ETA: Also, I don't like HS coaches that steer kids anywhere, be it to LSU or away. They need to let the kid and his family decide where the best place for him is and not try and influence their decision.

Every year there is some coach that is steering kids away from LSU.

It is just rationalizing.

I don't know about Byron Dawson but this whole Evangel hates LSU theory has been going on for over a decade.

The beginnings of the theory were sound and revolved around Dennis Dodd and his close relationship with Mack Brown. The two of them were old friends and it was no secret that Dodd steered his players to Texas: Pittman, Lee, Geigar, etc. Saban got a couple of recruits in Maxwell and Hester but only because he was a relentless recruiter and those guys were deemed not good enough for Texas.

The theory gained momentum after the Booty brothers came to LSU. Daddy Booty was a fan of LSU but apparently felt that Josh, along with Abram after his back injury, was slighted at LSU. The third Booty, John David, never considered LSU. Unlike the above paragraph, I don't know if any of this is fact. This is only what I have heard secondhand.

Now the theory continues with this Evangel DC who played for LSU under Saban but apparently does not like Miles. I don't know if this is fact...but a lot of people say so.
