'17 MS RB Cam Akers (FSU commit 12/27)

[Bassmaster_Vol]

What do you mean? We already have Coleman as a commit for 2017 & now Chandler so we have two RB commits for 2017.

If Coleman gets that LSU offer he's gone imo

That will be fine with me if we can switch Cam Akers out for Coleman. That would be a fair trade wouldn't it? LOL!

Aww man, That's terrible because he's only good if he picks up an LSU offer, right?

I think Coleman is very underrated. But judging from his own comments he seems like he's hoping for that LSU offer

Where are these comments? Just sayin if its out there not smart when you are committed to another school.

Brice and Callahan talked during their FB live segment tonight about the potential impact of Chandler's commit on Akers. Both seemed to think that it would be a positive in relation to Akers' decision, without coming out and explicitly saying it. Specifically, they indicated that the staff was using the Hurd/Kamara pitch to Cam for him and Chandler, and that it was a positive pitch.

That's exactly how it should be pitched to Cam Akers too.

I'd STILL like to see this kid in Orange...hope Butch can pull him in...

Kiss my grass!

Haha. Glad you took the post as intended. 😁😉

If we get Akers, I hope we hold onto Coleman. After Hurd and Kamara leave we will only have two scholarship RBs. It wouldn't hurt to take three in this class.

Has it been confirmed if Jeremy Lewis is on scholarship or not?

How can that be? VN told me otherwise, and that source of information is always solid.

I would rather add a guy like Felix.

Felix would definitely add an element to our offense. Coleman seems to be more of a power back though. Very different styles. I'd be happy with adding either one!

While I do agree with you there glich we would rather have a 5* back in Akers if we can get him instead of Felix? Don't you agree? Thanks!

If Cam wants in I'd take him over Felix. Butch may have a different take but that is why he is the coach.

The kid has publicly said an LSU offer and he's gone. IMO he should have been shown the door 45 seconds after making the comment. I like other backs better. I wouldn't have taken a LA back so early.

Where did he say that?

I wished both him & Trey Smith would hurry the heck up. More blue font!

It was a while back. Posted in an article on here and was quite the uproar at the time.

Here was one of the quotes.

He’ll always be a Tigers fan: “I grew up an LSU fan. Born an LSU fan. I love LSU. [I’ll] still go to their games next year. I’ll always be an LSU fan regardless, but I just got to make the best decision for me. A lot of people are like, ‘You should’ve went to LSU.’ But LSU ain’t show up yet, so.”

So he didn't at all publicly say "an LSU offer and I'm gone" like you claimed. Cool. Thanks.
