Not a newspaper article or anything, but this is a link to the La All Stars site and it confirms Southall as a commitment. Not sure if that is the sort of confirmation you are looking for.

Southall and other commitments

LSU Recruit Jacoby Jones knocks in game tying run in Aflac All-American game. The game went into extra innings for the first time since its inception in 2003.

A single to left by Jacoby Jones of Richton (Miss.) High School drove in Trey Griffin of Martin Luther King Jr. High School (Stockbridge, Ga.) to tie the game 2-2 in the eighth inning.

Jones and Cecchini are going to be the biggest draft risks next year for us. I like what Mainieri did and recruited both of them at the same position just in case. Both are studs on the infield and I would love to see them in purple and gold.

"I've always grown up around LSU baseball," Slaid said. "That's the best program in the country. Obviously, they just won a national championship, but I've always considered them as good as it gets."

anyone hear if Lucas LeBlanc is gonna get a shot?

he is at Delgado now. i went to high school with him and he is one of the best ball players i have ever seen, he is just EXTREMELY raw because our coach sucked big time at getting the most out of his players.

With a long and lean frame, Gausman has good projectability for a prep pitcher. His fastball sits between 89-91 mph and he can get it up to 93. He mixes in a 77 mph breaking ball that he throws for strikes, and everything is around the zone.
