It's still one they had to pay for. The question is, why do that this close to signing day if he has no interest in going there? Like others, I think it's a valid question.
As I stated he made a promise to Coach O, he simply kept it.

It was always his plan not to sign till February. People just like to create doubt.
He promised Coach O he and his family would fork over their own money to make a second trip all the way to Baton Rouge? Color me skeptical. But I guess we'll see next Wednesday.As I stated he made a promise to Coach O, he simply kept it.
If that was always the plan, why was everyone surprised when he didn't sign early. Only heard that AFTER he didn't sign early.
Nobody is calling anyone stupid but the people acting batshit crazy because he is supposedly thinking about something that hasn't happened yet and ain't gonna happen is crazy... What about the egg on those people's faces when he signs...

Eric Kimrey confirmed that and said even he didn't know anything for sure from Burch until after the ESD.If that was always the plan, why was everyone surprised when he didn't sign early. Only heard that AFTER he didn't sign early.

That's exactly what he said on 107.5. Burch and his family have kept everything extremely close to the vest throughout the entire process.Not what I heard
I may have misheard that one. My fault.That's exactly what he said on 107.5. Burch and his family have kept everything extremely close to the vest throughout the entire process.
I get it. The speculation's killing everyone. But as I mentioned, info from his coach's mouth is hardly misinformation.I may have misheard that one. My fault.
Anyway I am done with thread. He signs here great if not, best of luck to him.
My point has been this, a lot of misinformation and unnecessary speculation. There is a ton of good info out there. Some need to go find it instead of parroting a bunch of nothing.
I was kind of thinking it would be the other way around. Except it would maybe look worse for Muschamp in particular than USC as a whole. This very well could be his last go 'round here and he's hung his hat on being a great recruiter. Even that's up for debate, considering we're pretty much where we've always been for the last decade plus in recruiting rankings.
BUT as bad as we've been the past couple of years, he's still managed to land some good recruits. And he's also convinced enough people that we wouldn't have gotten them if we didn't have him.
So if his prize recruit punks him on Signing Day, it would damage the only remaining credibility he has left, since the question of his coaching ability has pretty much been answered.
It would look bad all the way around. He would have screwed us over by waiting until too late for us to make other adjustments. But you are right that part would be forgotten quickly. Nobody expects recruits to behave with integrity.
For us it would look bad that we could not hold onto a verbal commit from our own backyard. And it sets up perfectly with us playing LSU next year. Would definitely be the story line heading into the game if Burch emerged as a strong player for them.
Link to confirmation?
Wes was on Heath's show just now and I caught a little before I had to get out of the car. Sounds like we have a visit to him and his official left. If we cannot nail him down after this weekend, he has apparently been leaning LSU all along. Wes said it was very close between LSU and us on early signing day. In fairness to the kid, he's apparently had Muschamp and mom putting active and passive pressure on him for years now to stay home. I could understand him releasing the pressure valve a few weeks ago but still wanting to give LSU a last look. Your actions speak louder than your words. He really has not spoken yet.
You're a paid member here so take two minutes and read one of the numerous threads on the insider's forum.
Perhaps you should spend less time stirring the pot here and more time reading what is posted before spreading so much misinformation.
so still no proof, huh?
Insiders forum = unsubstantiated rumors
you still cannot provide a single solitary piece of information to support your position
My goodness the usual suspects, losers and imposters here on our forum, the FGF, have gone all in on hoping Burch flips to LSU. PATHETIC.
Gonna be some trashy imposters and usual suspects with egg on their face if Burch signs with Carolina. Just pathetic some of the crap allowed to be posted here.
Good post except I disagree with one thing. He did speak very clearly with his commitment video. Did you see it?
If it were not for that commitment video, I wouldn't think too much about it if he flipped as he wouldn't be the first one to flip nor the last.
But the ENTIRE theme of his commitment video was the word COMMITMENT. If you haven't seen it, you need to look it up and watch it.
So yes, I would feel, at the least, like he made a really poor decision of how to do his commitment video if he had any inclination that he would switch.
When other schools get a 5 Star commitment, it's seen as a positive and the kid usually helps recruit other kids before signing day.
When we get them, we usually have to drag them to the finish line and things get muddy along the way.

Marshawn Lloyd and Zacch Pickens?
I said "usually".
I said "usually".
But Pickens and Lloyd are the only other 2 5 star players landed by the current staff.
He's at SC today on his official. I think if he were going to flip to LSU he would have already decommitted and probably would not be at SC today. While it is still possible he could change his mind at this point it would reflect poorly on him if he were to flip Wednesday and sign with LSU. I certainly wouldn't hold that against Coach Muschamp.
Whoever posted above and said that he was just honoring a promise to Coach O is probably correct. And it does happen that way a lot.
