Ware wasn't undersized. He weighed damn near 225 or so.

Im not saying they never do. But offering the fastest player in the state or the #1 player in the state is pretty safe, even if the guy is slightly undersized.

Brazil, Mathieu, and Magee were not terribly undersized. All are in the 5'9" range. Usually rare for a CB, but at RB, its about the size you want back there.

Do me a favor, Lester Earl. List the short players from Louisiana that LSU didn't recruit who went on to significant college success.



Hard to say exactly who wasn't recruited because of their height, or who flat out just wasn't developed enough athletically at the time.

Some River Parish guys: Darius Reynaud, Demaris Johnson, Jericho Nelson?
Mike Wallace?
Tony Bua?
Chris Brown?

dunno. Id have to look around.

Who?

You basically reinforced my point. If a player is good enough, the LSU staff will look past his height. It's not like we passed up on Zach Thomas and Darren Sproles.
