00:00Corey Raymond is on a hot streak.
00:02So the word is, and a lot of this is coming from first from LSU insiders,
00:08and some of the national insiders are starting to come around on this as well.
00:12The word is that as soon as LSU secured a yes from DJ Pickett, which we now
00:18believe happened about two days before he announced, so around Monday, as soon
00:22as they got that yes from Pickett, LSU started to really shift their focus and
00:26shift their love right back over to Jabari Antoine, that they want to lock
00:32up another elite corner to play with the elite corner in Pickett that they just
00:36landed.
00:36And I would guess, cause we know alphas tend to gravitate towards alphas.
00:40Maybe Antoine has some desire to play together with DJ Pickett.
00:44LSU, of course, historically known as DBU.
00:47They're putting the band back together there.
00:49So, and maybe by the way, if LSU had not been making Antoine feel the love for a
00:54while, that might be the reason why he decommitted from LSU in late June and why
00:59they're trying to secure that back.
01:01And obviously he is a new Iberia, Louisiana native, which is right in LSU's
01:06backyard.
01:07So again, and as we've learned in recruiting, it can be good.
01:12Sometimes it can be bad.
01:14These trends can shift within a matter of days or a matter of hours, but telling you
01:18about, you know, 36 or so hours before Jabari Antoine announces his verbal
01:24commitment, most of the buzz is now back in the trends back in LSU's favor.
01:28So we'll, we'll see if Miami can change that narrative, but this could end up being
01:33a really, really, really good week at DB for LSU.
01:36And, you know, a very disappointing week for Miami, given the standards that have
01:40been set.
