Whether he was told or not has nothing to do with what you are claiming
how does what LSU used to induce him to sign NOT involve my discussions on LSU inducing him to sign fraudulently?
that is my point

Bottom lines are pretty important
yup
LSU promised him a scholarship for 2010-2011
LSU has rescinded that offer

I know that with what happened on signing day, this moment could come. I could not care less. The biggest surprise for me was that all qualified. I would have thought the chances of that were less than 40%.
Is he wrong on that the point there??
The truth is, as an OL, he may well be better off for it if he sticks around.

I have no idea. It's possible, but that's not what's being argued here.

it is irrational to believe there would be this fallout had LSU been completely truthful with porter

but LSU didn't tell porter he was a GS candidate
by porter's reaction to the recent news, it is obvious he wouldn't have signed with LSU had he known this

rescinding a scholarship offer = pulling the scholarship

what part about fraudulent inducement and/or a breach of a contract don't you understand?
Posted on 8/4/10 at 6:28 pm to SlowFlowPro
why are y'all making the same exact arguments in 2 different threads?

You deserve a greyshirt offer as a LSU fan. You just don't quite measure up.

LSU offers you a scholarship for 2010-2011
LSU then takes this offer back
how is that not pulling his scholly?

I do believe that miles's integrity takes a hit in this episode. the current year recruits (except the elite level guys)have to wonder will this happen to them. porter is from nola so all those guys will see this and say "I can't believe LSU did this to him at the last minute".
white, turner, thomas, collins (miss.), martin all these guys have a legitimate chance to be the next porter and they all know the numbers are tight this year.
conclusion, we learned that miles moral compass is no greater than most sec coaches. college football is a big money business and money often outweighs morals even when adults are dealing with minors. greyshirts happen and life is not fair. move on.

You know he will have 5.5 to play 4 if he shows. yet you hang on "pulled" "lied" and whatever word fits your turn from the real issues.
