I think, and have zero reason to believe, we will pull one of these.


Jackson and Carter are going elsewhere. Those two are for sure. Derrick Kelly is a guy we badly need but it sure sounds like UF has stolen him from us. Kenny Young sounds like he wanted OOS and also wants to play MLB so...

If we lose Dupre and Young(which I really don't think we will get) and the other in state guys we already lost that is not good. How can a power house like LSU lose big time in state recruits. This would mean we have lost, Robinson, Jones, Noel, Dupre and Young.

That in itself would be mind blowing considering the level that LSU is at right now.

I think we finish

1)Dupre
2)young
3)Valentine
4)Tuehema
5)Trey L
6)Porter

Really want kelly in this class to fill all the needs. Didn't feel good about him when he didn't commit on his visit. Felt that way with Brown when he resisted to commit early. When they are thought to be leans and don't commit, it's a sign.

What makes you certain about Carter? By reports, his visit was pretty good. I have very little hope of getting him but I wouldn't be using any absolutes yet.

We actually had a great chance at landing Carter thanks to Brick. A better shot than most gave us credit for. But it was too little too late unfortunately.

Give me this plus Trey L and I'll be grinning from ear to ear on NSD. I don't think we get both Dupre and Porter though.

Is it just me are is anyone else a little nervous about NSD with the remaining guys.


Dupre and Valentine are already committed. Up in the air about Young and Kelly, and doubtful for Carter and Jackson.

I saw a post somewhere saying that Adoree called LSU coaches before he went to UCLA.

Why would he do that?

This is such bull shite. Do you really think that recruits give a flying frick what the fans think. If they do then they are in for a rude awaking in a game called life. If these recruits really wanted to be part of what we have at LSU then they would come. It has nothing to do with what you said.

I am sick and tired of hearing this bull shite. LSU is no different then any other major college football program in the country when it comes to fans. frick I am tired of hearing this. It is like LSU fans drive these players away from this program.



Yeah that's exactly what happens.

Recruits are fans. Recruits have family members that are fans. You think these kids don't have family members and friends that like to trash the coaching staff just like a lot of people on here do? That's the culture that's been created and if you think it has no effect on their decision making then you're mistaken. How can it not affect them?

You may not want to hear it but the majority of these recruits come to play for the coach. If no one around them respects the coach, then why should they? And speaking from someone that went to school OOS, you're wrong. Every major college football program is not the same. The level of entitlement with the LSU fanbase is rivaled by few programs.

I still hate you. I mean Adoree hates you.

It doesn't help, bu I agree with you. The impact of bitchy fans (and every fan base has them) is way overblown on this board. It's just what happens when you have a competitive and passionate group of people sometimes.
