What HS consistently produces the best talent. I have lived in Ohio for a few years now so I'm not up to date with Louisiana high school sports.

I won't give a single school, but our two biggest recruiting grounds are up and down the river parishes from Baton Rouge to New Orleans, and in northeast louisiana (monroe/bastrop areas).

Acadiana is probably #3. It happens to have a really good class this year.

Year in and year out I have to go with St. Aug. They had something like 11 kids sign D1 last year, and from what I hear that trend will continue.

West Monroe, Evangel, Curtis, and Acadiana are a few that come to mind as far as always having a handful of D1 recruits every year.

For a small number of schools in a specific area, I don't think any area produces as many prospects as the river parishes. Hahnville, Destrehan, ESJ, WSJ, Lutcher and St James pump out a lot of quality.

Some individual schools that put out a lot of guys (not only to LSU) would be:
OP Walker
Karr
Curtis
West Monroe
Breaux Bridge
Evangel
and a few others as well.

From Shreveport if you travel I-20 just over the Texas line you get a lot of good players from small towns. Longview, Tyler, Marshall, etc.

Didn't see anyone mention Dutchtown (Kelvin York, Eddie Lacy, Eric Reid, Landon Collins), who has started to put out good prospects recently.

Surprised Carencro High hasn't been mentioned yet with the likes of Kevin Faulk, Marcus Carmouche, Derrick Beavers, Wade Richey, Damian James, Lucas Taylor, and Quinton Lawrence. Not to mention the four recruits they have this year.
