re: Does TOPS Give LSU an advantage in recruiting?

Tops and similar set ups by different names certainly give lotto state schools

The La system is nothing close to a "lottery" system. It must be earned by the student ans student athlete.

First of all, baseball has been decimated by the NCAA, those athletes cannot hope to get a full scholarship, thanks to political correctness and the lap-dog-mentality-of-the-NCAA's leadership.

Second of all, ONLY LOUISIANA ATHLETES CAN UTILIZE TOPS, GIVEN THE NORMAL LAY OF THE LAND. There are instances where young people from military families and outsiders who established residency for 2 year, where they can qualify for TOPS. However, you cannot get TOPS if you are recruited in a sport, from out of state, that IS NOT AN EXCEPTION OF LOSFA.......PERIOD.

SO...the Mississippi fans who talk about this, don't know what they are talking about. But like the USL fans, they are envious of their shadow....they are needy, in general, and in that set of needs is a need for more education. I don't mean to disparage those folks more than they-disparage-themselves, but they really are barking up the wrong tree, and they are probably Bulldoggies, who have finally advanced to a championship game, looking like cowyard thugs, so they can just shut up
