Thoughts on Mike Elston for LSU DL coach?

If I recall when we originally hired Kelly, the Hope was that we signed him, but it didn't appear like there was interest on his side.

I don’t think ties to the south is that important. La kids that are good usually get a “all hands on deck” approach, plus you get the hometown boost. Mississippi is never an easy place to get a kid from, Alabama - same. Texas, Georgia and Florida are send plenty of kids OOS, but it’s battle grounds that you aren’t going to build a pipeline to.

Jamarr Cain did a fine job recruiting nationally here, which is what was needed. He had some bad luck that broke apart some of his class but he was a guy that was going to land some talent every year. They really screwed up House push him out.
