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

Auburn’s out of state tuition is expensive, no?

Our son is just a kicker, so teams really have to need one to recruit one. Preferred Walk On is the offer they give if they want you to come compete for the job…and they will give you some NIL money, but we’d have to do the logistics of housing and books and tuition.

Did go to Auburn…but we were unaware that they redshirted McPherson last year…and picked up a good PWO in Towns.

We get to see how next season goes before he has to make a decision.
