Here is a link. There has been a difference in LSU recruiting since he got to LSU.

Congratulations Austin, keep up the good work.



One of the finalist was Adrian Mayes of Houston. I would assume that he is the former Tiger who played in 2000 - 2003 and is from Houston.

Yep, doesn't have a coaching title so nobody ever brings him up but he has had as much impact as Frank or les in LSU recruiting.

It's a travesty that Austin and Vincent are among the lowest paid in the entire SEC at what they do. LSU admin's need to reward them and pay them for what they're worth and lock them both in for long term deals.

Rules have to change before that happens. Recruiting coordinator is a required position that must be filled by a member of the coaching staff. I think they are trying to get that changed, but I doubt it will happen this quickly. He's only able to recruit off campus right now because technically he is filling Frank's position right now, but this will end as soon as the new coach shows up.

Thats incorrect. Shea did a story on this last week. He can be the RC if Les decides to go that route.

The rules must have changed. I stand corrected. Yesterday, Les said this...
quote:

Could Thomas hold the recruiting coordinator title? Miles indicated Friday that it might not be possible for that to happen – at least not now.

“Right now, you can only give that piece to one of your assistants and the on-campus recruiter and coordinator,” the coach said.

This certainly was the rule at one time, but I can't find it with a cursory look anymore, so I don't know why his said it.
