After LSU, Neb. and Tex. AM were only major offers. MC was the 90th rated wide receiver coming out. Les and company knows how to spot talent


Anyone that knows much about Fair Park in Shreveport really has to pull for Claiborne to make it. It's a tough inner city school with a lot of underperforming kids in tough environments, and it's quite a credit to MC for being able to rise out of that setting and make the most out of his opportunities. He seems to be on track to pick up a degree if he doesn't leave for the NFL and is really a good story. He has to be one of the biggest success stories on the team.

Mo is awesome!!! Top 10 pick in the NFL. Unfortunately, he's going pro this year unless an injury happens. Good luck to him. Enjoyed watching him play so much and he's passing the torch to Simon. LSU is stacked at DB

I didn't know that much detail about his life. Thanks for sharing. Seems like a very humble kid. Couldn't be happier with his success and representation of the university.

A local scout talked about him when he was a senior there and mentioned that part of the reason he wasn't being followed/offered by many schools was because Fair Park didn't have resources to shoot game film therefore there wasn't much of him in high school. LSU was on him but most other big programs didn't have any film because the school couldn't produce it.

Credit to Miles and staff for finding the talent and using their own evaluation regardless of services and other schools.

its okay, the reason why claiborne was spotted was because the genius known as dj mccarthy recruited him
