Unfortunately, it's hard to recruit kids in GA. YOu've got so many schools coming in there and kids are very exposed to Alabama, Auburn, UGA, GTech, UF and others. LSU isn't really on their mind. Just a hard state to get in to without a feeder school.
USCe too...

Clemson, Tennessee, Auburn have the most success in GA other than UGA. Vandy was for a while with Franklin as well.

LSU has gotten some very good players from that state.
Mett, Riley, Sheppard, T-Bob, Minter, JC, Vadal, Redi Ferguson

But we have also gone in there and gotten some real duds or unproven guys to date:
Andy Dodd, Jennings, Cam Fordham, Brandon Worle, Drayton Calhoun, Derrick Bryant, Cordian Hagan, Steve Singleton...

Our baseball program is the one that really needs to kill this area...and they are doing great at it with the studs from Cartersville and Parkview recently (even though one fizzled out as a meth dealer before getting to campus thankfully)

ETA: Added Reid Ferguson to the appropriate category. Initially got sidetracked with work tasks.
