Christian LaCouture is really a TX kid. This is not a strong year in TX and the staff only went after a few of the big names. You rather the staff reach for TX kids over bringing in studs like Herron, Neal, and Gilmore?

...no...but I'd like to steal chips from E. Texas. We've gotten some excellent bargains from there. In the past, we were the closest option for those kids that wanted to play big time ball in the SEC...now...College Station is closer. TAMU joining the SEC and being competitive affects LSU more than any other team in the SEC...by far.

You people are delusional. We picked up recruits from California, Georgia, North Carolina and about 4 other states all 4 stars. That is amazing. Texas A&M is wrecking shop though in recruiting which sucks

LaCouture wouldn't surprise me if he switches to A&M last minute a la Shiro Davis to UT last year.

THIS. SInce Les got here, our recruiting in GA, SC, FL, and Memphis has increased considerably, although our TX recruiting has gone down. But that's okay, I think there's more talent in the Southeast than there are players in TX willing to go to LSU.
