Who were the last few and how did they fare in college?

The last one other than Landon Collins was Joe McKnight who went to USC and didn't even come close to living up to his hype.

Yeah I'm talking about Louisiana recruits that go out of state. Neither one of them went out of state.

McKnight-USC
Janzen Jackson-Tennessee

Then some guys who weren't as big like Benton to Auburn, Sentimore and Lacy to Bama, etc.

I know. Bad attempt at a joke due to the angst most recruitniks build up when literally the same thread pops up 10 times a day near Signing day.

Sentimore-kicked off of Bama
Robbie Green- kicked off of Bama
Janzen Jackson- thug that left Tennessee or kicked off
Travon Reed- average at Auburn
DeAngelo Benton- non factor at Auburn

Not that big a deal

Kids that leave Louisiana despite having an LSU offer often have a serious screw loose. Most are traitors and attention seekers who have great ability but falter on the field due to their psychosis. We need kids who want to be here, not kids who are unstable ego driven freaks.

Did Sentimore commit to the Vols after his JUCO year?

So far, the biggest misses in terms of production have been McKnight, Janzen, and Eddie Lacy. But none of them have really made us pay for it like Warrick Dunn or Peyton Manning. Or even come close.

We average 7 out of the top 10 from La each year.

An average of 15-18 Louisiana kids per year.

But the truth is, nearly half our 2 Deep was from OOS:

QB Lee
RB Ware
WR Shep
WR Boone
C/OG T-Bob Hebert
OG Williford
OT Hurst
OT Shaw
DE Montgomery
DE Adams
DT Brockers
LB Baker
LB Hatcher
LB Minter
DB Brooks
DB Bryant
DB Loston
P Wing

So that's 18 OOS players right there. I am sure I missed 1 or 2.

Harsh and you couldn't be more wrong. First off, if I was a recruit and read your arrogant statements, I could easily come to the conclusion that LSU fans were pricks like you. Secondly, many kids want to leave the state to experience life away from home. Thirdly, if we use your logic than many of our OOS players would fall under your catigory of ego driven freaks. We have a bunch of Tigers that were offered by there instate school and still decided to come to LSU. Remember too, that these recruits you are talking shite about are teenagers. Stay classy Pineville.
