That certainly didn’t last long.
LSU received big news nine days ago when it was announced that it had flipped 3-star RB A.J. Carter (Many, La.) from UCLA, but things have apparently changed.
On Wednesday, Carter released the news via his Twitter account that he has decommitted from LSU, saying that he “made the decision for the wrong reasons.”

The 6-foot, 220-pound Carter is rated as a 3-star recruit, ranked as the No. 31 RB in the nation and the No. 27 overall recruit from the state of Louisiana. He currently holds scholarship offers from Arizona State, Arkansas, Mississippi State, Missouri, Vanderbilt and UCLA among others.
He rushed for more than 2,000 yards last season and scored an impressive 35 touchdowns.
With Carter’s decommitment, LSU now has 21 commits for the class of 2018.
