Scike also said that Saban would never achieve the amount of success that he saw at LSU ever again.

scike's hs must have had some beef with the Rayne Grain folk

LSU had strong interest in Jordan Batiste, Darion Monroe, Kedrick Banks, and Lorenzo Doss. Those four were definitely recruited by LSU. Frank Wilson was on Banks hard.

Tulane is owning Frank with dudes LSU doesn't offer.

Banks was a very good ATH, but on the short side to play WR, CB, etc... I believe LSU offered as a walk-on... Doss had better soph/jr seasons, but had a mediocre sr yr that hampered any chance at LSU, so both choose Tulane...

Did a quick scan of those 4 players on the services. Talk about "sleepers"...these guys are "comas". Not in the LA Top 40 by Rivals...Not in the LA Top 100 by 24/7. I'm not saying the services are gospel but those guys have bad offer lists and aren't even significant to make services lists.

Thanks but no thanks...over and out on these comas! Funny response BTW.

Only 1 commitment from New Orleans and that kid is from Slidell.

Tulane is really making in-roads right now and we need to be aware of what is going on in our backyard. The last time we wiffed this bad was when Gerry Dinardo went looking for every kid under the Sun in Texas and LSU went belly up.


Dinardo recruited New Orleans hard and opened some doors there. You are describing Mike Archer.

Actually you are correct. I stand corrected it was Mike Archer who recruited elsewhere.

I'm guessing you've discovered the flaws in your original post by now. Feel free to edit

Yup. Don't forget that's where the Holmes hire came out.

Did serve one useful purpose for me. I hadn't checked Toolame's verbals in a long time. Almost every single of them has 1 offer...the Green Ripple.

On the over/under on whether Toolame will even be recruiting in 3 years/i.e. having an existing football team, I'm taking the UNDER!

Well, it wouldn't be the first time you would be wrong now would it?

Curtis Johnson will turn that program around. He will not get the prospects LSU wants but he will get some that Miss st/Ole Miss/aTm want which again is good for LSU.
