What is the insecurity in North Louisiana about?



Its not insecurity. We get players from N LA but the I20 corridor is loaded with D1 kids. Shreveport, Bossier, Ruston, West Monroe and Monroe. Those are just the big population areas, ever heard of Haynesville? its a football factory.

We can do better up there and BK knows it.

Haynesville has historically had some good football teams, but not many kids from there have been good enough to play for LSU.

There are some excellent players up in North Louisiana and LSU gets its share but I think the numbers of LSU caliber players up there are a little exaggerated.

LSU loses kids in South Louisiana too. Anderson, Ausberry, and Citizen just last year. Louisiana churns out lots of good high school players and you aren’t going to get them all.

Looking at the Top 30 Louisiana recruits (Dandy Don) from 2022 and there are 5 from North Louisiana snd LSU got the best one in Campbell. Decoldest Crawford was a commitment but decommitted and went elsewhere. Law went to Bama but definitely had an LSU offer. I don’t think you can say LSU isn’t recruiting the North Louisiana kids.
