Should we tell this guy to get lost??

That's good to hear
and I hope we keep him. But why in the world would he say that LSU is his "dream school" if he is truly commited to us?

Well, the 'shoe' fits. Really makes sense to 'run off' the one commit that has the ability to step in and start immediately .. at the position with the most 'need' for next year.
Answer this honestly, if you're able to do so
Do you think that was a smart thing for him to say in an interview? Didnt Dan himself say something a while back about having an issue with "committed" players taking other visits? Maybe not verbatim, but he made it clear he was not a fan of it. I cant imagine that he's fan another school in our own division being referred to as a "dream school" by someone commited to us.

He also said Dan was like a dad to him and said they have a great relationship. Remember last year when we were playing LSU and they talked about JRob, Dak, and Day being from Louisiana and wanting to play for LSU but getting passed up?
I don't think it matters at all. Obviously the only people that it bothers are the basement dwellers. If LSU offers, he's gone. He grew up an LSU fan. End of discussion. If you want us to only recruit kids that are "true maroon", we'd be relegated to D III. Also, local rags and recruitnik writers will goad kids into saying things that will appeal to their audience. It's what they do.
Kylin Hill of Columbus tweeted: "A offer from FLORIDA & LSU would mean the most to me"
Someone needs to let Dan know this so he can inform the staff to leave this kid alone!! It doesn't matter that is one of the best in the state for class of 17.*****
And UT was Pat Willis' "dream school." LSU and UT may not even offer if they...
fill up. Even if they do offer, recruits often stick with their original commit feeling they are more desired/needed there.

Shows that he must be a good player. I can understand the hometown thing with LSU, but it bothers me that he's also enamored with looking at Tennessee. But I certainly don't think we should tell him to "get lost".
I remember Dan once saying he'd pull a kid's offer if he took any visits to other schools while committed to us. But apparently he's quietly backed off that one.

When did Dan say that? I've heard him say "if you're still looking, we're still looking." But he has never said he would pull an offer. Do you hang out with a lot of posters from the OM Spirit board? That sounds like something that would come from there.
What's this kids
fascination w UF? Yeah they're better this year, but they've sucked since this kid probably started playing football for his school.

Nope.... I'm only on Gene's page and this one. Your quote above is exactly what Dan said. It means if you are looking, then we are looking for someone else to take your spot. And if we find someone else, then your spot will or may be gone. That's the same thing as saying your offer is not firm anymore as long as you are looking around. You are just WAY too sensitive!
Sensitive? If you say so. What you posted above, and seem to understand is not the same as telling a recruit that if you go on a visit to another school, we well pull your offer. Like it's a matter of fact. It has nothing to do with sensitivity. Has to do with being wrong.
If Dan did say that he would pull an offer if a kid wants to visit another school then I think he should. The word commitment should mean what it stands for. Two can play that game.
You've gotta take
into the account the state of the original poster, who lives and dies by the words of 16-18 year old, males.

No, we shouldn't tell him to get lost, but
I don't think any of us would mind if you got lost/

My dream wife is not the woman I am married to. Does that mean I need to tell her to "get lost"?
