Can't believe something like that would be said about a young man who is trying to make one of the most important decisions in his life. Experienced coaches should know that a kid might visit, love the experience, tell them he knows he wants to go there but change his mind after an even more enjoyable experience.
The fan bases need to back off and let him make up his own mind. This does not need to turn into an unpleasant experience for Lache.

Born, Really enjoyed visiting with you at the game Friday night. It was great to see those kids get their first win of the season.

listening to that does not give me confidence that we will get Lache, Farrell's track record isn't really that spectacular.

He may have been wrong on TRichardson and Debose last year, but it wasn't his fault nor LSU's. We should have had Richardson for sure.

He's actually at the highest point in his career at making picks, IMO.

Glad I read the thread. I would have only given LSU even money with Lache recently but after reading this thread I feel much more confident again. This comes from some of the info posted in this thread... NOT from the video.

Negative rumblings coming from AU is certainly a great sign!

I want Lache first and foremost, but damn Nicholas Parker looks great too, really like his size, instincts, and explosive straight-ahead surge.

Blue looks small and really thin in the legs?

Nicholas Parker

He looked great taking the direct snap and running up the middle when they showed them on ESPNU a few weeks ago.
His size compared to other high school players is like Brandon Jacobs compared to other NFL players. He just looks too big to be playing running back!

I think Nick Parker and Lache will be a great asset to any team. Both are team players, Nick has waited to be the go to guy for his team and Lache never complains about getting only 13 - 15 carries per game. Both are just happy to help their team out when called upon. If LSU should be lucky enough to get both of them it would be a very potent backfield rivaling Hillard & James. JMHO.

As a member of the Auburn premium site, I can assure you that surprisingly, it has been quiet about Reed, Lache, and Dyer over the last few weeks. We had a big weekend last week for the WVU game. Reed, Dyer, and others were there, but for the most part the talk as of late was about our defense and lack of tackling. There has been no such talk of Lache and all that crap. Therefore, I have no idea what the poster who alluded to negative rumblngs is talking about. Heck, if ya'll get Lache, Reed, and whoever else, congrats. But as of a couple of weeks ago, and nothing has changed, I'm still loving our chances with Lache AND Reed. Unless someone else can tell me what has occurred within the last 2 weeks to substantiate this guy Farrell's opinion. Who knows???????????????? Long way til Feb.

Farell is one of the main National Recruiting Followers for Rivals. He has been wrong on some occasions, but I will take his word over an AU paysite anyday.

blue is a monster....strong legs...long torso makes him look a bit skewed. racked up 217 against lutcher last week. i know he had 3 first half tds tonight, but unsure of his final stats.

best senior back in the state. he is looking more and more like a tiger by the day.

you guys really just need to go see him. if he were in high school for a 4th season he'd be in the top 100. this is his first full year as the true starter. not a lot of time to grab the national spotlight, but he's a tough runner and a good fit for the tigers. i think the push for him will pick up by the end of october. rushing for over 8 yards a carry so far this year.

it would be a shame for us to let our best receiver and running back get away this year.

If he is a running back for South Panola high school..He has to be a BAD CAT...Guarantee Parker can play...That bunch from South Panola won something like 75 games in a row...Lost one to MUS and Barry Brunetti this year...Lots of great talent at South Panola..the only thing these South Panola kids seem to have a hard time with their grades..don't know the story on Parker..But I bet his a good back..
