So who is DW puttin the screws to? Seems like most believe he is an LSU lean...so why the new message? "Many" believe he is a silent to LSU but this doesn't seem to be in their favor. Looks like he's going out of state

Apparently your insiders believe he's LSU bound.

No the Tiger recruiting board...though now I can't post there. I'm sure you remember.

None of the insiders know anything on DW

Buga shouts the loudest so reason says he is most likely wrong

I wouldn't put any stock in Otis Kirk.

This. Our 247 site is easily the worst of any of the Arkansas recruiting sites.

I highly doubt White would commit to Arkansas but I definitely wouldn't come to that opinion off of what Otis says.

While I'm not saying his word is as good as gold he was the only one even mentioning White to Arkansas as a possibility and even he just basically gave up on that.

Like most have reiterated, Arkansas isnt in it really anymore. He took a visit there with the family connection but it didnt really turn out to be anything.

The best part about that is a good portion of the Arkansas 247 board told him he had bad info. He claims he has some "very good" inside source that told him it would be Arkansas. My guess is that that person is related to Jared Cornelius and probably a little biased.

Should not be employed by 247. It blows my mind how bad he is at his job.

I don't get it either. I would love to know what sort of metric he is graded on by the 247 guys. I'm assuming one of it is stories per day beause he sits on stories all the time to have allegedly daily content. And the recruiting content there is minimal at best compared to Rivals, Scout and the ADG.

I know nothing about Otis Kirk, I was just refuting the claim that only "LSU insiders" felt like White was coming to LSU. Add the Ole Miss 247 mod to this list as he recently did the same.

Not sure if these guys are hearing something concrete or just reading the tea leaves. Who knows.

I really don't know why LSU fan goes to such lengths just to be an a-hole towards Arkansas fan. According to the board, Arkansas is absolutely no threat to LSU in any way, shape, or form. The insecurity of LSU fan in every single thread even mentioning Devin White gives most Hog fans hope.

Fact of the matter is there is major mutual interest between DW and Arkansas. Believe what you want but it's the truth. Does that mean he will sign with Arkansas? Of course not, but to act like it's some kind of joke is ridiculous.

To the other a-hole earlier in the thread inquiring about the last 5 star Arkansas had signed, I believe it was Hunter Henry just 2 years ago. there is a chance I am forgetting someone however.

This isn't Houston Nutts Arkansas, Bielema is very successful in the recruiting trail and has Arkansas in on a whole new level of athletes than what Arkansas traditionally gets and the Hogs are definitely on the rise. A few insecure LSU fans can do nothing to change that.

Im not sure why this was in response to me. A few Arkansas fans feel they are very much in it when in this case it just well, isn't the case. I dont understand why this is so hard to get. It would be like LSU fans saying we're in it for McTelvin Agim, we're not.

I responded to you just because you are the last one to say there is no chance. Wasn't personal, just convenient. If you look back you will see several of your brothers flaming Hog fans in every thread that mentions his name. Not one time has any Arkansas fan not given LSU the lead on him that's have seen. The kid is an in state guy for LSU, I would hope you guys would have an upper hand.

Completely agree. I wish some of our recruiting guys would stop pushing this message with White. It just isn't happening.

Although when asked tonight about who we had a chance with other than White, one of our better recruiting guys responded with four names of which two of them aren't really even considering Arkansas.

My problem really isn't with the White sweepstakes, it's with the fan who incessantly flames the board. This recruiting site was a safe haven from the unnecessary flame attempts for the first 30 minutes or so I joined this board. Not so much anymore

If someone is flaming on here then defintely RA their post. The mods react much quicker to deleting posts on her than elsewhere because this is supposed to be a flame free board. However, they aren't reading every thread so they asked everyone to RA the troll posts.

Yeah, I never RA although it's happened to me several times. I just dont get the pile on certain teams fans enjoy. And then to turn around and claim superiority is mind boggling. It is rather funny though
