keep an eye on some of these guys for the class of 2010. All have LSU offers.


Tobi Oyedeji

6'8 210lbs. Rivals lists him as a 4 star center. He's out of Houston. Tobi says he likes that LSU plays fast and is being recruited by Brent Scott. He holds offers from Arizona State, Georgia Tech, Louisville, OU, and A&M as well as others.

Jalen Courtney

Jalen is a 6-7 200lb power forward. Rivals lists him as a 3 star. Jalen was on the all-state tournament team in Mississippi. Jalen has offers from Mizzou, Auburn, and Arkansas, but is an LSU commit.

Matt Derenbecker

Matt is a 6'6 180lb small forward from Metairie. He is a teammate of LSU commit (2009) Eddie Ludwig. He holds a 4.0 GPA. Averaged 23pts a game his sophomore year at Ponchatoula, transferred to Country Day but I can't find stats on his jr year. People from the board who saw him have said he shot the ball well. He holds offers from LSU, Ole Miss, and Witchita State.

Langston Galloway

6'3 185lb shooting guard from Baton Rouge. Averaged 21pts a game as a sophomore but again, I cant find stats on this year. His video looks ok. Pretty quick with the ball in his hands and a decent shooter. Galloway is a 4 star who holds offers from Baylor, Ole Miss, St. Joseph's, and Texas A&M along with LSU.

Phil Pressey

a four star point guard from Dallas. He's 5'10 190lbs. He averaged 19 points, ten assists, and 4 steals his junior year. May be a long shot as he also holds offers from UConn, Florida, Mizzou, Oklahoma, and Texas, though his father lives in New Orleans and is Hornets assistant Paul Pressey.


Other guys hold offers, but are pretty big long shots IMO or not as highly regarded as these guys.

Phil Pressey would be an amazing addition, but he is definitely a long shot at this point. Jalen is already committed to LSU. I think we sit pretty well with Langston. Tobi would be a great big presence down under. Don't know much about derenbecker.

i didnt watch anything on Ludwig as he is already signed for 2009, but Derenbecker's video is pretty awful. a made 3, some FT's, rebounds, and then a bunch of missed shots. If he paid someone to put that tape together, he needs a refund. Someone should tell Skike highlight videos are supposed to make someone look good.

Brian Williams-SG from Glenn Oaks has an offer as well. I personally like him better than Galloway at SG, but Galloways ability to play PG and SG makes him important.

I watched his video on Tigerbait and was like wtf until I realized it was footage from one game that Scarborough had filmed. I watched the replay of the 1A championship game on Cox the other day and Derenbecker shot lights out in the game,has a nice left handed shot and is at least 6'6".

What about the GOAT Michael Jordan's son Marcus Jordan? If I'm not mistaken, he plays the PG position right?
