I went to the St. George Tournament this weekend after the LSU meltdown against Texas AM.

Today it's SGS v. UHIGH for the final. According to UHIGH coach (Don Green's son- former Parkview coach) they are undefeated. They beat OLOM by 12 in the semifinal. SJS beat Runnels in the other semifinal easily. In the 3rd place game OLOM beat Runnels by 15. I tried to ask the coaches their records. St. Jude has lost 3 games, SJS has lost 3 including blowouts to UHS and one to OLOM at Sacred Heart. STM has lost 3 games. Those coaches weren't sure of their overall records. Sacred Heart hasn't won a game. OLOM is 10-1. They were missing their head coach Fisher because his dad died- Nathan Fisher- who they told me was a well known and popular lawyer in town. However- I don't think it would have made any difference. The assistant coach wasn't sure if Coach Fisher would be back but he said he thinks it might be next week sometime if at all. That's about everything I could find out. There were some good games even in the consolation bracket. Very competitive. Many of the winners bracket games were not close. It looked like to me- and I don't know them well enough- SJS had a very easy time to the final game while the other side had Catholic-OLOM-St. Jude and UHIGH. CHS coach thought they had lost 2 or 3 games but was unsure of their total record. If anybody has better information please post and keep everyone updated. I'm starting to see that this CSAL is a really big deal in the Catholic community in Baton Rouge and the surrounding areas.

Had Miles won only 25 games instead of 100; not won a NC and played in another; and sent many kids into the NFL- he would have been fired a long time ago.

I had a bit of trouble and Nathan Fischer helped me get it totally off my record. He was expensive but worth every penny. He told me how he represented Jarvis Landry during the big fight at Shady's a few years ago and he wasn't arrested or anything.

When he ran the ball on Friday: he ran THROUGH a wood be tackler. It reminded me of Hershel Walker running over Bill Bates in his first game at Georgia.

I thought he had broken the poor kid's neck.


Amazing for a high school kid.

After reading the article; some of it probably goes on everywhere: including Vandy and Notre Dame and Stanford.

Saban used to bully people to ensure grades were OK for the kids to play.

DiNardo did the same thing. Cecil Collins could not write....but he could expose himself to classmates.

If you read all of it; its hard to tell what constitues fraud and what just might be poor policy and decision making.

Correct; Archer was a bad recruiter. He was probably too young (34) to be LUS coach especially when the 2 other finalists were: Suprrier and Sam Rutigliano of NFL fame....

With all that talent; I hope they win a championship.

As an alum its good to see the football program being elite again; like the early 80's to early 90's

What I have seen is that he doesn't call plays- he merely says- "run" or "pass".

I think he probably calls the trick plays specifically.

Baton Rouge sports radio talk is a joke. I think anyone from Tiger Droppings that is literate could do their job just as well.

Depends on the lawyer. For something like this, there are certain lawyers that can assist better than others. I have never heard of his lawyer. That isn't a jab at her professional acumen, its simply reality that some lawyers know how to navigate a bit more.
