Parish is loaded next 3-4 years and Saban went after petitto to be on his staff. These kids have had relationships with him since they were kids. He has coached around here, trained them etc, grew up with all their parents. Say what u want about these kids leaving but when u have a person on staff at a school like Alabama that family and players know and trust, it's gonna be hard for LSU.

LSU will be just fine, just wish Petitto would have stayed with Kirby or Les would have went after him like he should have

What notable kids out of there for 2017 and 2018 class besides besides devonta smith? How can you even determine 2019 and 2020 class and how good it will be? Those were freshmen and 8th graders last year.

He doesn't have anything on S Tangi. Everyone knows the best coaches are at Ponchatoula, especially that DB coach they got.

Actually they did the quality guy left for usc for a few months. He works same position for Saban.

Also there is 2 freshman skill players one at kentwood and one at amite. Both will be offered. One already has the Bama offer.

Like I said lsu will be fine but there are more really good players than last 10 years coming out of this parish and Saban hired petitto for that reason along with others obviously

Never said they would. Read my message. Just saying it would have been good to keep a lot of these guys instead of them going to Bama. If u disagree with that ur just dumb

There's a very good chance Petitto isn't even at Bama when the 2019 kids sign in like 2.5 years. He'll just move on to the next highest bidder. As far as I can tell, Devonta Smith is the only 2017 standout from that area that LSU and/or Bama would want. Dont see any 2018 kids.

And as someone else pointed out, it's only North Tangi. Hammond and Ponchy are still LSU. And the northern part of the parish puts out more grade/character risks than top prospects anyway. Good luck to them on getting the one guy that qualifies each year.

Petitto left for Bama in January, Thomas did not leave until the next month.

Appreciate your post, but we now have the best staff in college football. Not worried about losing kids from Tangipahoa Parish.

N. Tangi maybe. Who is the last prospect from N. Tangi that went elsewhere and actually produced?

Saban has become a fricking master at this shite. He's so far ahead of the game in recruiting it's not funny. Any state around him with solid talent he finds a way in. It's nuts.

As I understand it, Sammy going to Alabama is as much Pruitt as it is Saban. I know he worked Saban's camps for years, and had a previous stint at Bama as a QC guy, but not sure he would be there without Pruitt and a guarantee of getting on the field when they increase the number of allowed staff.

Love Smith offered him an on field position and salary increase and he turned it down, so he must feel pretty good about his future w Pruitt and Bama. As far as LSU is concerned, he never would have been on staff w Wilson, but now that he is out of the picture, it would be possible, I guess, but imagine that would extend to Miles also.

We are stacked with national recruiters. If a LA player wants to go somewhere else, we will find top talent elsewhere. In some past times we HAD to have almost all of the top instate players. Now we can get top players out of state if we need to.
