is there anyway that a recruit like buga or even a better one down the road only would sign if he got 18 do you think miles would let him have it, and if so would you approve?

No and no. You earn the number, it's not a handout to some diva recruit.

Ummm NO. It's like getting that cool C "Captain" sewed on your jersey. You earn that, you don't walk in and get that

I guarantee you if Leonard Fournette said I'll sign on the condition of wearing #18 my freshman year then he'd get that number. It's a complete hypothetical because Leonard isn't that kind of kid, but had it been "18 or I'm going to bama" then he would be wearing 18. Les mentioned Fournette at the 2013 recruiting banquet.
I know it's a special number at lsu, but you're kidding yourself if you think in this scenario he wouldn't have gotten the number. LF is the only kid I can think of in the last decade that Miles would do this for. I'm not saying he'd do it for any ol 5 star, but they had all their eggs in the LF basket, didn't take a back in the previous class to better their odds at Fournette

So 7 isn't earned and is a handout to diva recruits then?

7 is totally different. that's like when the yankees gave Jeter #2

Why would an LSU player want to have 18? thats Peyton Mannings number.

well i guess when your only tradition is a couple of dead trees you wouldn't understand

Well he announced his jersey number before he announced his college. Seems like LSU caved to his jersey demands to land him. You do what you have to do I guess, just seems like LSU would be above such tactics to land top NOLA prospects

Jeter demanded #2? Link? What was Jeter going to do, quit baseball?
