Fournette still in LA

Submitted by Mr. Rager on

I don't know how the title of the other thread was ever changed to "Fournette Visit Happening" because he is still at home in Louisiana, but still "may be" visiting UofM this weekend.

This is per Tim Sullivan of Rivals in The Fort message board.

One of the coaches need to hop on a plane this weekend and take the Fournette's a plate of hot BBQ. Food sends a big message in Louisiana.

I should probably mention here, since most probably don't know it, of the animosity btw the Michigan heads and Les Miles that started back in early 2000s, and how he supposedly was spreading rumors that Carr had onset of Alzheimers, in order to secure the local Lousiana player Jai Eugene... Bo and Lloyd had a major falling out with Miles because of it... and its been said in inner circles that this was the catalyst to start the recruiting dip on Carr's last few years, because it spread among all the elite recruits, and its also been argued that this helped lead to RR.

I should also mention something true but less apparent, that Brandon was referring to Miles when he inferred certain coaches will coach here over his dead body.

Well, coincidences are funny things....    Fournette is supposedly the top La recruit to come out in a decade, and figure how hard Miles wants to keep him instate....   the odds alone speak about the possibility of foul play here.

I know what youre referring to... but I cannot imagine that Miles wouldn't have been fired for that far earlier it were true....  and the only proof in the public realm is the person while in a drunk stupor, rambling, and mentioning it, to which, could have easily been paranoia.  Think about the insubordination and/or nerve it would take for Miles to do and/or overcome the fear of doing so.
