Darkest Before Dawn?
Optimism Warning!!!
-Mops apparently has good news about Masoli.
-Seastrunk's announcing tomorrow. Between the rumors and his mom's comments he could VERY easily be rockin shoulderfeathers by tomorrow afternoon.
-Sounds like we're gonna get a great safety in Erick Dargan.
-In the "it's not over until the fat lady sings" category...
-Werner, Hemschoot, Akuna, Shirley all still have yet to announce
-to my knowledge we still don't have any confirmation one way or another on Potoae (nothing being said could be interpreted a million different ways).
-Heimuli is still being recruited
-As several have pointed out, we routinely bring in under-the-radar guys that impress us at our summer camps, so we could still have some sleepers on our radar, and, at least according to rivals and espn, we're connected to alot of mid-level 3*ish DTs...
While I'm as depressed as everyone else about getting repeatedly kicked in the Duck Junk by DLmen, things COULD turn around in a hurry here!

Re: Darkest Before Dawn?
The recruiting process has been a nightmare- that is why I am ready for it to be over with. Lache has made his choice- the best choice for him- not for family but, for him. He is a great young man and will do great!Quackles wrote:What were his mom's comments?

Re: Darkest Before Dawn?
has Potoae ever visited? Until he does it seems unlikely that we are a serious option. SC on the other hand...

Laches Mom also directly posted that LSU fans would not be happy with the decision, in response to a LSU fans question
..I dont think LSU was the choice...

Not to pick nits... but 1- it's his aunt. and 2- nowhere on there did she say that LSU fans would not be happy w/ the decision.swanriver wrote:Laches Mom also directly posted that LSU fans would not be happy with the decision, in response to a LSU fans question

I feel good about Lache and think/hope we'll have some good news in a little over 17 hours, but other than that one comment - which she reiterated meant only that he made his decision for himself and not anyone else - she did not provide any clues as to what Strunk has decided...
Keep your fingers crossed.

Re: Darkest Before Dawn?
go back and carefully read the thread and you will see precisely where she directly responded to a poster question
and stated LSU fans would not be happy..its there..she even added a
face in the answer..also not to nitpick, just to correct
in any case..Id be more concerned about Baylor than LSU

I take that to mean that even if she did she wouldn't tell.
If you're looking at something else post the quote, or at least the page, but that's the closest thing I can find to what you're suggesting, and it says nothing about how LSU fans will feel.

Re: Darkest Before Dawn?
Right. Given the fact that she's friendly and familiar with those posters and that board, I doubt she'd drop a smiley face to "will we be excited". AND the fact that the "will we be excited" was asked 6 or 7 posts before her answer of "no...swanriver wrote:Breaux Bridge

I suppose you could be right, but it seems more likely that her answer was to the "do you know what his decision is" than the other.
Guess we'll find out tomorrow either way.

Glazeduck is right. I read the whole thread. She was responding to a poster who asked here if she knew where he was going. She responded with No...

Good point, thanks for pointing that out. Was posted before I actually read the entire thread myself.damascusduck wrote:You said in your first post it was his Mom....No big deal.

I would love to be wrong on this, but his fiance's choice of school still screams flags to me. Gut instinct is LSU. Guess in 14ish hours we will know.

Re: Darkest Before Dawn?
The fact the kid has a fiance screams red flags I got engaged early I thought my senior year of college. This is pathetic, he will severely regret making choices based on being engaged at age 18. Im telling myself we lose out so if he does flash the O tomorrow it will be a nice suprise instead of a major letdown. Cant take the same beating I took with Boyd and Brown from last year.
