Alabama, Tennessee, and Arkansas were playing real games last week. Texas and Mississippi were playing scrimmage games. Ohio and Pennsylvania played real games too.

This is what we're getting in Louisiana...

Spoke to a very close friend and D1 college coach recently. When I called, he was looking at game tape of '21 recruits that had already played games. I asked if he thought not starting until Oct or later would hurt the La '21 kids in recruiting. "Absolutely we may be full by then"

@CoachRobertValThis high school football game has me a bit on edge right now. I know the Wildcats would be out here flying around ballin’. Beautiful Downtown Vacherie would be rockin’ and The Wildcat Nation would be lit.

Dear @LHSAA
Student athletes are missing out on scholarship offers because we are the only State not playing football. My boys need football to heal from the violence going on in our city.. #RIP14

Every state that touches Louisiana is playing football. Every state that touches those states are playing football! What are we doing? LET US PLAY!

This coach replied to his own tweet with more info each time. It's worth reading:

This thread is intended to give a logical chain of information that should point to football being played right now. This isn't a criticism or intended to be negative. (1/10)

The media got into too:

Hearing from the parents of many Louisiana high school football players who are struggling badly to see other states playing games without a problem.

"We should be playing tonight. These seniors cannot get this time back! It's TERRIBLE."
