It's just hard to get so excited over Jr's. I really wish they wouldn't allow schools to offer Soph and Jr's. In five years SEC schools will be scouting peewee football games for prospects. It's just going to far and we talk about all these guys and get all pumped up and people switch commitments, change thier minds, coaches leave, players get hurt. I just think we should take it a year at a time and stop looking so damn far ahead.



Sorry, I felt like I had to get that out and now I feel better.

They don't.

Not for football. You can't contact them until their Junior year.

They already track middle school players. The LSU camp keeps track of year over year 40 time, height, weight, shuttle and high jump. You can see the coaches talking to the parents of the talented kids.

Along with all the other football camps, like FBU and O-D, players in the 7th and 8th grade start getting literature from schools, inviting them summer middle school camps.

I spoke with the LSU coaches this summer and they keep a database of the players progress, and send invitations to the ones they want to keep watching.

Remember the 10th. grader that gave a verbal to LSU years ago?
