Cam Akers Question

It's our hometown recruiting analysts that feel good. Have you seen the most recent 2017 class prediction? It would be a dream to get who they predicted. We are just being optimistic.

MS kid very close to Baton Rouge. Loves the family environment. He would come in behind Guice (JR year) and expect to be the go-to RB by his SOPH year.

Feel good about this one

I live in the city where Cam plays (Clinton, MS). I have heard since last year that he has always thought a lot of LSU. Had a family member who was a coach at the high school who told me that multiple times.

However being high on LSU and becoming a Tiger are two different things. I think we have a good shot at him but it will be up to the recruiters and coaches to put their best foot forward and try to land him. I know Bama and Ole Miss are making very hard pushes for him as well so it will come down to the wire like everyone else always does.

Every year we get someone we don't expect and lose someone we do expect. I think this will go the same way if we get him we lose someone we thought we had.
