Now just piss off. M. Hill was a 2000 recruit. That is almost ancient history in college football terms.
You might as well dig into the 80s and 90s
clearly most people missed the entire point of my post. i was referring to history like last 30 years, not just 2000's.

The OP is not mistaken. I agree with the point he's trying to make which is that the inner city Nola kids don't come up dreaming of playing for LSU, nor is there any loyalty in their family to LSU unless their parents attended LSU (e.g. Beckham). Most of these kids grow up dreaming of playing for "flashy" schools like Miami, Fla. State, USC, etc. because they see those schools as the "cool place to be". Coincidentally, these schools are also the most pervasive in hip hop culture (I'm not being racist it's just a part of the demographic). The kids also see these schools as an oasis long away from their underprivileged upbringing in Nola. Many just want to GTFO of Nola and LSU's proximity isn't far enough away to satisfy that want. That, coupled with the non-established loyalty to LSU, leads them to follow these "faux" dreams out of state.
Frank Wilson is an invaluable member of our staff at this time. But unfortunately even he can't overcome the above for every single kid we want from Nola.
someone gets it
Well, then you explained your position horribly if this was the point to get.

We are all Tiger fans. Good discussion. Maybe something good will come of it.

he went more in depth. most of you can't even get your f'n facts straight so arguing anything is moot.

Once LSU starts to win again
???
LSU has won 95 games in 9 seasons. The "average" Les Miles season is 9.5 - 2.5.
When has LSU "stopped" winning since 2000?

let me rephrase that. Look dominant consistently with a legit offense. Aside from this year we have had dogshit on O since 07
Beat Alabama and continue to beat Tamu

Man, you had difficulty in just getting your position and point of view out. Next time, have the other guy post more.

well it was a pretty ridiculous point. This coaching staff has done great in New Orleans. Anyone who bashes Frank Wilson is a retard.
