Son’ll play football for an SEC team not named LSU. I’m fine with it, but it doesn’t mean Im wearing their colors. I went to LSU for 8 years…

Good for you and your son! I am sure this is an exciting time for him and the family during the recruiting process.

Although my daughter (no pics) ended up at Auburn - and my family has a long history there - I really pushed her NOT to go there, which surprised many family and friends. Because she didn't receive a scholarship to Auburn I did push her to attend an instate (Louisiana) school because she could have gone to LSU or La Tech basically for free.

I can’t slip on another SEC school’s shirt and go out in public.

I remember during my daughters freshman orientation at Auburn there was a parent there wearing a shirt that was great - it was a crimson shirt and in white letters is said "this is my Auburn shirt" with the "A" in Auburn being the U of A script "A" LOL
