I'm probably wrong, but that didn't read like a typical Steve article about an uncommitted guy. It read like a "well if you're wavering, we're about to full Court press our Option B, and he may become our 1 RB for '19." Thoughts? Try to force the issue a bit without the coaches having to really say it?
The entire thing feels weird for sure.

I'm gonna say no though because the LSU side is reporting the same and Steve has even alluded to local pressure and booster involvement. So I think Steve is reporting the truth.

However, something isn't adding up and the entire episode has a calculated feel.
