Zeek 16,956 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 (edited) Surprised we don't have a thread on him. I will do a better job with the 2023 class of having individual threads instead of a over-stuffed main thread. He will announce his commitment at 12:45 CST Keith Niebuhr just gave Auburn a Crystal Pall prediction! His dad is an LSU legacy and works for LSU's athletic department so this would be a huge win.

Brad_ATX 13,654 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Could be a really good day for the secondary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurbis 579 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Certainly would be a good sign for the recruiting prowess of this staff if we can pull this kid from LSU. But being in Baton Rouge and being a legacy, seems like a tall hill to climb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AU normally has a problem landing kids from Auburn and Opelika high schools for that very reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of them stay home because the entire state is LSU fans since birth. And Louisiana is a little different in that you are at least an hour away unless you live in BR itself. Typically you are correct though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typically you are correct though. I agree with the stay at home comment, but what’s this about being at least an hour away if not in BR itself? Baton Rouge is not an isolated city, there are towns and communities from 5 to 30 miles away in every direction. Literally 1 to 300K residents in the greater Baton Rouge area that are not in Baton Rouge itself. I know because I’ve lived in Baton Rouge for the last 42 years.

In this case while LSU wanted him I think they automatically assumed he was going to LSU since his dad works in the athletic department, and Auburn recruited him harder. At least that is the thought from the LSU boards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
