Neighboring states and the top program from this decade - not CA schools.

Jfranks, I'm curious... If KY goes to UCLA, would he just be Myles Jack's helmet holder for 2 years?

Not yet-but I think that changes. If we pull Young and McGraw-as we expect-maybe Dupre and Gochaux follow? May also be wishful thinking. But look, I wasn't sure we were getting Adoree until recently, so you never know.

Tell Jim to let LSU have just a couple recruits out of New Orleans and Baton Rouge - difficult to keep up with the juggernaut that is the UCLA football program.

I'll ask Saban if we can have a few. Didn't he pull 4 5 stars out of La?

Jfranks,

I understand your confidence, but in a place like TD, I would keep it in check. I didnt nor would I have ventured onto UCLA boards about us landing Hayden Rettig claiming it will help us create a pipeline to the West Coast. TD can be an unforgiving place and I hope you dont find that out too soon. I would however learn the topics I talk about before talking about them just like I would advise winning more than a Sun Bowl before talking about national titles.

One five star. Cam Robinson. Hootie and Sims are 4 stars and LSU never offered Sims. Nice try.

Brossette has reasons why he will be staying home. NDs Tom Loy has been peddling that ND may land him for months even knowing why Brossette will stay home. Selling scripts.

Brossette is the one any school would have a shot with because he, in a way, fears Fournette. Everyone knows it and its not really a secret. If he didnt have his situation then I would definitely lean towards him going elsewhere. Guice is not at all woried abiut LF and knows he will grt carries. Guice is going nowhere but LSU.

McGraw must be another telling multiple staffs great things. TaM is extremely confident they are getting him. Maybe UCLA people are just banking on Young pulling Mcgraw. Who knows. Gonna be interesting to watch

That's cool. I didn't talk about any national titles. I was honestly just checking out the mood on the La guys visiting UCLA later this month. It seems a couple are UCLAs to lose and a couple come down to us or LSU.I don't know what topics you mean.

I think there is some truth to this actually. We feel good but I know we don't get many out of La. As far as Brossette, I just know we're interested. I have no idea about the kids situation. I read an article where Brosette said he is keeping all his options open and taking all his visits and that he and the ND RBack coach are close and have a great relationship.

We have several coaches with New Orleans backgrounds on the staff, and we are big on both RBs. I wouldn't count us out. This whole Gochaux thing has been a big surprise also.


Well it will help them to know neither of them live in New Orleans

Jfranks,

Nobody has a clue what to read on these kids, like I told you in the other thread. Nobody really knows where they are going, see the UA game for confirmation Haha I have heard Dupre was all LSU for months with lots of FSU/UCLA chatter but in all actuality, nobody knows, not even insiders. Recruiting is a different game today and I wouldnt believe anything until the pen has spoken. Even then one cannot be too sure what will happen, ala Eddie Vanderdoes. I like LSUs pitch to DG and Dupre, but I think you land McGraw. KY is a total coin toss because some people say UCLA while others say and ATM and others say LSU. I think these kids are taking a free visit to a nice city and there is nothing wrong with that. But I find it a bit funny you are very confident over a visit or conversation with a recruit.

Fair enough. Mora will be in New Orleans Thursday. We may get a better idea of things after that.
