Local gumps say Randle's brother is pulling a fast one. His brother put something on his facebook about a decision being made and it would upset Tiger fans. Gumps say its BS, none of the coaches expect RR anywhere but LSU.
:geaux: Sounds like he's living the process through his brother and "having fun" 'till the last possible minute.:rolleye33: I'll be glad when Wednesday night comes and all these "games" will be over and done with!:hihi: :LSU231:
It is down to LSU and OU for his signature. Stoops had a great in-home visit with him last week as did the LSU assistants and I fully expect him to be a Tiger.
You have any idea if there's anything between Randles dad and Miles? Alabama coaches have told confidants there was some minor friction between him and Les and its why Henson took a larger role in RR's recruitment.
My 2 Bastrop sources have never mentioned any friction between them and I know they would have told me something like that. I do know they have told me on more than one occasion that Randle's mom loves Miles and sees him as someone who could be a father-like figure. Plus, head coaches are more limited in face to face recruiting. Miles would not be someone you would see at the forefront of any specific recruit. Assistant coaches are allowed more personal visits and head coaches intervene every chance they get in person but most of this is done on campus visits and phone conversations. So it doesn't really make since from that standpoint.
Bama insiders saying they're getting a big surprise on NSD. I haven't heard enough on RR to say hes 100% LSU at this point. Not saying hes going to Bama but it wouldn't shock me if he picked OU.
