Committed today per twitter.
Yea Rod Walker kind of ruined his moment. He was going to announce tonight on Twitter. Huge pickup nonetheless.
Huge pick up.
Great to already have him in the boat. Every class needs a leader to commit early and help the coaches out. Looks like we found ours.

Big pull for us with an impressive offer list
Oh hell yeah!! Great news!
Really good get. Has been a main target for a while.
Huge pickup and ALWAYS great to get your Qb on board early... to help with all the other commits.
This was expected but you can't underestimate how big this commit is. Dan finally has his Tebow to show to QB's with Dak. This should be the norm now with our QB recruiting.
His highlights for anybody who haven't seen him.

This guy will dominate in our system. Wish he was this year! One more season of high school football will do him well with his mechanics. Great get! Let's rally with this momemtum
Huge pickup. Perfect for our system.
Huge pickup for a few reasons:
1. As we've seen at LSU and Georgia, QB play is the life blood of your program. Quality QB play almost guarantees 6-7 wins. Getting Thompson on board is a wonderful down payment to insure the future of this program. He was Mullen's guy and, after seeing what type of QBs Mullen's guy becomes(Dak, Dobbs, Tebow, Cam) I trust Mullen's guy is really good.
2. MS is loaded in 2017 and LSU has instability. Getting Thompson on board to be the leader of that class, both to draw MS players and Louisiana players, is immeasurable. You always want to get your QB early and our staff did that, without having to hire his brother.
Wonder if he is close with Willie Allen... Different schools but same area around New Orleans
If so would be great to get in his ear ..
So that is 2 Louisiana QBs that LSU has whiffed on in the 2017 class.
Yep going all in for Narcisse cost them with Keytaon. They were all at their summer camp (Felipe Frank's, Keytaon, Narcisse, & their 2018 QB commit Dinkelman) & lets just say LSU were all over the other 3 guys & barely spoke to Keytaon. He never forgot that & now you see the results. He didn't even list them in his final 5.
He's working on graduating early too
We are at a unprecedented level of QB talent at MSU. Never has our QB talent been this good.
Are we going have anyone to block for him?
