Walker supports LSU big time, but maybe not as much as Denham does...they haven't had much of an LSU pipeline-off the top of my head, I can't remember anyone playing for us since Lionel Turner. Of course Walker football sucked for about 15 years...

In my opinion (I coached against him and Hilton this past year) Thomas is much better overall WR. Hilton is an absolute burner. If i had to choose between the two, I want Thomas. Unfortunately everything I hear is bama lean.

Seems that's been the word from everyone since Saban visited him to offer him at school.

Saban has been on campus multiple times. It is going to be tough but i do not think we are out of it by any means.

Mainly focused on Brian or are there other prospects/up and comers he's after?

Chris Hawkins, but the point still stands. LSU town that just hasn’t had many high level prospects.

First I am hearing of it.

He is friends with Jalen, but they aren't ride or die or anything.

His parents aren't saying shite. He isn't saying shite.

He has had equal visits from Bama and LSU.

If Brennan shows last season wasn't a fluke offense, he will definitely come to LSU. I base that on nothing other than my feeling.

But Bama is going to press him hard, but so is O

I can say with full knowledge that this is 100% false.

The first time O came he talked to Coach Ricard, then spent time with Brian

The second time, the exact same thing but with Mahaffey.

People think that Saban showing up, means a player is a Bama lean.

Those people are just traumatized from the Miles years

Isn’t Mahaffey the head coach at Walker? I don’t think he was very Pro LSU when he was at U High...

Next time, see if you can find out on what dates Saban visited.

Yeah ,ok we believe O went to Walker and didn’t go see the player he is has the most interest in. Yet the midget was all over him. The days of Bama just walking in these kids schools or homes and kids being wowed to the point of wanting to commit on the spot without talking to LSU are long gone. Bama take over of Louisiana talent is over. Combination of Bama dominance being over and Saban being out worked by O is the reason. You have to bring your lunch pail to outwork O. And

Mahaffey's an LSU grad. He coached Brumfield and Brossette who were more open and signed with LSU where they started at some point in their careers.
