He says he's waiting until NSD to announce.Patterson wide receiver Daylon Charlot took his official visit to LSU this weekend and left an uncommitted prospect. The 6-0, 180-pound Alabama commitment has been heavily courted by the Tigers since the summer and after his visit this weekend, Charlot decided to open his recruitment up.
"I told Coach (Les) Miles that I was decommitting from Alabama when we sat to talk today," an excited Charlot said. "He was excited, very excited. He said they need me really bad. "I got home late so I plan on calling Coach (Billy) Napier at Alabama in the morning to let him know. I think they may even be coming by on Monday, really."
yeah, it's been a long time coming.....great prospect, but I can't say that we haven't turned down equals already.Aaaaaaaand as expected he's decommitted
I'm sure Saban loved this. Charlot tells Miles he's going to decommit from Alabama before he actually does it? Link for story

I doubt Saban waits on him...........:cool2:I'm sure Saban loved this. Charlot tells Miles he's going to decommit from Alabama before he actually does it? Link for story

Thanks for the heads-up ... was wondering about this when I kept looking for an official confirmation that he actually de-committed. He's a gifted athlete and will be successful for whoever he plays for. Would encourage him to pray about it and make the decision thats best for him. Would like to see him in Crimson but at the end of the day its all about whats best for him.There is actually info coming out that Charlot is in fact still committed to Alabama after talking to Coach Napier on Monday. The feeling out there is that the last school to talk him will get his signature on NSD..but he is technically still committed
No one is disputing what he told Miles, though, at least not from what I've read.There is actually info coming out that Charlot is in fact still committed to Alabama after talking to Coach Napier on Monday.

True, but at the same time,WR is arguably the deepest position we have, and as much as a talent as he is, it doesn't REALLY hurt us.
Maybe LSU should look at one of their RB's. It worked for us!:biggrin2:True, but at the same time,
1. LSU still doesn't have a QB
2. There will never be an opportunity for a WR to earn early playing time as good as the 2015 season.
The regular season has ended for LSU, but the recruiting season is in full swing and Tigers' coaching staff is trying to take full advantage of their opportunities. This past weekend brought about one commitment, and one prospect de-commitment from Alabama that is marred by conflicting reports.
Things are certainly heating up on the recruiting trail so take the journey with me in this week's LSU recruiting notebook.
We broke the story on Sunday night that Patterson WR Daylon Charlot had intentions of de-committing from Alabama and shared those feelings with LSU's head coach Les Miles. Charlot also reported that Alabama was planning on visiting him really soon and that he would make his final announcement on National Signing Day.
Well, reports surfaced yesterday that he is still solid with Alabama, but I'm looking at this as a kid who has a hard time telling people no, and that includes writers and coaches. He's a really nice kid and it's not in his nature to turn someone down. With that said, he obviously has feelings for both LSU and Alabama, but per my conversations with him throughout the week, I get the feeling he really wants to be at LSU.
Couple of counterpoints here:True, but at the same time,
1. LSU still doesn't have a QB
2. There will never be an opportunity for a WR to earn early playing time as good as the 2015 season.
