.

but it was not faxed over to the university.


Are LOI's the only thing left in the world that is still being faxed?

This. It's like a UHigh kid going to Bama, but LSU actually has other elite recruits every year. Burch is their elite recruit because nobody wants to go lose half their games every year in Columbia, SC. Therefore, he has somewhat backed himself into a corner and doesn't know how to escape.

I think the term faxed is used colloquially when the paper work is actually scanned and emailed.

Nobody really knows anything for sure and it’s absurdly entertaining no matter what happens next. Lol

It adds up perfectly.

It actually adds up more every time you think about it.

She’s ok with him going to SC bit is blocking him sending in his LOI? Yea i don’t buy that. I believe they never signed a LOI. They signed a random form yesterday and quickly flipped it over so no one could see it.

Just when we thought that yesterday was a dud. We get the gift that keeps on giving.

My USCe buddies are saying the mom is waiting on the bag man. Not kidding.

Also said the reason Burch and family left in the middle of a USCe visit to go to UGA was that UGA gave his mom $15k to visit, which I don't believe, but whatever.

That's an hilarious explanation by those fools at 247.

Wow.

UGA people saying that momma Burch was given a massive promotion at a construction company to ensure her son goes to USCe.

I wonder if that hasn't materialized yet so she's waiting to sign that dotted line first?

Supposedly the financial aid paperwork has to be signed by a guardian.

Yea? We can let her own her own construction company down here. Plus it would be a DBE! Everybody wins
