Are you an LSU fan?

I get you want to be Mr. Objective and all but LSU has plenty to offer these kids. LSU has more NFL players and more NFL players at their position. At LSU, Dupre will work with Cam Cameron, a former NFL head coach and OC, and Young will work with John Chavis, one of the top LB coaches in recent memory.

At LSU, both would compete weekly against top flight talent and be very prepared for the next step up to the NFL. Both would be on national TV 10 games minimum per season. They would have an opportunities to participate in some of the most anticipated games each year and a chance at SEC and national titles.

This is not at all true of UCLA and while FSU won the MNC this season and has a very good team, they are in a mediocre league. Sure they have the shot at conference and national titles there as at LSU, but they won't play in as many huge games. The SEC is where it is at.

Oh, and then there is that little fact that their family and friends can attend all of their games without breaking their budget.

All of these should be obvious. You realize that we have a top 5 program, with talented coaches, amazing facilities, great game day atmosphere, in the best conference and we're close to home, right?

This shouldn't need to be explained on an LSU message board to LSU fans.

This is not a tough decision for either guy. It's up to them to make the choice. I think Dupre picks LSU. Have no idea on Young.
