re: HUUUUGE Weekend for recruiting in Ttown

I do, however, think it's stupid for someone to constantly rag others for being unreasonable and then in the same breath talk about how they should be allowed an opinion which is completely contrary to the judgment of the people who dedicate a lot more time, effort, and resources to recruiting.

I'm playing devil's advocate here, and for the record I don't think LF will be in Crimson next year. That being said, those who are paid big bucks all thought Hand was Michigan bound, save for Tim Watts at the last minute. These same people also had Drew Barker 81% to USCe. He is now committed to KY. All this to say that there have been other upsets in recruiting picks before.

I was referring to his opinion that Adams being better than Hootie was laughable.

I understand recruiting is fluid which is why I won't make definitive statements on who goes where. Bucc is obnoxiously overly optimistic, though.

I don't think that is why Bucc was laughing. It is more at how much your fanbase has waffled in its evaluation of players. In September when Cam committed, y'all were saying he was overrated and didn't want him. Besides, Hootie was the better Monroe prospect. Now that Hootie is for Bama, Hootie was overrated, didn't want him anyway, etc. I can't speak for Bucc, but from my perspective that may have given him a reason to laugh.

That's not exclusive to LSU, and I've never contended there any shortage of intellectually challenged LSU fans. Bama fans have just had less reason to react negatively in regards to CFB recently; plenty still rear their ugly heads when things happen to go wrong.

And he said "not even close" directly after a statement "quoting" some arbitrary LSU fan saying Adams is better... I'm not sure how that is supposed to be interpreted any way other than he thinks it's inconceivable to believe Adams is better than Jones.

Maybe when you are working your trainer job at LSU, you may have the opportunity to ask him next time he is in Baton Rouge.

Says you registered on 6/29/12

You weren't even here for that. How do you know?

I was "laughing" at the situation allowing LSU fans to all of a sudden declare Adams better and has any Bama fan done this? Hell yes it's just a funny instance

Adams is more athlete and will be one hell of a CB I feel and hell even Reid made a great S as the same build and mold so that's not at all saying he couldn't do it

Don't sit there and act like you aren't a homer thinking LF is a silent or lock...he's not

Adams will not ever play CB at LSU, you (as per usual) have no idea what you are talking about. Not to mention Adams and Reid do not have the same build and mold at all. WTF?

Hootie had a great sophomore year and got on the map early, is built like Tarzan, and everybody thought he was the next big thing in Neville after John Diarse. He is a good prospect, yes, but often disappears completely and terrified of run support. Watch Neville vs. EJ in the semis this year, Hootie's performance in that game was a complete farce. Fact is you don't pay nearly as close attention to La HS football as these LSU posters you are trying to clown.

Funny I never saw any critiques like this until after he committed

Haha, I guess you must have a different handle in multiple bama boards because I've seen it posted elsewhere. Do come with more jokes, it will improve your posting.

That's interesting because you quoted me ITT: LINK

But I'm sure you read it on other boards too and didn't just say that in an attempt to save face
