We are far from "scrambling" to get WR talent. We'll be just fine even if we don't get Sullivan or McInnis.Quote:

He hasn't set a set date yet. And it looks good. Very good
If we wanted McInnis we would have talent him..
Even if we miss out on Sullivan, still will get AJ and probably Couch..
Much rather give that scholly to a big guy up front...
I agree with giving it to a proven big guy up frontQuote:

Sullivan set to announce Saturday at 5.
Thanks, but he gone.Quote:

He's been a TCU lean for a while now.Quote:

Probably Ole Miss
All say LSU now. Ha, Sullivan's recruitment is a prime example of how nobody really knows a damn thing. In the last 3 weeks this kid was "down to LSU, TCU, MSU", then "LSU is out, it's btwn MSU & TCU", then "Looks like he's going to MSU!, he has informed our staff", then "things have changed, he may want to be closer to Mom & Dad in Texas", then "He's TCU bound..it's a lock. Been leaning that way all along*", NOW...."He will likely be choosing LSU in 2 hours".Quote:

I know "things change", but no damn way this kid changed his mind 3 times in 2 weeks. This was simply a case of multiple people in the recruiting circles wanting to be the 1st, & taking a "I think he's leaning here" and running with it. Recruiting is so laughable, but it's like a train wreck...I can't turn away. ("train wreck" just turned out to be fitting in more ways than I intended for us MSU fans*)
What's the latest on Simmons Derrick brown etc
Derrick - less than 1%Quote:

If we could somehow pull those bottom 4 along with lashley, I'd feel much betterQuote:

I think we get brown, Kobe, Lashley, and 1 out of the other two.Quote:

I agree. Got to get one of knott and Simmons in addition to Kobe, aj, and lashleyQuote:

Really? You think who wins the national title will determine who gets these two. That's just silly.Quote:

I don't feel good about Simmons and OM will make a push for AJ, hope we are ready for that. Lashley and Jones, I thought were locks. Our recruiting us so pitiful.
It's looking more and more likely that Willie Allen will have a landing spot at LSU, which may take him off the board for us.
LSU also looks to be the leader for Devin White a kid that Arkansas thought they had.
LSU will not be denied this recruiiting season.
I think LSU is the easiest place in the country to recruit football players. Bama may top them lately but it's because of Saban.Quote:

Buckley is listed as the primary recruiter from UL for Simmons, so if he joined the staff that would help. I wish we would show more urgency in finding a replacement.Quote:

A lot of coaches won't change (except the coaches joining staffs of new head coaches) until after their bowl games. And Dan has nearly always waited until after the coaches convention as well.Quote:
