JJ's there are specific reasons Alabama is so successful up here
Yep...They WIN...Kids are always going to flock to the winningest programs. When I was in school I wore something with Miami on it at least once a week. It's just the way kids are. As far as TCU, it's because they're here A LOT. They were here last week, as was LSU and 20 other programs. TCU has set up a great relationship with the area and taken kids that LSU passed over in previous years. They were the first ones to offer Slade after his junior season and had been talking to him all throughout the year. LSU obviously wasn't as aggressive in the past, but that has definitely changed since O has taken over. If a kid chooses to go elsewhere, it won't be because LSU wasn't here as was the case previously.
That being said, a kid still has to go to the best fit for him. He can't just blindly choose LSU because it's the home school. Under Miles, I would never want a kid like Slade to choose LSU. It was a terrible fit. Under Canada, the offense might be absolutely perfect for him.

Well said, your rebuttal is duly noted.

Slade's talent would have been wasted in the previous LSU offense. I think it will be much better suited in Canada's. My hope for him is that he picks the best fit for his set of skills, guys like him that are more APB need to find the right fit to where they can show their complete aresenal and be put in situations where they are in free space/open field.

JJ do you think Slade would be happy as an H-Back at LSU or would he prefer RB at TCU. Please note it is an opinion based question and I am not saying that Slade wouldn't play RB at LSU but Canada's offense makes this a different option for him at LSU.
