Maybe people who move from Louisiana don’t like Louisiana...

Not only that but most of Ed Oliver's folks are in Marksville. Can you imagine if both would have ended up at LSU.

It depends on how old he was when he moved.

People in this thread shitting on Louisiana have clearly never been to noxubee county. This place is like Disney world in comparison.

I think what the OP is getting at is the several misses, near-misses, and interesting cases . . .

Jalyn Ferguson - Jazz's brother and from just up river.
Ed Oliver - from Houston; LSU "dream school"
Marvin Wilson - from Houston; NSD defection to FSU
Buggs - once committed to us
Simmons-apparently has LA connections

Any/all would be difference makers.

Dewayne Hatcher’s


You mean Jason Hatcher? Played for the cowboys and skins and is from Jena. Or his uncle dewayne?

Pretty sure Jason was in the nfl at the time of the Jena 6, think he had a nephew involved so he moved his whole family out of town because it’s a shitty, closed minded place.

You can put that in the category of running down LA or not but Jena is the a-hole of La. and that’s saying something.
