I really like that the LSU Staff is being aggressive on OOS Recruits...

I am not saying that the top La recruits are playing games, but it does look like the Staff is not in a passive wait and see mode.
Offering guys in Texas is huge, because Texas HS Football is top quality football.
Better get your seat, This LSU train is moving fast.

....and around the corner, posters will have a complete meltdown if a La. recruit decides to head out of state.
Funny how that works.

They have to be, otherwise, relying solely on our in-state guys would no doubt leave us with holes in our class, should one or more of our top guys go elsewhere.

It is weird that the one year where our state has more talent than ever before that most of our commits are from OOS recruits.
My theory is that the OOS recruits see how loaded our state is and want to make sure they have a spot in the class which is great because we have some High Quality kids committed.
The problem comes in and I truly believe this will happen is that some instate kids get left behind.
We have 7 commits (Really 8 with the Rasheed kid) ... That leaves 17 spots and here is my guess on how many more we take at each postion.
2 Rbs - LF and (Shorter, DW, Paliei) ... 15 spots left
3 Wrs - Dupree, Noil, and (Quinn, Williams, Brown) 12 spots left
1 TE - McNeil
2 OL - Brumfield and Robinson () 9 spots left
4 DL - Willis, Clark, Godchaux, (And a guess) 5 spots left
2 Lbs - Young and Davis () 3 spots left
3 Dbs - Brown, Jones, and (Johnson, Jackson, Adams etc etc)
That means we do not take a QB nor do we take more than 3 OL.

It worries me a little bit, but I trust Les and "Frankie." They always got the paper tigers' back.

can't do that. being passive just doesn't work in the long run. recruiting is a man's job and requires balls. texas damn sure ain't the only place that contains top quality players and LSU must recruit all over the country to maintain it's status as a top flight program. i believe we will always sign most of the top flight guys from La (as long as miles is here) but year in and year out LSU needs more numbers and always has. the DIFFERENCE MILES MAKES is that we are attracting top quality oos talent where we used to get leftovers to a great extent. LSU will have a schollie reserved for the top La players. no way will we turn one down that wants to go to LSU. it's never happenened and it never will. the one's leaving the state made their choice, not the other way around. yea, the staff has to make choices; not all La talent is SEC material.
