How does this happen?

I know several big money guys from this area that are not happy with this.

"Kelly Landry, the Tiger Athletic Foundation director of operations and services, confirmed in an e-mail that the tour will not be held in the area, saying the local TAF chapter — the Tri-Parish Tigers — opted not to host the event this year."

It's better to be pissed off than pissed on! Let the big mouths put up the money and host whatever they want...

Stop getting your oil changed at Walmart and they'll be back.

The Booster Group down there said thanks but no thanks when they were told Les wasn't going and they were getting Frank Wilson. They didn't feel like they could sell the tables with just Frank. Several stops this year have assistants instead of Miles. This is the only one that said no thanks!

shite, I would have been more likely to buy a ticket if it was Frank Wilson speaking. I have heard Les speak at these functions and he's good but to hear Frank take questions about recruiting in Thibodaux would have been good.

I agree. Chavis is going to Lafayette and Alexandria next week. Wilson is in Monroe on Thursday.

That damn place has become an Auburn pipeline. Why should we continue to pander to deaf ears?

Chase Clement is from Thibodaux and so is the commit from Thibodaux High in next years class.


The 2 that went to Auburn went there because of the money. Let them go! Robinson did not want to come here cause he couldnt beat out collins and he knew it

This decision has nothing to do with recruits going to Auburn. WHere do yall come up with this shite? Les has too many things going on to make these and they thought they would mix it up a bit. Just because two recruits go to Auburn doesnt mean anything. We cant help it that we have so many recruits.

You're a fricking idiot.

The Offensive Coordinator from down in Terrebonne (or is it South Lafourche?) was hired, and his FIRST order of business was to indicate that any players working with Nelson's Non-Profit or associating with Nelson himself would no longer be eligible to play football at THS.

He then banned Trooper from campus. PERMANENTLY.

Granier on that squad is a commitment, and there's plenty of talent there on a year-to-year basis.

Get a clue before you talk shite about things you don't know about.
