Alright why is it that everyone thinks LSU stole Kwon Alexander? He's a good player, but is 4-3 OLB. He is too small to play in our defense considering our safeties are the same size. We made the exchange, Devall for Alexander and it worked out for both sides. Big deal.
Kenny Bell is a track star who weighs maybe 150 pounds and caught some nice deep balls. During his time at Alabama, he would not have started over Randle, OBJ, and Landry and whoever else at LSU. Ill give them that but he was a very good deep threat that you and everyone else could have used. He was a situational guy for us. Did his part.
C-Rob: Rhetorical
Collins: Rhetorical
Lacy: Who did you sign at RB in place of him? Spencer Ware, Michael Ford, and Alfred Blue? They did well and are currently going off, right? Hill and Ridley were good, but you could have used Lacy and grade issues or not he was a hell of a player. Signed in the same class as Trent Richardson for us.
Hootie Jones is a solid safety. Wavered on his Alabama commitment a little but not for LSU. He considered OM and LSU, but decided Alabama was the right decision. Rushed his choice at his ceremony. We will see who ends up being the better safety between he and Adams in a couple of years when both are full time starters. Right now he is behind a top 10 pick at SS. I think you may know him
Cameron Sims may or may not have been offered. Congrats on Quinn and Dupre? Get a QB who can throw to them. Sims is still a good player and is seeing the field for a top 5 team in the country. He and Robert Foster and Calvin Ridley will likely make up our Receiving Corps on the outside next season with Black and Stewart.
I hope we can hang on to Shyheim Carter and snag Willie Allen.

Oh we're paying our coaches to "respect" our school? Maybe that why LSU hasnt won anything lately, you're paying your coach to do the wrong thing, we pay ours to win Championships. And he's pretty good at it..
U would think Nick would give Mighty Alabama a little credit for his success as well. Its not like multiple coaches havent won there.
But what does he do after Your school helped make him one of the GOAT's? He interviews with Texas, who is one of the few schools with alot more money than u. Just to let u know who is really running things over at your great school. The football coach. And dont forget it.
Just letting u Gumps know, who needs who the most.
He is good at winning and lying and holding your school hostage. Pay him a 100 million.

LSU fans can mock Kenny Bell all they want but he was offered a scholly by Miles and was a steady contributor at Alabama. He was on the field on 1-9 and was leading the nation in yards per catch in 2012 before he was injured. I love how with Tiger fans, these guys are world beaters if they wind up at LSU and scrubs at Alabama. Better to be a scrub with a ring than a world beater without. They can say now that Landon Collins is the only one that really hurt to lose but I remember the melt for every one.

I see.

Yeah can't believe we didn't take Cam mf'n Sims over the #1 and #3 WRs in the country as well as 2 other guys that will end up being way better and wanted to wear the LSU uniform. We've been more than fine at safety since LC signed and there is no way I'd trade Jamal for Hootie. Losing C-Rob sucked for sure but other than that meh most stay home but can't keep errbody. Monroe is just as close to Tuscaloosa as it is BR.

Wow... Well that dude must be touched by the hand of God... It's a wonder that brain can generate enough power to keep his legs moving or that he can even tie his own shoes, let alone play football.

Why are LSU fans so mad about what Alabama pays thier coach??? 
Its been 10 years since he left yall, accept he's not coming back.

Did more at Bama than he could have at LSU, because of the guys you mention.

Everyone but Bama backed off Lacy because he would not qualify. That one comes down to REC doin work.

In no universe would I take Hootie Jones over Jamal Adams.

We do have a QB that can throw to them, both of these guys have made big plays already. Bama is a top 5 team right now on reputation alone, they haven't beaten anyone yet.

I like our chances with both these guys, Carter would be less of a loss though.

If by interview you mean them try to throw a $100M at him and beg him to come save them but him turning them down, then yea I guess the interveiw went pretty good.

Nice homer rant but also factually incorrect. Read my post again because I explain each one. I really tried to give you some factual info so you would learn. Just because you covet a guy doesn't mean we do. Sometimes we do and sometimes we don't-because we have our own roster and our own targets and priorities in a given year. Sorry if the whole "too much Gump" thing makes you lack the CLARITY to read and comprehend the nuance involved in each individual situation. Sadly, I can't make you be intellectually curious or interested in objective truth.

You must have not seen Sims senior year highlights. LSU didn't pursue him hard because they wanted Malachi and Speedy.

Yep, but it's still in LA and Monroe is ate up with Purple and Gold.
Hootie went to my high school and watched him play as well as Diarse. He actually played mostly QB at Neville and I thought he was solid Ole Miss after he de-commited.
Posted on 11/4/14 at 11:10 am to MWP
I really am curious why he decommitted then recommitted to Bama.
Posted on 11/4/14 at 11:13 am to GIbson05
Not too worried, Alabama isn't even the best team in their state.

True, I forgot they had to pony up when Texas went after Saban.
