Whenever a new fraternity comes on to campus, they usually have a hard time getting people to join. Since they really need someone to sign, they do what is referred to as "blanket bidding", which is giving a bid out to everyone who comes through rush. This results in a bunch of random guys that nobody really likes and a fraternity that is looked down on by it's peers.



Awesome analogy. I might have to jack this comment and use it Don't worry, I won't claim it as my own.

Good job Kiffen, but you still haven't proven you can coach these kids yet. The little fig went 5-15 in the NFL, and those retards from Tenn. hired his stupid arse anyway.

So if I'm understanding everyone correctly, Lane Kiffin is not very well liked?

Gee, I always thought he seemed like such a swell fella.

With the list I have compiled from both Scout and Rivals offers up to this point, I count 144 LSU offers given out since the start of process.

That is counting a claimed offer from a New Jersey TE today and Benay Pryer.

A lot more than I can fit into one thread. I've weeded out the offers that I think are lies and the players that simply are not going to come here, but just want their profiles to show that they have an LSU offer.

I was curious of this as well. How many offers do the big schools (UF, LSU, UGA) have out on average compared to UTK's?

It's really hard to tell. For a list, check in my Commitments thread in the excel spreadsheet link.

LSU's numbers are going to be inflated, because most of our information comes from recruiting services who have to go off of the words of kids in high school. The higher caliber the program, the more likely kids are to just add that school as an offer to make them look good.

With that said, I think the lists are for the most part accurate.

That is true for most programs and not just the high caliber ones. You can usually tell from the details given in the updates on the recruiting services if they are being honest or not. But some of these kids do not understand the offer process fully and really believe they have verbal or commitable offers and they don't have HS coaches who have experience in the process either.
