My question is why would anyone actually leak the info before hand and try to ruin the moment for a kid making his announcement?


moment is NOT ruined, as everyone will still be freaking out when its time for his announcement

(not saying anything about which school he's going to, just a general question on shittyness behind undercutting a kids big announcement, regardless of who the kid is or which school he goes to)




Because people want to be known as "insiders" or they want to placate to their customers on pay sites. Everyone has these people.

Writing is on the wall buddy

IMHO this recruitment might get your rec coordinator at LSU fired and I only told a snippetz there is MUCH more to the story

And all are right on EG, 100% Bama, was a lock when Saban and Sal visited earlier in Dec and another result of that trip will commit tomm Cyrus Jones

I guess I'm still an idiot and have no inside info ah well you guys are lucky I have thick skin, but I will continue the good fight for the ones who read and enjoy.




Landon might choose LSU, but you don't know anything dude.

You really should be banned for starting rumors like that.

This is a great question. Unfortunately, some people value the notoriety given to them for disclosing private information more than their oaths of confidentiality.

Some people just can't keep their damn mouths shut.

So, since everyone will still be freaking out over it, they either believe the leaked info but think there is a chance it can change, or they don't believe the info at all. So why would anyone bother leaking the info if it isn't going to be trusted one way or the other?

Not tying to start anything, but he has been 100 percent accurate on everything he has posted.

Are you really wondering why people gossip and share secrets?

C'mon, man.

Guys like to act like it's only girls that love to be attention whores and gossip, but dudes love it, too.

Some guys just need validation from strangers on the internet.

I'm specifically wondering what someone truly on the inside in a situation like this would have to gain by leaking this type of information.

something tells me you wouldn't care about this if the word on the street wasn't Bama

But really, these people share their "inside" info to gain credibility for when/if they are proven right. It is leaked because people want to feel more confident, because they want to have an idea of what might happen. Does this really need to be explained?

It will sting if he ultimately chooses Bama, I won't deny that. But in the last couple years, I've had to dial back my intensity when it comes to these type of things. I need LSU football to be one of my releases, if I let it become one of my stressors, I'm doing it wrong.

I'm speaking in more general terms though. I struggle to get why people need the validation of internet strangers to feel good about themselves.

you keep defending him, but he has literally covered every possible base on this thing.
lc to lsu? check
lc to bama? check
lc to the moon? check

you cant be wrong when you dont actually take a stance.
besides, his "frank wilson may lose his job" line was the funniest thing i have read on either recruiting board

Amen. I was physically ill - throwing up, after Alabama lost on 11/05 (go ahead and laugh). I didn't participate in anything football related online for like 3 weeks, didn't listen to sports radio, watch any sports related tv, and I actually skipped watching the Alabama/MSU game the following week.

I then realized that I was taking this shite too seriously (recruiting included). Oh well. Now I'm all worked up over recruiting and the BCSCG again.

This. I think it's the other way around for far too many on here at times.

Attention? Praise? Validation? Approval?

People in high places love to show how awesome they are and the internet gives them a way to do that with less fear of consequences.

Hell, there is a reason why 24/7, Scout, and Rivals continue to rake in the cash - people want the scoop.

LSU's Tiger Lawyer just updated their recruiting sites and said that it's not good news for LSU on Collins.


Second, does anyone know how long I can keep this erection from tonight's news before I go to the ER?
