Also people showing clips of BK yelling at a player so what big deal. Coaches yell at players that’s normal, recruits don’t care if someone screams. It’s about a relationship that’s strong between him and Corey. He doesn’t give af who the HC is, it’s that relationship that’s winning out right now. It can change but doesn’t seem likely for now

No. 1 Cornerback in America, LSU Commit DJ Pickett Shares Update on Recruitment

Zephyrhills (Fla.) five-star cornerback DJ Pickett sent shockwaves across the college football recruiting scene after revealing a commitment to the LSU Tigers b

PIckett has several ties to the Hurricanes. He's a Sunshine State native with a cousin currently on the roster in Coral Gables.

This fall, Pickett has been on campus several times to check in with Miami, but it hasn't wavered his commitment to the Bayou Bengals.

Despite remaining active on the recruiting scene, Pickett continues vocalizing his pledge to Kelly and Co.
On Sunday, he once again provided insight on where his recruitment stands with the purple and gold after posting via social media a countdown until he enrolls at LSU.

Pickett plans to put pen to paper in December during the Early Signing Period before enrolling early and taking his talents to Baton Rouge.

We've seen outside chatter surrounding his recruitment over the last few months with the Hurricanes "gaining traction" on the trail, but Pickett continues doubling down on where he stands.

The five-star prospect wants to play for LSU secondary coach Corey Raymond. He's been adamant about that during his process and hasn't given an indication that has changed.

“I wish [Oregon and Miami] the best, but I’m at LSU now,” Pickett said after announcing his decision in July. “If you are a DB, and Coach Raymond is at LSU, I feel that’s the right place to be at. That tells you everything right there.”

"Just the Corey Raymond factor. And it’s Defensive Back U. DBU. That’s a big factor for LSU.," Pickett's father told On3Sports. "The fact they have developed so many DBs. Coach Raymond developed so many DBs at the school. The recruiting is in the pudding. There are so many greats that played at LSU. I’d say history as far as LSU.”

So all this is from July?

Keep throwing money at this kid lol. Give him 50% of the Jeremiah Smith offer. Long way to go till he signs.
 
If he doesn’t go to LSU, then I like our chances. I had read they were his team growing up.

I AM NO INSIDER

I always thought this recruitment was a “go get your money kid, as much as you can, drive the price up as high as possible, and we will be here to pay you in the end”. His last name is Pickett for ***** sake.
 
Everyone was saying he’s waiting to see us win. Well we’re 8-0 and a top 5 team in the country. Beat Florida State beat UF and everyone on the schedule. LSU has two losses already. So he’s coming??

@Cribby says his recruitment will come down to signing day but I just don’t see it with us and him. Maybe he just moves in silence and doesn’t talk very much.
 
I have no idea why it's taken me so long to do this, but anytime this thread is bumped, I will have to assume a couple of things to save me the disappointment:

1) There’s no new info
2) No one knows anything
3) DJ ain't coming (no diddy)

The pull at the end will be strong. Stay home, play with Booker and Canon, be with your family etc

You already know this but just saying at least we are winning which might not matter but it can only help

Win and they will come takes more than 8 wins. Wins don’t automatically mean better class. Most teams after winning championships see the recruiting bump the next year.

Miami sucked the first two years Mario was here. 8-0 doesn’t change what these kids have seen for their whole life.

Miami needs to win constantly, maybe win the conference for the 1st **** time might be a good start.
