re: How would playing UT in the Texas bowl have helped us in recruiting?

I am glad this has its own thread. I have mentioned this in other threads. This whole hysteria over going to a bowl in Texas helping recruiting is ridiculous and I have yet to have a single person give a good reason as to why it is such a big deal. It is a Rantard creation that people just recite because they have nothing of value to say.

People will argue it because Houston/East Texas is in our recruiting footprint and that it's a good last showing for recruits considering schools like A&M or Big XII schools. The game is also primetime.
The reality is that LSU is a brand name and East Texas is still an LSU stronghold. While the Music City Bowl is not a primetime game, most recruits will still be watching it. It's two high profile schools. This also gives us an opportunity to look at players in that region and also quick flights to the Carolinas for recruiting.

I'm pretty sure they wanted to beat Texas moreso than playing in texas. Being that Texas is our main pipeline. Beating ND is better I'll, though.
