Shockingly, a 15-year-old mega recruit’s LSU commitment did not last

Good morning! It’s your daily wakeup roundup of college football stuff.

Dylan Moses, the unanimous No. 1 linebacker/running back 2017 recruit from Baton Rouge, has decommitted from LSU years after his verbal.

“Wait, years?” you say. “If he’s a 2017, that means he’s about to be a high school junior. Does that mean he committed in like middle school?”

Not only did LSU offer Moses in eighth grade, so did Alabama, Texas and others (everybody got pretty mad when Bama did it).

At the moment, he’s got just about the highest 247Sports Composite rating possible, a .9999, and could be one of the most hyped prospects ever. He says the Tigers are still his favorite, but that he wants to be 100 percent before he commits for good. This is tantalizing news to every other top-tier program.

Good for him either way! With his potential second NFL contract about a decade away, this is his only real chance to use his leverage for his own benefit, for a long, long time.

Here are the recruiting pitches that would’ve worked on us in eighth grade, by the way. How about you?

Fun and gun ain’t done. Steve Spurrier’s South Carolina has a better shot at a top-20 finish than you think, concludes Bill Connelly.

If it ain’t about the money ... When the Big Ten announced a batch of schedule-toughening rules, it pointed out benefits for fans and improved Playoff chances. When pressed, it hinted that this is all about holding onto the ESPN cash torrent.

Mars Hill at Western Carolina snubbed. Alabama vs. Wisconsin is your College GameDay opener and HOLY SMOKES COLLEGE FOOTBALL IS ALMOST HERE

HOLY SMOKES COLLEGE FOOTBALL IS ALMOST HERE. EDSBS runs through five things to take care of before kickoff, such as eating your last vegetable until Thanksgiving.

ITISLIT UNIVERSITY. Illinois tops your Princeton Review party rankings this year, but the real story is the Upper New York/East Pennsylvania Fertile Crescent of Partying.

Ranking Pac-12 uniforms. UCLA is not the automatic No. 1 here, and is in fact nowhere near No. 1, which means adidas should go to jail.

Air Huskers. The stats suggest Nebraska’s new offense will be a little less Tommie Frazier and a little more ... um, you know, the Nebraska QB known for passing a lot? Is there one? Ever?

Saban’s Revenge! Four-star defensive end Terrell Hall decommits from Ohio State, with Bama and Penn State among the favorites.

“Ungrabbable, so please don’t try to grab this.” These new Under Armour unis for Auburn, Notre Dame and others look fine, but they include mystical materials that are impervious to human touch, it sounds like!

Vince Young’s Take House. The Texas legend will wear Cal gear on TV if the Golden Bears beat his Longhorns.

“‘I had no idea I was gonna take my shirt off today,’ one tells me. ‘I just graduated from MTSU last week.’” The story of watching the Saturday morning “COMIN’ TO YOUR CIT-AY” video being filmed is tremendous.
