Two high school coaches, one who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said there will be no boycott of LSU football by local schools after the demotion of running backs coach Jabbar Juluke.

Juluke was re-assigned to another unspecified job in the athletic department last Thursday, the day after national signing day. Several local high school coaches will meet Thursday night, but a source said that Juluke’s dismissal is only “ten percent of the meeting.” “There is no boycott of LSU,” said St James high school coach Robert Valdez. “I did talk to coach Orgeron and expressed my concerns. We had a great conversation.”

Valdez was a college teammate of Juluke’s at Southern University. Tuesday afternoon Juluke was re-hired by Texas Tech as its running backs coach. Juluke will also serve as associate head coach.

A coach who chose to remain anonymous said that reports of a boycott are “way overblown.” “Why would we boycott LSU?,” said the coach. “We have kids who want to play there.”


I hope this appeases all you chicken littles

Figured. This just further proves that some people are dumb enough to believe anything. Boycotting LSU is the furthest thing from the kids' best interest, which is what these coaches should be most concerned with. A boycott would make no sense.

Already back peddling that's what I thought. That would have been the dumbest move in the history of HS football but at the same time I wouldn't put it past those N.O. Schools. They aren't well known for genius's running these programs. Imagine a Karr with a decent HC like Frank Wilson or even Juluke. These schools need to tighten up. Coaches make all the difference in the world. Another reason LSU will be more successful going forward IMO. GT

Win a bunch of football games and keep putting NO guys in the league, there won't be any rift.

No one was going to boycott LSU. Coaches at St Aug were still pissed about Juluke being fired, Johnson not getting the job and another member of the Joseph family getting the job. It's New Orleans and no one can ever get past high school.

You can joke about it, but you called this a firestorm earlier...even suggested alums of the school wouldn't touch this subject.

This is important.

Glad Orgeron is talking to them and explaining it.

If it's no boycott why are they speaking anonymously? Some folks are pissed off in New Orleans.

Some of you just love controversy even when there isn't one.

A position coach was fired and no one knows what may have led up to his being let go but automaticly Coach Orgeron is at fault when in fact he may have a dsmn good reason.
