  • Finally can tell my aggy story.    Have a good insight into this kids recruitment and I’m still laughing about his visit to aggy. Dude gets his player host (I’ll let y’all find who that is) and

    He could have if he isn't. Play devil's advocate and tell us why you feel about this guy's overall approach to his recruitment and how that either translates to the next level or doesn't matter.

Yes, I remember they revived him on the field.  I think it might have even been his parents, both Drs if I remember correctly, that did it with an AED machine.

Yes, his mother is Barbara Bergen, I forgot his dad's name. I worked for her practice when I first moved to Austin in 1992. I knew Matt when he was in elementary school. Great family. They bought a little farm out by Muldoon that they would invite us to.

Where I sit with LSU and 5-star DL Dominick McKinley

Sonny Shipp (LSU 247)
 

Today marked eight days out from 5-star DL Dominick McKinley's announcement that is set for Friday, Sept. 1.

The lone uncommitted prospect inside the top 10 for Louisiana’s 2024 class has coaching staffs at Ohio State, Texas A&M, Texas, Oklahoma, and LSU working overtime as the clock ticks down.

The lines of communication between LSU and McKinley’s camp, primarily his mom, dad and uncle, remain open and things have trended in more of a positive direction over the last 10 days or so. I still feel LSU has ground to make up, but I am not sure who is sitting in that pole position.

Ohio State defensive line coach Larry Johnson has been the lead recruiter for the Buckeyes from the start. We heard former LSU product Rashard Lawrence rave about Johnson when he came out of Neville and many discounted the Buckeyes back then. The same thing happened with McKinley, but the Buckeyes are definitely a legitimate threat.

Guarded optimism is how I would label some sentiment on the OSU side. The Texas sentiment coming from some who have picks in on the Longhorns remains positive about their chances. TJ Lindsey’s commitment to Auburn made McKinley an even higher priority for the Longhorns, and we know they have a huge pool of NIL resources to fall back on.

Texas A&M and Oklahoma have not been mentioned as much, but I think the Aggies are the bigger threat of the two.

If I had to put in a pick right now, I’m not sure who it would go to. I do know it would not go to the home team at this stage and on the current terms.

While I feel LSU has made up some ground since the Bayou Splash and the medical event that followed with Jimmy Lindsey, there is still more work for Frank Wilson and co. that lies ahead over the next week.

LSU has already expressed the need to add one of the country’s best defensive linemen to the roster and how he fit. The staff has shown him and his brother the benefits of staying inside the state and the path to the NFL.

Now, LSU has to use these next eight days to show its entire benefits package – on the field, in the classroom, NIL opportunities, etc. – in this current environment of college football is at least on par with the one that matters the most.

I edited immediately after posting, you posted like 3 hours later, and the edit made it into your quoted text.

In summation, take a lap.

When someone asks for a doctor at a Westlake game, the crowd responds “What kind?”

Then there’s always a guy asking if they need a lawyer too.

This duck on duck violence has gone on long enough. Whether you're a Duck of Death or a Duck of the Risen Perspirer, birds of a feather need to stick together.

I don’t think he had a committable offer.

I’m pretty sure Justin Tucker’s (who was Westlake’s kicker at the time) dad (a cardiologist) came out of the stands and used the defibrillator that shocked his heart back into rhythm.

Isn’t “family over everything” what aggy tried to use as their recruiting phrase?

I thought that was their motto when choosing mates. Before you correct me about the sheep, those are just for their pleasure, not procreation.

Just to clarify Matt Nader’s parents live in Rollingwood - Paul Nader is a nephrologist and Barbara Bergin is an orthopedic surgeon - those two, his parents performed CPR, until Justin Tucker’s dad, Paul, a cardiologist, took over and used the defibrillator.

Anyone who chooses to live in Norman, Oklahoma over Austin is indeed committable.

North of Beaumont.  It’s a real shithole.  That part of Texas has more in common with Louisiana.

I know Peyton is supposed to be a dude, but I just can't bring myself to be give a shit about either one of these guys. I feel like OU is doomed to go through a down cycle for the foreseeable future.

I’m happy to have you explain your joke to me, and how it relates to the Bowen Bros (or even the Mannings). Sorry, I must be a little slow on the uptake this morning.
