I think in the age of social media, these kids are going to really enjoy this gesture. Another example of how we pull out all the stops to be the best...

Maybe I'm just a curmudgeon, but I'm not a huge fan of putting the individual players up there before they've earned it. I feel like once they've signed their LOI, inflating egos is counterproductive. I get that it is a way to entice unsigned recruits by showing how they will be treated, but I'd prefer they stuck with just the general team one.

They have earned it. They're sticking with the good guys. A little appreciation goes a long way IMHO.

Prepare for an onslaught of howls from the academic side who will rail that the same thing is not done for the top scholars entering LSU.

Nah, thats your nature.

I can make a list of about 10 of you that post here.
You'd be against almost anything positive that deals with LSU.

It's a great idea and one LSU should continue during the regular season. Welcome to the 21st Century!

I agree with the "earn it" comments, but I still like it overall. These guys are the future...

It's a fantastic idea! Not only does it help entice recruits, it also builds enthusiasm of fans.

Innovative idea for sure but let us be honest if Alabama had started this we would be bashing this idea.

Absolutely. I like it but if it was Bama doing it is want to know where the pile of money was.

Kinda like a "get to know your new Tigers" ad campaign.


I like it.

Given recent headlines re LSU budget concerns, it does seem wasteful.
