re: Scott Longs response to why he would choose LSU

Unless there was a Curley Hallman-type regime at the helm, LSU offers much more than any other school for Louisiana recruits.

There are many factors to choosing an out-of-state college program, but I think the most overrated one is to go to a school because of the current head coach (they can leave before you even arrive to campus). I think all recruits must ask themselves if they would choose the school if the current coaching staff announced they would not be there next year. If you can still answer "yes" then it's probably the best choice for them to go there. Otherwise, they need to reassess.
