NSD 2022 National Signing Day

[CAJUNJUDO]

I remember a 3-star linebacker (forgot his name) from Baton Rouge had committed to the Cajuns and did the same thing by taking a PWO to LaSt on signing day. This was in the early 2000s. He would have received so much attention if he signed with us as highly rated players were few and far between. He was buried on the depth chart over there and played very little in their meaningless games. I wonder how he feels about that decision now. He ended up being a glorified practice dummy.

He chose a talent graveyard.

Don't think so as Bates has played in the NFL and didn't attend aliceshoe

Signed with LSU and transferred to Indiana.

My bad, depending on 247 was a mistake

Probably because he took a preferred walk-on with them, but signed in a ceremony. He visited here again for a Spring Game when he left LSU before choosing to enroll at Indiana. His dad was a turd.

Bates signed with Illinois then transferred to Latech

Okay, That's what it was! LSU offered him a preferred walk-on and he signed with Illinois. When he wanted to transfer back he visited here for the spring game. His dad didn't want him to play at UL.

Didn't he have a girlfriend or something at UL but his dad didn't want him to come here so he keep bouncing around. Seems toxic. Hope the dudes ok but glad we only witnessed it from a distance.

Yes, that was the reason he visited. Buy his dad was adamant he not play at UL.
