Heard this whole thang go down on 610 radio in Houston today on my way home from work. Hilarious how these guys got Les on the phone. Les is so damn laid back. Talked up Houston as a recruiting hotbed for LSU. Said he comes to Houston quite often and loves the city. He obviously knows his pizza (Grimaldi's!!!). He admitted to stopping by Elkins, but wouldn't name a player. For someone whose been in Houston 16 years, it was certainly a nice surprise on this Friday to hear some LSU spotlight, albeit brief.

Quick update - originally scheduled for a 7.30 departure, the plane appears still to be on the ground in Sugarland, with no revised flight plan at this time.

Either really good or really bad!

Sorry, but I'm pretty sure that is incorrect. It did fly back to Lake Charles (from West Houston) but returned to Sugarland shortly before 5pm.

The segment returning to base (Lafayette) has a 10.12 departure but is reporting delayed. I show nothing at this time from Sugarland back to Baton Rouge.

FWIW - at 5pm I don't think the pizza was ordered yet!

Looks like Corey Thompson is visiting TAMU tomorrow...

Surprised we hadn't heard any feedback from yesterday's OV (Shea, Ponamsky... Gino ). It appears they met for nearly 8 hours!

I was hoping he would have told me he had canceled when I asked that question but I still think we have a great chance even tho he is visiting tomorrow.

No way he was going to cancel the visit. He wants to meet the new DB coach and see what they can sell him.

Hopefully he switches here come Wednesday

Very true. I forgot they just hired a new DB coach. I truly believe he is LSU come Wednesday.

He'll be in CS tomorrow.

We expect to hold on to him.

I don't think he is going to sign with A&M. He has been talking to LSU players about what number he wants.

I like our chances
