Or you just choose to see the negative in someone and are just completely throwing out the fact that maybe the kid is just truly torn on where he wants to go. He has definitely not been the attention seeker. They have every right to take ALL the time that is allotted to them to make one of the BIGGEST decisions in their life. Stfu

Not signing today
Tells me Bama probably doesn't have room


They have 14 enrolled an 12 signed LOI on 247 right now. They signed 25 last year.

They have 26 commits..

Would you say that if he was Terrace Marshall or Jamar Chase... of course not because those are proven commodities. He does have that potential and his ceiling is higher than most or all we have signed.

By your measure, comparing all recruits to all time LSU players, we should wait around for every single high potential prospect in the state. He could be the next Jamarr Chase or OBJ ! Meanwhile , the 2021 season rolls around and you have two questions. Why is this player on the bench with eight guys ahead of him and why was our depth at other positions not addressed. Again, after today- go get some linebacker depth or wherever else you feel the roster is thin. It’s just a philosophical difference on roster management. Not a statement about you or Brian Thomas.

I think LSU would still take him but I agree, if he's not on board at this point, LSU is more focused on the WR at Newman and Preston. That's two guys that they definitely want in state in the 22 class and Thomas could affect both of those decisions. You could easily use those spots on more need positions in the transfer market.

First of all, he’s not obligated to sign today

Second, he doesn’t do the special media BS or the top 20, top 15, top 10 BS

So STFU

You know who had one of the most up-and-down recruitments in recent memory? Ja'marr chase. And you'd have said "frick this guy, lets move on"

Dad looking for the highest bidder past today so not today. I ain't got no problem with players getting what they should but right now...LSU should avoid due to the investigations in the program.

The dates of the signing days aren't some mystery shrouded in secrecy and the kid has had offers from many schools for at least, if not over a year. At some point you have to make a decision. What is going to tip the scales one way or the other by waiting another 2, 3, 14 days? You've know the choices for over 300+ days.

You're right. Which is why I think the kid knows where he wants to go and HAS known where he wants to go for some time now. Unfortunately, this situation reeks of "adults" trying to decide where the kid should go rather than the kid, which last I checked this is HIS life, making his own decision.

No need to worry about this kid! Would like to have a talented in state player, but he's not a can't miss recruit and we'll be fine without him if that's the way it goes. Attended a lot of Walker games and I was more impressed with his teammate (Jalen Cook).

Seems like the kid plus mom favor LSU but Dad wants $$ and Aggie. This is a crazy situation.
