Just want the people on here, even the one that called me stupid... to know that it was nothing personal against LSU. As you said, he was very disappointed to have to decommit. Him having the character and integrity that he has, made a very tough and unselfish decision for his family.

Are you stupid? In-state tuition is around $3,900 per semester which is fully covered by TOPS. At most, his room and meal plan is $3,000 per semester. With TOPS and the $4,000 LSU offered, he was not placing a $40,000 burden on his parents.

The kid isn't worth a full offer. He's good, but he's not a top 10 high school player in the nation.
Tuition and fees 8,758
Housing 6,120
Meal Plan 4,168
Books and Supplies 1,500
That totals 20,564 to be exact.
Look it up before you call me stupid.

Oh and check out this link. He's being watched for POY nationally, Einstein!

Also note that the Tops Opportunity award does not cover all fees, as shown in the link below it covers approximately 6,400 per year.

LSU costs a little over 20,000 per year. Tops pays 6,400 per year. Scholarship offer was around 3,500 per year. Which leaves approximately 10,000 to come up with per year. Approx 40,000 over 4 years.
The difference was enough, that he chose to decommit to a college that he wanted to go to rather than burden his parents with the cost.
Thank You! LSU's offer was the minimum. As Tornation stated above, it was a take it or leave it. He left it and got a better offer two months later. Simple as that.
Not Something you can fault the kid for either.
