re: How many of the top 10 recruits in Louisiana are going to other SEC schools?

You also have to consider the fact that this isn't a huge year for Louisiana prospects. While I understand people getting upset when a Louisiana player goes out of state, the counter is seeing LSU get 2 of the 4 best players from TN (both rated higher than most, if not all of the LA talent). LSU could also potentially get 3 of the top 10 players from TX (again, all rated higher than most, if not all of the LA top 10)

As much as we want to see LSU "build a fence" around the state, I'll take losing some LA players if it means getting BETTER players from elsewhere. The crushing blow is when you lose big time LA players during a banner year for the state. At least, on paper, 2017 doesn't look like a huge year for LA and LSU is still getting some big time players from other places
