Either 1) he lied about Michigan or 2) he has a screw loose. NOBODY would turn down a trip like that and commit to LT, especially if he has no ties to LT and said all along that he wanted to stay in the region by going to SMU. At least take the trip first.

So, what is it:

1) He lied about Michigan, possibly the ole Miss offer, and maybe even SMU
or
2) He's nuts.
or
3) He is afraid to fly, which can't be the case because LT has to fly to all of their games, not in a regional conference.

Any votes?

And I am going to go with Option 2 of the poll...Danna was originally scheduled for Ole Miss this weekend, cancels to go to Michigan and then cancels that to committ to La Tech? Either he is nuts or his coach is (considering it is the coach that has been giving all the updates)

Maybe La Tech made the best financial offer.

If he chose La Tech over any of those schools, he is too stupid to play quarterback.

If he is that stupid, I guarantee we didn't offer him, because his classes wouldn't transfer ;).

Seriously though, I don't mean to rip the kid. He is a kid after all. It just all sounds fishy...

some of you have very short memories-two of probably the 3 greatest players in Louisiana Tech history were fumbled right through SMU's recruiting fingers when Josh McCown's brother chose Tech over SMU and RB Ryan Moats' offer from SMU was delayed by the admission office and he chose Tech. SMU loses players to Louisiana Tech all the time-and some of you are just noticing it for the first time.

Stallion, not paying attention, the question is why does a kid that allegedly has offers from Mich. and Ole Miss suddenly commit to LT without even taking his trips??? And would not you agree that Moats would have gone here except for the offer screwup?
Go Ponies!!

stallion forgets we won five games this year with what he thinks are a bunch of players nobody wanted. Maybe our coaches know talent. Again, quit listening to his nonsense.

IMO, if a JuCo player gets an offer from Michigan, then cancels that visit to commit to LaTech, then somebody's Momma is driving a new '300'.

lets hope he realizes that he will sit on the bench for his last two years of college and freeze his [deleted] off watching chad henne set numerous records..
Yes I am being very "half is half full" but why would you go to juco and go somewhere where they have an established qb, not to mention their history of NFL QB's Drew Henson, Tom Brady, Jim Harbaugh, Elvis Grbac, shall I go on, you go to juco for several reasons and none of them are to go to college and sit on the bench.. unless its your childhood dream to play for a certain big school..
