Exactly. I don't pretend to be an insider, don't subscribe to any pay sites. Just calling it like I see it. You've been coming into every thread all morning pitching this narrative like it didn't come from the same people who were positive "bama's getting played!" right up until the announcement. Why aren't you more skeptical of those sources?

I have no idea who this Boots character is, but your tone seems to imply he wasn't right. The guy nailed it. Can't say the same for the LSU camp.

That's not premium information. That came straight off the recruiting board.

Or... a more plausible answer, he simply changed his mind. Imagine that.

Not a single bit has been wrong.

The sources, LC's family, can only report what they have been told. They can't be faulted for repeating what he says.

Landon is the one that lied. It isn't like it is groundbreaking or unprecedented in the world of recruiting.

But I guess Bama recruits are incapable of lying. . .only Bama is immune. . .

His Mom's reaction tells you that, were she informed, it was very recent.

His Dad was telling people his son was committing to LSU as recently as the day of the game.

^^This.

You have some LSU fans upset just because we loss a top national recruit to a hated rival.

You have other fans upset at how LC treated LSU program, the state, his family, his community, etc. on his way out of town. He did some lying in Les' office last week and I'm assuming he did some lying at home. (Devall has caught no backlash and he's even made anti-LSU comments regarding the NC game. He handled his situation better.)

I've seen both Bama and Aub fans react to in-state guys that don't even leave Alabama. They just embarrass Bama or Aub during their recruiting process. It leaves a bad taste.

Go to your school of choice. Don't lie or embarrass people or institutions on your way out.

That's just as classless as the people spewing negative comments and tweets at LC and his gf right now.

All the sources I quoted were around 50/50 LSU/Bama.

The only ones playing the "bama is getting played" angle were people who were successfully trolling you guys.

What tough time?

Know what brought me to the recruiting boards this AM?

Not who Collins picked. It was your fans insulting the kid's mother.

You apparently don't understand what "successfully trolling" means. Head over to the RB this morning and see how much it was just trolling.

You can spin it out however you want; it was not a last second decision no matter how many times you say it.

it is the reason his Mom was upset, and the reason his Dad wouldn't even show up.


LC said he told her a week ago.

Any chance he didn't show up because he's seen his baby's mama in action before and figured she might do the same?

You are mad because you think he lied and strung LSU along purposely.

Yet outside out what a few are saying on this site, the same ones that are trying to save face for being wrong about his commitment, you have zero proof of any of that.

You are implying that the "premium guys" were saying that Bama was getting played.

Unless you can back that up with some links, I will call bullshite. The only premium site I can't account for is rivals.

Because frick rivals.

I was talking about posters on here that said yesterday afternoon the Bama was getting played. I thought you meant they were successfully trolling. They were neither successful or trolling.

Check the first threads I posted in this AM.

Zero proof of what?

We know he lied to his Dad. . .per his Dad.

The stringing LSU along. . .well that is assuming Landon told the truth in his interview.

If he did, then he strung them along, intentionally.

If he didn't, he lied.

Both are annoying, but neither is unprecedented.

They were.

Because it got many of you in a tizzy.

The fact that you are still talking about it, means they were successful.
