Buga pain train told me he was a L5U lock.

Must have been part of his misinformation campaign now that he is working for the Ole Miss recruiting machine

He was an LSU lock until he had a shitty senior season/got fat and LSU backed off according to people on the recruiting board. Believe or don't believe, but that's what "they" say.

Ed Orgeron was not impressed with Shavar after seeing him in person. Good pickup Gators

Don't believe the ranters. He was a take at LSU. Solid pickup.

I don't think he was. But good pickup for UF. Hopefully he gets his pre-injury game back

Great pick up. Potential is there to be a stud.

This wasnt the ranters, it was insiders (like Sonny/Shea) saying we stopped recruiting him a month or two ago. Just didnt have a good season and grades are an issue...put our focus on guys like Lawrence, Christmas-Giles and Gary.

Whether the stuff about LSU backing off is true or not, I hope he really does well for the Gators unless they play LSU. Good get Gators.

I mean, I can believe that he had a bad senior season because the fact is that he didn't start for IMG. But at the end of the day, he's a solid 4* prospect who at this current evaluation may be an impact sophomore instead of an impact freshman. If he called up LSU and wanted to commit, he's in the class. I just think people see these sort of things as too black and white, like LSU is either breaking down the kid's door, or telling them to take a hike, haha. It just doesn't work like that.

Now we close out with Fulton, Wilson, Cleveland, and Stove/Victor/NCM and call it a day

Sometimes it does work like that. This is a case where we stopped recruiting a guy, it happens regularly every year with every school and guys they recruit. Thats not to say hes terrible, we just went a different direction and didnt want to deal with his grade issues. Christmas-Giles blew up locally and they focused their attention on him over Manuel.

No no, he just didn't check back with his "guy" recently enough. Lol, what a rube.

He became a DT prospect instead of a DE prospect, and we had in state guys higher on our board at DT with Alexander, Lawrence, Logan, and Christmas-Giles. Not to mention O will keep hard after Gary until he signs somewhere.

But I don't wanna hijack this thread. Sorry Florida guys. I'm sure Manuel will be a really good player at Florida. The ability and potential is there

I agree with what your saying, I'm just pointing out that recruiting most likely isn't a binary process regarding the allocation of time and resources. I agree that LSU put a bigger focus on other targets, but I just don't believe his offer was totally pulled. He would have been a fine addition to the class.
