Wut?

AT is very good at his job and will be an NFL GM. If you want to have the best staff, then you would want him to be on yours.

He hasn’t done anything scandolous, there’s been no betrayal. There isn’t even any proof he had anything to do with Traore going on his visit. Didn’t someone confirm that his teammates wanted to visit Tenn and he just wanted to go with them? If so, I don’t think that means he’s wavering one bit.

If AT comes back with a raise and a bigger buyout, then LSU wins and AT wins. That would be the best of all worlds.

Will he think he's being hired to do that then end up selling popcorn?

Nah he would not want to take your job. Afraid of losing your job? Do you suck at selling popcorn too?

Exactly he can’t even go out an recruit off campus now since Meatball was hired.

Why do people keep parroting this?

The odds of this happening are slim and he’s not even on the correct career path for that.

If that’s his goal, he needs to go to the NFL now and try to get a scouting or business side position.

Please god bring him back life isn't worth living without him. Sign a blank check and hand it too him before it's too late! Then sign his son to a contract because we will need him too when his fathers life long contract ends.

He wanted to be unemployed in Tennessee instead of making six figures in Louisiana? He must have really hated it here.

I'm glad most of these revenge artists aren't in charge of anything close to the Tiger program.

Go to DandyDons website and read the mailcall piece where he answers a question regarding this issue this morning. Might shed some new light on the situation, if his source is accurate.

You realize Meatball has been on staff for over a year now, right?

As valuable as AT appears to have been over the last few years, I would lean towards not to accept him back. Recruiting is volatile and you cant depend on someone like AT to be on your recruiting staff. He has shown he doesnt plan on being at LSU for any extended period so teams will likely use this to negatively recruit LSU.

His ability to return to LSU if that is what he wants to do now is directly related to the manner in which he left. I'm not aware of any comments made officially by anyone on the staff. Just my take but I doubt he returns for many of the reasons stated above.

Exactly. Now, anytime his name gets linked to a recruit, other schools in the mix will just use it against LSU. I'm in the camp of letting him move on. He's tried to leave twice now.

no
According to Dandy Don/Scott, he ain't all that anyway and not near the pillar of recruiting as once believed.
Oh, and he left for more dough/respect/?? and not because he missed home.

I think he has burned his bridge with LSU. Once is understandable. Twice and he's out the door for good. Let him go somewhere where he will feel more "appreciated." Sounds like to me the little bastard has some maturity issues and needs to grow up a little.
