Are you illiterate? I was throwing out a random thought, I don't think that's actually why happened. Regardless, you apparently didn't catch the principle of what was posted. Gay would have been helping get Phillips to LSU, O has a lot to gain from that situation and literally nothing to lose.
So why exactly would Gay want to recruit someone to a school he has no interest in attending himself? While I definitely think Gay ends up at State, it seems pretty obvious it's because of his mother but he would prefer to go to LSU. Normally kids want their friends and other good players to join them at the school they plan on attending, not a competitor. Hell, I'm going to State and playing LSU the next 4 years, I should probably help them get the best linebacker in the nation to make them that much better. Makes a lot of sense.

So you think coaches don't collaborate at all when it comes to recruiting? Again, I'm not sure and I don't think that's what happened. But they would be crazy not to work with other coaches from time to time. You scratch my back, I scratch yours.
This is just an example of how that would/could work. Mullen knows Gay is solid to State, has an opportunity to throw O a bone and use Gay to get Phillips on campus. Sure, it doesn't help State for that to happen, but when the favor is returned it does.
