Okeke was a monster steal at the time. Still waiting to see if he can live up to his potential.

Last minute signee. Came out of no where. Remember watching his commitment on ESPN.

Key wasn't a signing day steal, he committed a couple weeks before on TV.


247 shows he committed on 2/2 and signed his letter of intent on 2/4.

I thought Malachai Dupre was one of the 5 for 5, not Jamal Adams.

JC Copeland was another signing day switch. Not the biggest steal ever obviously, but notable at least

Ah I must be off with the timeline, I remember it wasn't officially signing day, guess only 2 days before then.

I remember jumping off the couch when Montgomery picked LSU.

I think the smoke started to pick up a few weeks earlier and crystal balls started to come in after the decommitment. It wasn't really as out of nowhere where as I suggested.

Yeah we'll see as the season plays out but he is doing it without Mingo on the other side.

Roy Winston .. LSU .. Vikings


Winston delivered one of the most devastating tackles ever filmed. In a game against the Miami Dolphins in 1972, fullback Larry Csonka circled out into the flat to catch a pass. Just as he caught the pass, Winston hit him from behind with such force that the 240-pound Csonka was nearly cut in half. The tackle was so grotesque it was shown on The Tonight Show. Csonka dropped the ball and rolled on the field in agony. He thought his back was broken and literally crawled off the field

Godchaux was more of a save than a steal

He had long been committed to us, then there was some drama over his LOI, the ole miss side saying he wanted to come to Ole Miss but his family wouldn't let him and a bunch of back and forth until he finally sent one into LSU

The staff cooled on Hootie a while before signing day, especially when they locked up Adams.


The push for Adams was even more important when we lost Tony Brown to Bama...
