RCRuiting: Lafayette County Quarterback Jeremy Liggins Commits to LSU

Oxford, Mississippi native, Clarion-Ledger Dandy Dozen selection, and big-bodied quarterback Jeremy Liggins committed to play football for LSU tonight. His commitment was hosted by Oxford's 102.1 (Reb Sports Radio) and was broadcast live from a very crowded Irie, every Oxonian's favorite Carribean-themed bar.
He led the Lafayette County Commodores to a 42-3 record during his last three years as their starting quarterback. He is a whopping 6'4", 290 pound dual-threat athlete. He was rumored for a long while to be a strong lean to either Mississippi State or Ole Miss, and was even seen around town in Oxford and on the Ole Miss campus wearing Ole Miss gear as recently as this past week. Just two days before National Signing Day, however, Liggins was reportedly committing to LSU, citing their quarterback depth, recent success, and opportunity to play as a freshman as his reasons.
He is a raw, athletic quarterback, but his athleticism and size alone make him worthy to work his way into a significant backup role as a freshman. There are concerns with his weight, but one must imagine that a legitimate SEC weight program could best manage his size.
Congrats, Jeremy. You broke the hearts of a lot of grownups today, which is kinda cool, I suppose.
[More to come on this if anything develops. Also, more to come on this because it's just kinda funny, right?]

I'm actually laughing
I wanna continue winning is the funniest thing I’ve heard in awhile. Hotly Toddy! But seriously let’s look at this from an 18 year old kids perspective. Can I get away from my parents? Can I go play for a top 10 team in the nation? Good luck Liggins.

At least he'll fit in with the fat LSU fans
WOOOO CORNDOGS
It might be wrong...
But I hope they tore him apart, booed him right out the door. I really don’t think he needed to announce that on the square, in front of nothing but Ole Miss faithful (and family I suppose). Like pouring salt on the wound.
This is really the core of the issue.
You get an offer to play quarterback for LSU – who I believe has less QBs on the roster right now than we do – a team that just played for the national championship and that’s not losing a lot (I don’t think) heading into next season. I completely understand making that decision. But cancel your appearance on the Square. Announcing a commitment to a rival on Rebel Radio from the Square is just shitty.
"There's no better way to say 'I'm a badass' than the thumbs up. It's so hot right now."
there were other kids that committed to other schools on rebel radio,
but this one really stung. i think it was his mannerisms…such as wearing the OM gear and publicly denouncing LSU. what a corndog.

"I've never heard of such bad taste"...
Ooh, if I just wasn’t a lady, what wouldn’t I tell that varmint!" as I said just after the war.
Present day, cannot ever see that boy playing QB at LFU. maybe in the red zone 4th and 5 against the Rebs when they are leading 49-6!!! whatever!
Were I a mature, considerate, rational adult, I'd say
Though I’m admittedly disappointed with his decision, I respect it nonetheless, as I trust it was the best decision for both Jeremy and his family. I commend him for refusing to be swayed by what was certainly a wave of relentless pressure from the community around him. Though born and raised in Oxford, he has no obligation to the University of Mississippi, and in no way did he owe Ole Miss anything out of some sentimental sense of hometown loyalty. He saw what was, in his opinion, a better opportunity to further himself in Baton Rouge, and he took it. Though the fashion in which he announced this decision was perhaps somewhat insensitive, he is merely an 18 year old kid caught up in the thrill of public attention. Insults and threats against him or his family are immature and unnecessary, and I pray Rebel fans are respectful enough to refrain from such childishness. Good luck at LSU, Jeremy.
But I’m neither mature, considerate or rational. Go fuck yourself Liggins, you fucking dickface.

I'm not done
The response on rivals message board is really pissing me off. I’d vent there, but it would be an exercise in futility.
I get why everyone is pissed, I’m not happy myself. But if I were him, I would have done the same thing. I remember when Jon Scheyer committed to Duke instead of Illinois, he did so in the library of my high school. He did so despite the coach of U of I being the brother of our high school coach. There was no backlash. And nobody asked, “why didn’t he commit in NC?”. We were excited that he was going to play for a top tier team, and potentially win a NC, which he did.
Liggens is entitled to announce his decision in his hometown, even if it is the location of another school. I hope he sucks, but I don’t fault him for not caving to local peer pressure.
by WrigleyvilleReb on Jan 30, 2012 11:24 PM EST via Android app up reply actions
Agreed.
I think a lot of the pissing, bitching, and moaning (which is what I’ve been doing the past couple of hours) is a result of the position our fan base is in right now. It seems like we keep getting bad news and shit piled on us, which keeps increasing the negativity of some people. I’m not saying that it’s a good excuse for the way some of our fans are acting right now, but I think a lot of people were looking at Liggins for either something positive about the program or something else to gripe about.
I won’t comment on the rivals board for the same reasons you won’t, but I do understand the complaining to a certain extent. That being said, Liggins committed to LSU, and I don’t intend to mention his name again after signing day until he’s suited in that god-awful yellow mustard color and playing against Ole Miss.

I know this is crazy, but I am not upset about this at all. He looks too big to be a effective qb, he will gain weight and I asked on a earlier post, does this guy have a qb brain. Not sure I ever got an answer, and I am doubting it. We need a smart qb one that can read defenses and not depend on his own ability, unless we can find a cam newton laying around somewhere.

I spend some time at Lafayette in the Spring of his freshmen year...
kid has a pretty good head on his shoulders, but not sure how QB smart, i don’t know.
Honestly, I won’t be surprised if he ends up transferring to a MS Juco after a redshirt freshman year. I don’t have any way to back it up, just seems like it’ll end up being that kind of situation, when he realizes that he 1) wasn’t actually recruited to play QB, or 2) isn’t going to get real playing time (contrary to what they told him) for a few years. Seen the kid play, and i may be wrong, but he’s not SEC ready to play QB. All im saying is that this may not be his last round on the recruiting trail.
by The Gunfather on Jan 31, 2012 7:54 AM EST up reply actions
good odds of that
no way this guy gets any real playing time for two years unless he’s Cam Newton 2.0 (and he did go to JUCO after leaving Florida so there you go)

No!!!!!
You guys are ridiculous…Ghost, you need to set things straight. Rebel Radio offered a forum and a place for all the local players to declare where they were going to play. Liggins took them up on that offer. So what if it is in Oxford, on the square. It is his HOME! For an 18-year old, announcing on a home radio show is simply a cool thing to do.
And I would have gone to LSU too. I’ll be over the top ecstatic if we win 5 games next year. LSU will compete for a championship. So what if I don’t play for a year or so. LSU has two of the most mediocre quarterbacks and competed for a championship. If Liggins cashes in on his potential, he could win a national championship as the starter.
Don’t compare the 18-year old KID to Lebron James.

Lebron made his decision at 24
So what exactly is your cutoff for comparison? He was given the option to phone in his commitment, but he decided to show up and put on a show. He could have done it at his high school like most kids. He could have done it on a radio not named Rebel Radio. He could have done so many different things, yet he choose to do it in this manner. No one forced him to do it this way. He made the decision to do it this way. He’s a fucking douche bag for it. He knows he’s a douche bag for it. He knew he was going to piss people off announcing it this way and did it anyways. He’s exactly like Lebron.
If he wanted to do it for his fans and his family, he could have done it at his house or at his school. He choose to do it on Rebel Radio at a bar kept in business by Ole Miss fans less than a mile from campus in the Square that is sustained and exists b/c of Ole Miss. Fuck him.

But after all the attention given and the way the whole thing was set up, and then he commits to a rival. The first thing to pop into my head was The Decision-on a more local/much less media attention way. A kid can make his own decisions-thats his to make. But to do it like that felt like a sucker punch straight to the gut-no matter what kind of college career he ends up having.

This is not an Atlanta kid choosing Clemson over Georgia Tech. This is not a Miami kid choosing FSU over UM. This is fucking Oxford, MS, which is synonymous with Ole Miss.
I get it that it’s his hometown too, and I am sorry he couldn’t have a “normal” event where he could choose his school and everyone be excited. But I have no sympathy for him if he was booed or jeered at.
Didn’t he play in one of these all-star games where he could have announced on national/regional television, instead of at Ole Miss?

In my body, where the shame gland should be, there is a second awesome gland. True story.

did not see that one coming
I mean I’m happy and all, but didn’t this guy just say like a week ago that he wasn’t going to LSU and wanted to stay in state? Oh well
all I ask is for the chance to prove that money can't buy happiness
Yes. But that was because LSU wouldn't PROMISE him a shot at QB originally, so he told LSU to fuck off.
Les chew the cud with some of his assistants for a couple days and decided to put the full court press on Mr Liggins. Les himself showed up at Lig’s crib, laid it on him that he would not only be given a chance to compete for the QB spot, but also that he would be the ONLY QB taken this season. That wrapped it up.
Liggins was looking to get out of Oxford/MS from the beginning. He wasn’t getting the love from out of state programs to play QB at the beginning, so he talked himself into staying with OM or MSU because he knew he’d get at least a shot to play QB with both programs. The minute an out of state program promised him a QB spot, he was gone like a fart in the wind. OM fans don’t want to admit it, but that shit is true.
Can't say I blame him.

okay so they promised him a shot at QB
but what do you think happens when he realizes that isn’t exactly what they recruited him for?
He sucks it up and deals with it.
Most recruits don’t get what is promised to them. Few ever leave the school they sign with.

Life goes on
The young man could have picked a better environment for his announcement. He did what he did. As with any young person going off to college, I wish him the best of luck.
I will still boo like the devil when he takes the field in an LSUx uniform, if he makes it that far.

May be a little late to the party but...
need I remind you of the last overweight QB to play at LSU? I’m not gonna name any names but his initials are JaMarcus Russell. Maybe we just dodged a bullet? But if this kid gets any bigger there’s no way he would have been able to run Freeze’s offense. Have fun losing at least 50 lbs guy. I guess he’ll have plenty of time to do that while he sits on the bench for at least 2 years
Man "Sweet Caroline" really gets me jacked up...
You all seem to forget that Jamarcus Russell was dominant at LSU.
Everybody keeps making that comparison as if Jamarcus wasn’t generally considered, along with Brady Quinn, to be the best college quarterback in America when he was a senior. Yes, he has sucked ever since the Raiders drafted him, but he was money at LSU.
