Keep talking though. Its hilarity.
You and Cam besties and talk on the phone about high school life?
This bear knows more about where he's going than you do.

Ironic coming from an LSU fan...
LSU and Ole Miss are the only constants in his whole recruitment.
I won't say he's not considering UT, but to base it on "so and so says they want to play together."
How many times does that get said? Here is a hint. Every single year since recruiting became more mainstream with the evolution of social media and, the additional increase in interest and access.
In the end talk and conjecture like that can be summed up as being emotionally caught up in the moment.

Alright, yeah I should include Ole Miss as well. However, I think they are a distant 3rd atm. If LSU had big staff issues a week ago, Ole Miss has an enormous hill to climb with their own openings.

Open staff positions, at least that matter to a RB (RB coach, OL coach, and OC) are filled but no idea how receptive he will end up being to our new OC. His dad doesn't like him. His issue with LSU wasn't as much not having an OC but thr fact O told him it was going to be Kiffin and he eventually learned that wasn't true. Both OM and LSU insiders seem to think the other is running third. it will be interesting to see who is right. I hope you aren't basing it on a poster (ifyouonlyknew) who spends most his time on Elite Dawgs.

I'm not basing it off anything. Also I never read State boards. I'd get an aneurysm. Just when there are constants throughout a recruitment those tend to stay till the end. Then again it can be a fickle mistress as well. In the end I think he picks FSU. The window is open there, and he mentioned wanting to play for LSU if they hired Jimbo.
However I also feel he is not ready to step in immediately. So a RS year at LSU or wherever is probably needed. Physically he's not ready for the workload and necessity of being a blocker on passing downs or misdirection plays. Playing QB for 4 years can do that.

People act like FSU doesn't have elite RBs on their roster too. They also have two studs in this class alone. The path to early playing time is arguably the same at each school. The path to being the man is considerably easier at LSU once you take Guice out of the equation a year from now.
I think LSU having an OC in place now puts them right back in the drivers seat with FSU. The only reason LSU "faded" was due to not having an OC

Just watched his highlights and state championship. That is the best player in the country right now. Not sure what you guys see that makes you think he is not ready to play day 1. Looks more ready than Harris but Harris could still add another 15 lbs. Keep him away from FSU at all costs.

Just the whole playing qb for 4 years. Going from playing qb for 4 years in highschool to playing rb in the SEC immediately would be a pretty big jump. I think he has the talent to do it no question, but I'd rather him have a backup role behind Guice his first year and then take over when Guice leaves. That'd be the perfect scenario for me. I'm praying he comes here man. I know it sounds crazy that LSU is short on runningbacks but if Guice got hurt next year we would be fricked.

Even Fournette took time to adjust. The fact that he never actually played running back in a real game isn't going to do him any favors.

Akers is going to do good things in the ACC.

LSU needs to send those bag men to Clinton ASAP.
