Thanks for update good to hear.

That is good news!

Of all our current commitments, is he the guy who is rumored as the biggest risk to flip?
Posted on 7/23/23 at 8:30 pm to Keys Open Doors
I think it is just because he takes alot of visits. He says great things about every school he visits nothing unusual. I think he is just enjoying the process.

He’s also living in A&M territory now and they’re coming at him hard

A guy on here (can’t recall username) is apparently close to the guy who Xavier is living with now. Says the guy is big time LSU and maintains that Xavier is still solid for now, but enjoying the process. Long way to go and anything can change but we have more going for us here than I think most people think.

This is good news for sure.

I forget the little guy's name, but there's a kid who has a YouTube channel and he interviewed Xavier last year. His dad posts here.
Anyways, after watching that interview I just can't see Atkins going anywhere but LSU.

This dude is a freak RAW athlete who is from Hodge a small town in NELa, he plays on pure athletic ability. He probably left to Texas to get to better facilities and coaching, his soph year he had 218 tackles, that’s roughly Damn near every tackle the D made. He was big for team, meaning his size 6’1” 210 , small school like many La public schools didn’t have much in facilities or money to concentrate on sports. He even returned punts & ran the ball, he was the football program.
Traveling and all the attention he’s getting is not something he’s used to so Good for him to experience this. He’ll get a Lot more attention in Texas as far as recruiting goes. I don’t know but I’m sure it’s gratifying for him to soak all this up. I just hope he knows or is not tempted to follow the bs money trail for his college choice. I’m sure this is overwhelming to him and his family and probably easy to get caught up in this sketchy crewtn stuff especially from Faggieland whom seem to just throw money at everyone they recruit. LSU despite my bias is the best for him but to a wide eyed country boy from Hodge the temptation is around every corner.
With 2?years of coaching, nutrition, discipline, and ALIGNMENT at LSU , imho we got a beast in the making. In some games in high school he looked like a big 8th grader playing peewee football. When playing far better equipped high schools , he was still the best athlete on the field but clearly outnumbered by the other teams. I just hope he doesn’t get caught up in the whoopla and sticks with the tigers. If he would’ve stayed in La his commitment would’ve stuck. It’s just scary now that he’s branched out for more publicity and eyes on him now. I hope he stays true to his heart and commitment to LSU. I’m still glad he’s getting his due but I’m kinda selfish in wishing he was still a secret. I’m sure he’ll move up in the rankings now on a bigger stage, just hope he sticks with the Purple & Gold. He’s a Good One.
Well Big money once again influences

Never going to say hateful things about a 17yr old kid that is making a decision for himself even if I don’t agree with it -

Not officially. It's probably just a matter of time though
Posted on 7/31/23 at 7:56 am to SETH6180
If True Good Luck to him.
Posted on 8/1/23 at 9:13 am to Sissidog02
He left JB because of differences with the coaching staff.

There's a nebulous term. Any insight into what those differences were?
