Boutte, Burns, Lee, Finley, Jenkins from this year.

Stingley, Emery, Thomas, Palmer, Davis, Lee, Perry, Starks from last year.

Damn near all of our Louisiana signings are from South Louisiana.

LSU has signed/commuted 19 players for SELA during that same time period. You mentioned 5.

Roy doesn't belong in this list.

We don't have reason to say he isn't loyal.

The biggest problem with Saban going there is he uses his LA ties to recruit

Just like California isn't loyal to USC, UCLA, etc., or Baltimore to UM, or Virginia to VT, or ...

... or forget it.

My son wants to play for LSU right now (and we would be thrilled). But if he's fortunate enough to get that level of interest over the next year, and he wants to go to Bama, and I'm convinced his reasons are sound, then I give my blessing.

How could a parent tell a son not to play for Saban? Because you're so emotionally stunted that "state loyalty"
- this is Louisiana we're talking about - wins out over all other considerations?

They go where the players are. They scout all the way down to the middle school levels.

If you think Sam Petito joined the bama staff for his coaching merits you’re a moron. Guy was brought on to land Tangipahoa area kids and recruit a guy like Sanders to funnel money and influence. Now that the well of talent has dried up you won’t hear much about sanders anymore, the same way the handler in Thibodeaux vanished after Trovon Reed and Greg Robinson went to Auburn.

The worst thing possible is bama getting inroads at two Baton Rouge schools in U High and Southern Lab. That’s absolutely inexcusable.

I have a hard time looking at LSU’s commit list then bitching about kids leaving their home state to play football. A bit hypocritical.

LSU gets like 90% of The in state kids it wants , more than Alabama gets in Alabama or Georgia gets in Georgia and its “ Bama West “ .

As they say so eloquently on the OT “ your a moran “.

I don't know what loyalty has to do with it.

What did LSU do for them to gain any loyalty? Loyalty is a two-way street.

We lost out on those players, in which Smith has been the only difference maker. The way I look at recruiting is that if we are able to replace what is lost, then it doesn't matter. We lost Moses but got Jacob Phillips. Lost out Sopher but replaced him with Ika. Lost out on Chris Allen but got Chaisson.
