Slade Nagle. Great name. Remember him at Saint Thomas More from years ago.

Sorry that was Barbe. My mistake.

He’s really trying to lock up the state. But Saban will still pull out all the stops to steal our talent. Oh, wait…

The man has a plan.

One of the first things he did when he got to LSU was started this “state of football” & “the path” campaign. Gonna be a good next 8-10 years for LSU football

that staff is set up to dominate Louisiana recuits both in the tranfer portal and high school. I agree with the poster that said now that Saban is not in the SEC, look for Texas to try to set up shop in Louisiana. That is LSU's main competition right now.

But but but... Bama fans & Reece Davis told me he wasn't a cultural fit for Louisiana.

Hes building in preparation for what many believe to be the 3 class('25-'27)deep wave of talent from Louisiana that will lead to our next title run. Shouldn't be any fretting about that.

Not that it matters for recruiting but it definitely didn't hurt when we went to hire him

The strategy appears to be focus on Louisiana and bordering states. With the transfer portal, keeping players near home will create much more stability. There are few areas of the country where that would work, due to lack of talent. It will work here.

I love the staff. I just hope Joe Sloan is ready for the big time when the lights come on

He has put together a dream team of coaches on offense and defense. You don't have to pay high NIL to players you just get a superstar bunch of coaches and let them Coach up the players you get.
