As long as Palardy stays true, I can handle it. If he switches, should Gran leave, I'm going to go on recruiting vacation until Feb 4th.

luc is a beast and signing day is basically two months away so we have time to change his mind. but i have the utmost confidence in coach O to snag another great LB(Jones).

He is an EE, is he not?

I think that Luc is going to FSU, 100%.

Sucks, I really thought that he was going to be a Vol.

If he isn't an EE, we still have a shot but if he is, adios.

Just who is Michael Taylor?

Also, I thought I read Luc didn't fit the Tampa 2 scheme anyway. I ain't joking either.

He isn't ideal, but you mold your defense around great players. If Luc is as good as his billing, he would have worked fine in a Tampa 2.

Micahel Taylor is a better fit though and vastly underrated in my opinion.

Unless this is some last minute knee jerk reaction, by Jimbo to take away worries by FSU Alums about recruiting, Luc is a Nole. I really don't take his comments on CGD "we are close on some difference makers" (paraphrase) to be hollow........he knew Luc was going to committ, prolly all along, just a good job by FSU mitagating the nega press for their Fans. Now they have hope of recruiting without Bobby ! Everyone in the country knew he was leaving, so how better to soften the blow, than to announce a huge recruiting haul ?

Yea watched his vids for the first time a few days ago. The kid is awesome. It actually made me feel 100% better about losing out on Luc

I'm actually happy that Luc did not commit to us. There was absolutely no way this guy was going to be as good as we have built him up to be. Al Wilson is the greatest linebacker i have ever seen play but this kid was already thought of as better then him. Hopefully Palardy is the NFL kicker that we've made him out to be too.

With this staff, at this point in the recruiting season, theres always another. See Tyler Bray. This board was in full melt down mode when Scroggins went to USC.

We did not pay Gran nearly enough. Anyone who disputes that seems pretty retarded to me. The man was getting 175k...

You need to take this up with Kiffin since Kiffin apparently isn't going to give him as much as FSU...

Losing Wilson will not hurt.

The Anthony Johnson thread says HI!

You will not get someone better than Gran without paying a lot more money. If we were going to pay more money, we should have paid it to Gran IMO.

Again, we should trust Kiffin's decision. If he doesn't believe Gran is worth the money, then we shouldn't believe he is worth it either...

No. Very funny, but he isn't. It's the name and the highlight film that has everyone so goo-goo ga-ga over him. He'll be mired in mediocrity at FSU IMO. He will be good, but not nearly as good as people are making him out to be. He's not that big of a loss, but he is a loss.

This dude told the Gators he was going there on FNL, then he came here and told the coaches here that he was coming here, now he commits to FSU.

You guys can flame all you want, but no one can nail these kids down completely. Every one of us who get information and choose to share it are susceptible to a kid changing his mind. Take the information for what it's worth which is jack spit until the ink is dry on the enrollment forms. But rip me or whoever you want to as much as it takes to get over losing Luc.

Well said. It sucks to loose Luc. He was my favorite commit to date but it is impossible to predict a 17 year old who is getting pulled 15 different ways in some cases. We are lucky to get some inside information from you guys, if we didn't, we would never even hear a thing about Luc at all and not have sweat a thing about it.

Anytime you lose a great player, it hurts. I wanted this kid here. Taylor may be great, but I wanted Luc too. Nothing to be done about it now tho. If he is an EE, then I doubt there's a chance to change his mind.
