He may very well have gotten Phillips to visit LSU with him, it looks like it. And hell, I don't know, Mullen and O may have some sort of collaboration going on. I know they are good friends, maybe they came at an agreement for Gay to help get Phillips to LSU. I know both Gay and Leo ended with visits to LSU. I also know O was instrumental in steering Leo away from OM.

That's a lot of speculation, but I will tell you this, Willie was never going anywhere other than State. He bleeds maroon and white, don't buy the shite about him wanting to be at LSU but his mom liking State. Not to say he doesn't like LSU, I'm sure he does. But you're essentially trying to recruit away a homer.

Not that I think he doesnt choose state, but I think you're being a little too disingenuous on how much he loves State vs. other schools. This kid committed to your biggest rival at one time. He helped recruit a top ILB to LSU. He's not bashful at all about telling to anyone and everyone how much he likes LSU. Normally, when it's hush hush, I get it, but he's exactly the opposite of that and this is why so many people were projecting Gay to LSU, not just homer mods and the such. If his mom wasn't in the picture at all, most say he'd choose LSU, but she just doesn't want him going anywhere but staying home, and she's made that very clear.
