What is it about the McKnight brothers that thy don't really show an interest about being associated with the state of Louisiana


More like how does JT Curtass continue to make his living in Louisiana and continue to point his players away from LSU?

as much as McKnight fumbles, Porter/Miles would have him on the sidelines

however, his ball security would be much better if he were at LSU...we clearly stress that out of our RBs and practice it

he dangles that ball out carelessly when he runs for the Trojans...most of his fumbles are careless and unforced

Most of his fumbles were on punt returns, which is why he was pulled. He only had a couple fumbles on carries last year. Well worth it considering he averaged almost 8 yards/carry. They've tried to clean up his ball security, which has been priority #1 with him and the coaches, but it really hasn't improved much

nah. CJ Gable should have been benched and split those carries between Joe and Stafon. CJ fumbles more than Joe does. Joe is also averaging more yards per carry and had way fewer negative plays than Stafon did.

he's very careless with the ball...it's no coincidence he puts the ball on the ground a lot

he needs to adopt the Tiki Barber method of holding the ball, but with his dancing style he probably never will...he loves to hold that ball out away from his body

meh. He racked up a bunch of yards on Washington and Wazzu. Against real teams he was average to bad. Joe was the only back who really did anything against the better teams on our schedule

Agreed,

Signed,

Chris Jackson
Jerry Sevin
Carnell Stewart
Jarrod Carter
Vernon Russell
Jason Spadoni


Realistically, the only guys in the last ten years that LSU has lost from John Curtis that they offered are McKnight and Ryan Watson.

(I don't think we offered Green, Smith or English.)

ETA: I think we also have a good shot at signing LINK

If we waste a stamp on this kid, it will be a mistake.

I hope he becomes a UCLA Bruin.

F Curtis...there is plenty enough talent in the state that LSU doesnt need to bend over for this egocentric school. If Mcknight is not interested then say "thanks" and move on. I know it wont happen, but I wish Les would just tell JT that LSU is done recruiting your school! JT has always been an arse. He aint gonna change.
