Can anyone paraphrase the Rivals article on Vadal Alexander out of Buford, GA who is an OT in the class of 2012? Have a subscription to Scout but not Rivals. I met this young man's father at my gym this past fall and Vadal was already getting a lot of interest from major schools. Father played football at Nicholls; they've been in GA for quite a while but are interested in LSU as well as other schools from what I remember him saying. Seemed like a very nice man. Thanks in advance!

said that LSU is dream school and hopes to play for the tigers. Offers alrady from south carolina, bama, georgia and few others. according to him he will be a tiger.

Thanks for the info!! His team won the state championship in 2A. Talked to his dad when they were about to play the quarterfinal game. Dad was real down to earth.

Lache said something similar.

It seems that you can lose these guys easier when they covet our program, early.

Maybe it is a symptom of the end result of all things being equal in the end, but their dream school did not separate itself like they thought it would.

Schools spend the same amount of money on recruiting, relatively.

I think all you can do is just hope that you attract a lot of out-of-state talent and hope your home state does two things:

Put out a lot of talent and hope that talent stays home.


Last year was a just like any other year with big time de-commits, but maybe its significance was percieved differently.






While you're at it, look at all 2012 Rivals recruits. Look at Quay Evans. Dang, don't frikn tell me he was a soph when they took that pic.

This guy is a straight up beast and Buford has produced a good bit of DI linemen. Buford can and has beat several AAAA and AAAAA teams.

Du'Von Millsap signed with South Carolina and Kolton Houston signed with Georgia for 2010.

Dallas Lee signed with Georgia and Blake Bennett signed with Alabama-Birmingham in 2009.


Buford just churns out great OL

Same HS as former LSU and now South Carolina lineman Stephen Singleton, right? And Omar Hunter?

And the same high school that Storm Johson couldn't hack it at?

with this year being unreal in the state for OL, I wonder what 2012 will look like? We have a big kid at Ruston, and that along with Vadal's LA ties it got me thinking about it
