    IMO, if Christine waits to announce during his Sr season he'll get an LSU offer & be a Tiger.

    If he commits before the season, it will be to A&M.

    Good point, especially since he didn't come to our camp. It seems like we would want to see more of him if possible. It seems like we are filling up very quickly after our national title. I guess the catch is that if he waits too long into the season will we still have room for him? I guess that depends on who we get in the meantime and who is left on the board that we feel good about landing.

    That flies in the face of your adamant stance that LSU will NOT offer Christine because we are only willing to take Richardson as our 3rd RB option. You have been "Richardson or bust" up until this post.

    Glad to see you coming over to our side.

    I've been adamant that at this point, it is Richardson or bust. However, if Michael holds off on committing until his senior season, he could earn a committable offer.

    Man you and islstl are sure hard up for another back:yelwink2:. I cant speak for CParso but this is my opinion on the situation and I think its similar to what he may be getting at. Richardson and Michael are both great prospects, no doubt about it. We have two very good backs commited right now. With three backs coming back for two and three seasons of football. So LSU is set at TB for a while. Its not a need. With only Ridley, FB is more of a need. Hence Singleton.

    Now then, Richardson and Michael may be in the class down the road because of the following. In time the coaches will have a better feel of who will and wont be in the class. So they may take another back because they are the best available player. I wouldnt mind either, but I much rather have another LB, DE, OL, or even WR than another RB. Each of those is more of a position of need than RB.
