    He's visiting MSU.

    You're probably right, but why would he state he was making a "big" announcement? He is already committed to LSU and made a "shutting down my recruitment" tweet stating that he was staying with LSU after the coaching change. Just wondering if there is anything here or is the really about getting some attention.

    I asked lsu recruiting board on tiger droppings. If he's being dropped, they have no idea. Only guess they had was announcing jersey number.

    That hardly qualifies as a "big" announcement, but I guess that kind of stuff is a big deal to these kids.

    Carty CB'd to South Carolina again. They get last visit. Gotta figure if carty doesn't commit to us before that visit, we lose out again

    The second I saw that I knew you'd have a post about it. The 2 USCe guys say they get him, the 2 MSU guys say we do. I guess we will see who's right soon. No need to freak out every day.

    The CBs don't bother near as much as South Carolina getting the last visit. Boom is one hell of a recruiter and I don't like him getting the last sales pitch. Perhaps there's nothing to worry about; but like I said, if carty is uncommitted going to South Carolina on last weekend, I think they get him. You don't find it interesting that coming off an OV to us that they feel they get him? Seems carty would still be on his "high" for us coming off an OV here

    We seem to be very "business-like" with our OVs. Seldom do I get the feeling that one of our recruits is on a "high" after visiting at least not like you hear after some recruits visit other schools that seem to do more of the "wine and dine" thing. Isn't Carty the one that was reported to have committed on his visit and then backed off? That is a sort of a bad sign to me, but I'm usually pessimistic anyway.

    Yeah, that was him. I thought it was a good sign; but now that I think it, I don't think that has ever worked out for us. Hopefully we can get Carty though.

    Is Rhodes still expected to visit this weekend?

    C66 on sps says lsu close to flipping Josh Clarke (lb) from om. C66 says he thinks that's indication that lsu isn't feeling so good about gay

    Same guy (Donahue) predicted Jacob Phillips to flip to lsu from Oklahoma. That would be quite a pull for lsu to get both. Donahue is from bleacher report though, so who knows if he's a good source or not

    SC is mopping up the floor with us on OL recruits, which is asinine considering the disparity between the two offenses and with Key coming in. How embarrassing.

    Rosie confirmed on his show yesterday what many have been saying that LSU is chasing a lot of linebackers for couple of spots. I think we will get Willie anyway but hopefully they will get a commit or 2 soon and lessen the anxiety.

    Those guys aren't gonna be satisfied until LSU leads for Gay.

    According to scout we are currently no. 26 in the recruiting ranks. Noticed they

    show 0 special teams players. Not sure why Tucker Day isn't counted there. I was hoping that with the Rebs being stymied that we might be able to finish in the top 20 but not sure that's going to happen. If we don't get Gay no way it happens.

    We are not taking advantage of the situation. Need to finish strong.
