He goes to school on LSU's campus. I guess there is a lot of pro-LSU people around him. He was only on the team with Miles' kid the past 3 years.

He was in the 8th grade, im sure he just did what any 8th grader would do when offered by the college of their dreams.

He could want to and be pressured. I don't understand the backlash im getting for a pretty normal comment.

Nah, Bro. They don't put pressure on kids over there.

This was about as mature and professional a way to handle this as I've seen. I think he ends up at LSU in the end, but I'm sure he wants to enjoy the recruiting process and the attention. Most of these guys will play games with the schools and lead them on. I'm sure he told the LSU coaches they have nothing to worry about, but that is not going to stop the other schools from coming after him. I hope Ole Miss definitely checks to see if he is interested, but I don't want them to waste too much time. In the end, he will make a decision between Bama and LSU and choose LSU. That's what I'd put my money on at least.

Dylan Moses dad said you guys don't have a chance with his son. So I don't think any of this is your business.

I'm sorry, maybe he mistakenly mentioned "doing what's expected" of him twice in his message?

I follow all recruiting, especially division rivals and national recruits. I'd invite anyone taking exception to my remarks to read the multiple threads about Greg little on this same board

Again, it's because he's on LSU's campus everyday at the Lab school and was a teammate of Les' kid. It's not that hard to understand.

Because you're just speculating and trying to stir up shite in reality. You act like a gun was held to his head as a 14 year old to commit to LSU or else. LSU was his dream school growing up and spent all his time around here. He got an offer to play there, is it really that big of a surprise a 14 year old might want to commit to said school without "Pressure from everyone"?

Yeah, it's way too early for 2017 guys to commit two years early anyways. I think it's more telling how good of a position LSU is in, but I would want my free visits when possible. plus he probably knows his ranking will slip with the #1 guy's recruitment being such a bore for pay sites

Ed Alexander did the exact same thing, and I expect the same end result with Moses

Because he grew up around LSU and his family is all LSU, it's expected that kids go to LSU in that situation, not hard to pick up on.

That doesnt mean they pressured him to commit to LSU as soon as he was offered. It's what HE wanted to do.

He could still take visits and enjoy the process while being committed to LSU.
