re: Landon Collins 5* S from La

i knew you were in CYA mode once you said LSU had started to death threat momma as a last resort. I guess with this thread you have covered all possible scenarios and can tell everyone that you were right.

I feel for you dude. You probably think you are doing right and you might be doing just that. You have to remember you are what was formally a LSU website talking about Louisiana's best recruit this year. We know we will find some stuff out tomorrow.

Just leave it at that at this point. No need to change the story every hour as it changes.

Eta: Either 2 things are going to hap: He goes to Bama and people say you were right and be real quiet or he goes to LSU and people will get banned for always harassing you.

That was Tidesaint

Some great quotes from LC on TS article:

quote:

---

"I talked to Coach (Burton) Burns and Coach (Nick) Saban," Collins said. "Saban was just telling me to have fun out there. It's a great experience. He was saying, 'You know how much you mean to our team. We love you no matter what. Alabama is going to be home to you.'"

"When I step on the (Alabama) campus, when I go to the school, no matter what, I feel at home," Collins said. "It feels like a quiet place for me. That's what I've grown up under, a quiet home. I didn't really do too much. I stayed to myself, and that's how I like to be. I also love the coaching staff and the boys that I talk to up there.

"(LSU) is five minutes away from home. My parents can come see my anytime they want. I grew up with some of the kids that are committed there. The coaching staff is fantastic, and I'd be playing behind Eric Reid all next year, and that's one of my best friends. I grew up wanting to play just like him."

quote:

"A lot of Alabama guys have been talking to me -- Eddie Williams, Reggie Ragland," Collins said. "They're saying, 'You know where you need to come. It's 'roll tide roll', that's where you need to be at.'"

---

And on the NC game:

quote:

---

"I can't give you a prediction, but I don't think it will be as low scoring again because I think they got something for each other," Collins said. "They have the packages ready for that game because they've had more time to prepare."

yeah i feel like its been LSU from the start and bama a close second...just seems to be to "easy" to pick LSU if you know what i mean

...no flame intended...but i would think if he likes the "loner" (maybe the wrong word to use there) type feel he gets at bama with nobody watching over his back 24/7 then that would weigh into his decesion somewhat

...good luck to LSU tho great get if he is yalls
seems like a sincere and honest kid

You leave me out of this!! I have been the only Bama fan who has questioned TrollTyde and you know that you Mud Island SOB!!

In all seriousness, I never said Alabama WOULD get all 5 players, but that if, and I believe I said it was a big IF, that they did that this class could possibly be the best ever.

There is no love lost between Troll and myself.

HA!

You people kill me with your so-called "sources" and "insiders." It's beyond comical to read these posts.

My source says that LC has decided to add Akron's hat at the table cause Terry's third chin is a recruiting monster.

Meh its a Tuesday and I am still hungover.
