I see Johnny's strategy in play. Lock down Louisiana, but there is not enough elite talent in state. Cherry pick Texas and Mississippi, along with an occasional national player. And boom.



now we're cherry picking talent already? haha j/k - i'm excited too. sounds like a stellar pick-up

I said that's the strategy. Has to be implemented, though.

Already this staff is 1000x better recruiting wise than anything we've seen the last 10 years.

There are 5 threads going on about LSU hiring Kirby.

2 here, one in recruiting board, SEC recruiting board and SEC board. When is the last time that happened?

Hope it's true.

Johnny needs no advice from us on putting together a staff.
Excellent coverage in areas that have consistently produced basketball talent.

Every time we turn around there is more good news with the basketball team. I can't wait till JJ has been here a few years and big time recruits start rolling in.

Come on...where are all the "our AD didn't get the name coach we wanted, so we had to settle for JV coach like JJ". Oh, he's bring a bunch of JV assistant coach's with him. Oh, how much are we paying JJ and his assistants. As much as our last gas can TJ. Our AD is out of his mind for overpaying JJ and his staff.

I told you JJ would win almost all in the LSU nation over. JJ is going this rather quickly. Really proud of our old coach.
