I believe he was the biggest influence as well on William Russ last year when Russ chose Texas and Muschamp over LSU.



I was under the impression that Russ was all LSU and LSU passed on him for Wing.

LSU was late making a charge for Russ, but they did offer. Russ wanted to go to LSU early in the game, but became disillusioned when LSU didn't step up. He committed to Ark, then decommitted to accept Texas's offer. Mack Brown promised he Russ would be their starting kicker as a true freshman (lying sack...!) and Russ bit.

LSU swayed him after their offer, but not enough to change his mind. However Russ never got any encouragement from Evangel coaches towards LSU.
