re: Props to OM and to LSU... Look for yourself.

Hard to make a comparison when Jennings was a true frosh against a top 15 defense in his first start. Where as jefferson was a senior with plenty of experience and had beaten Bama earlier in the year.

Is AJ returning?

he whole decommit mess with Hootie was ploy. Get LSU to bite on Hootie and screw up the progress made on Jamal Adams. LSU didn't bite.

the only thing worse than this thread is the fact some of you LSU fans actually believe this crap.

I see the Bama Butt Hurt continues. I guess watching their in-state Big Brother win a second BCSNCG tonight is stressing them out. Lot's of psychological deflection going on here, it's almost like the OP has no knowledge of Hootie's Mom getting torched after the de-commit from Bama on Twitter by Bama fans. I'll leave The Truth here for the record in case anybody cares:

Hootie was a top LSU target for years. They were EXTREMELY Surprised when he choose Alabama because he told them he was all LSU. Because safety is an extreme need at LSU they looked at other options IMMEDIATELY. They were pretty shocked that a higher ranked prospect (Adams) had any interest in LSU. Ed Paris then brought him down to LSU and the visit went about as well as it could. He basically fell into LSU's lap. It was not expected and the LSU staff could not believe their good fortune.

Hootie had cooled on Alabama for reasons unknown and "de-committed" . He had "his people" contact LSU to let them know he had reconsidered and was interested in LSU . LSU had already moved on with Jamal Adams and was not willing to do anything that would alienate Adams. SO THEY NEVER CONTACTED HOOTIE OR RETURNED ANY CALLS TO HIS "HANDLERS". They also instructed their Under Armour recruits not to insinuate to Hootie that LSU still wanted him.

LSU told Adams that he was their number one priority, but as the safety position is CRITICAL to the 2014 class,and they needed another one at the position, they would want him to "commit" off the record PRIOR TO THE UNDER-ARMOUR GAME or they would be forced to continue with a back-up plan. Adams thought about it and "committed to LSU".

Hootie, not hearing any positive response from LSU for almost TWO WEEKS, through "his people" threw out the names of Ohio State (implausibly) and Ole Miss to save face, having rebuffed Alabama for some reason. Saban and Alabama continued contact with him and let him know his spot was still there.

LSU by not contacting him and not returning "his handlers" calls were STRONGLY encouraging him to move along.

In essence, Hootie essentially talked his way out of going to LSU by publically "committing" to Alabama even when his heart was really not into it and "forcing" them to switch gears. Once Adams was on board there was no need for Hootie, particularly since he had an "entourage" involved in his recruitment, and his Mother was engaging in a juvenile Twitter Hatefest with the ignorant fans of several schools.

Many LSU fans will blast LSU as if LSU "lost him" not realizing that LSU had already reached agreement with Adams, and had made a business decision to move on. Many Bama fans will ignorantly believe that LSU was eager to get him because it fits their Narrative, not realizing that LSU felt that he had essentially forced their hand, AND THEY HAD LONG SINCE MOVED ON.

Hootie is now "that guy" that LSU coaches will use to tell recruits "if you want us to reserve your spot you better be 100% on board".

I would always hope for Bama fans to act this way in regards to recruits.

Yeah, because you guys don't...

1) Make death threats to recruits, current players, and their families.
2) Kill each other after LSU or Auburn losses.
3) Poison soil to kill trees.
4) Teabag opposing fans in public.
5) Jump on opposing fans in the stands because your team is getting beat (this is your women!)

Pretty classy bunch!

Bama fan talking about how bad LSU fans are... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAHA

Have you seen the news lately? Bama has the WORST fanbase and that is a fact. Don't shoot, teabag, poison my oak trees, or jump me for saying it either.

Hootie has the right to go wherever he wants to go.

Good luck to him, We are very happy with Adams being onboard.

But, with that said, Kids like him and CRob brought everyones wrath upon themselves with their own trash talking about LSU and the state.

It is a case of what goes around, comes around.

People wants to dismiss bad behavior on the fact that they are just kids, I say bullshite !

We have 19 year old kids dying in war that act like men, these kids should do the same.

And I am sure that Gumps have never bashed a recruit before right ?

Your narrative on the Hootie situation is 100% accurate! As for Sims,,, LSU did not ever want or offer him, so whatever he does is cool! In Crob's case his immediate actions after he committed to Bama by degraging the state of La. with his big red A across showed so much disrespect and classless behavior Bama can have him!! I for one hate the Hootie situation, but the other two hope they leave and never come back!! And take all the Bama handlers and fans in NE La. with them.
In fact maybe they can all move to Fla. with April and her boys and drama when they are done?? wherever!!
