I think I saw their insider say that Allen’s uncle was retained as a coach on the TCU staff and that’s the deal there. I guess Matthews is just a miss.we're kinda resigned to the fact we aren't getting Mathews or Perk. Overall we feel good about the class but THEE biggest negative so far, and this is being too **** demanding for immediate ROI, is our WR room and Keary Colbert recruiting. Losing Bond (decommitted before CBN was hired) hurt and then letting Gibson walk hurt too. DJ Allen woulda been a tough pull but losing him to TCU hurt. Caleb Douglas would be a nice get but he's not going to contribute as a freshmen. I'm not sure if we've went ahead and offered KD Hutchingson, but he'd be a nice (undersized) speedy slot WR.
Citizen would be our biggest get today but even then, he's a plus 1 because we kinda don't need RB's this cycle since we got Etienne and Johnson coming in.
Who knows with Perkins at this point. Sounds like they set up a good financial deal but you’re up against others with $ in LSU and aTm. We were told that aTm’s money is insane right now btw. I think it was said on our board by an insider that we can’t match what Shemar Stewart is getting from them and for him to choose us means he’s leaving $$$ on the table.
