Richardson showed up after taking his ACT, driving 260 miles and showing up in the middle of the 2nd quarter. That's devotion. LSU/Bama now 50/50. We're in it to win it. Shepard tips him over to our side.
I was gonna say, he mentioned wanting to hang out with Shep in two weeks, thats going to be big, I feel pretty good about it.
“I got to the game in the third quarter because I had to take the ACT first,” Richardson informed. “I got there late so I didn’t get to talk to many recruits, but I did talk to Christine Michael. “I liked talking to him because we both play the same position,” Richardson continued. “It would be cool if we played on the same team because you’d have the #2 and the #4 ranked running backs in the same back field at the same time.”
I won't get my hopes up.. but dear God that would be a pickup. islstl you really think he's 50/50? I've been reading TOS to much I think :wave:
The entire Christine Micheal is the most convincing argument to support this. It definitely appears we feel really good about Richardson. And for him to make that kinda commitment to come see us is speaking volumes (showing up in 3rd quarter). If it's not 50/50, it's headed in that direction and quick. LSU/Bama game could be big.
No one really knows but the coaches, the kid could be a silent commit and we wouldnt know anything until it was officially announced, right now though it seems like he's not as much of a bama lock as some people thought
Spoke with TR's brother today - wearing my LSU stuff in Best Buy and he called me over. He's a big LSU fan. He said Trent is very much still looking around, but likes Bama. Had very nice things to say about the LSU coaches. He said the 3 losses won't help because Trent has played for a mediocre team his entire high school career and is ready to start winning. He didn't know what Trent was going to do, but thought LSU was still very much in the mix and didn't seem to think that Ford or Pratt were factors in the decision at all. Nice guy. He would've talked for a lot longer if I had time.
Id love to add Trent Richardson but i feel we dont need him but it would be great stealing him from Bama
