Care to elaborate?

Overall, good points, but a lot of fail with this statement. LSU is BY FAR the ugliest campus of all the schools you mentioned. Not that LSU's isn't nice; it's just that those other three are awesome. Georgia used to be a lot like LSU but they improved dramatically by getting most parking and traffic off campus, plus they have rolling topography. Florida has always been a beautiful campus. And Clemson is just like Auburn - designed as a whole rather than piecemeal. All three notably beautiful. Anyway, who gives a shite about this?!

Good stuff.


We don't stay recruiting top classes annually by cooling off on people who we think we have no chance with. Go for it.

Kind of curious as to why LSU hasn't extended offers to any of the other uncommited OT's.

I'm sure that they're maintaining contact or keeping a lookout. Likely going top down.

Recruiting is starting to heat back up. Anyone that says we only need 2 OL are crazy.

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I seem to remember a lot of people saying their schools are backing of because of him wanting to play basketball as well. They're concerned that, with his frame and body, the things he needs to do in the gym and conditioning wise for both sports will conflict. Example being he needs to lose weight for basketball but gain weight for football. Something along those lines. Like I said someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I seem to remember this being mentioned.

I agree with that. I still think the main problem at LSU with the OL is the OL coaching but numbers have been an issue also. No other unit on the team has lost as many signees as the OL has either due to personal issues, career ending injuries, dissatisfaction leading to transfer, etc. My own opinion in general is you have approximately 25 scholarship per class and 24 positions if you include punter and kicker. Essentially, you need in recruiting to "field a team". Obviously, there are variations but 2 OL in a class is unacceptable IMO.
