Because the northeastern US is producing more and more talent every year out of the high school ranks and this gives kids in that region a chance to watch LSU without paying hundreds of dollars for a plane ticket ?


I like your recruiting mind. AND I like the post about LF7 getting a chance to see NYC before December

Tigers went to Morgantown and came out alive. Syracuse is ACC now and probably a better alumni trip than Morgantown. Isn't Syracuse a Catholic school?

There's this thing called television. They even have it on the Internet now. Pretty cool stuff.

Rashan Gary wanted to see his favorite team close to home.

Find something based on participation in high school football. The population can not change at all, or even decline, and it doesnt really matter. If more kids are playing football, by proxy you will have more talent.

Not saying I have any numbers to back it up or anything, just that lately it seems like there have been a lot more high-profile players coming out of that region. Wasn't Minkah Fitzpatrick from around there? I know Rashan Gary and Jabril Peppers were.

Thought we were talking about NYC recruits like Gary being able to watch the game. Didn't realize we were talking about Fournette visiting NYC, which is obviously a stupid thing to say.

That's shameful


We tried to schedule ULM but they had already scheduled another SEC team against whom they have had success.

It'll be a good opportunity for the alumni in the Northeast to see the Tigers play. Over the past 15 years, we've only traveled along the east coast as far as the WVU (2011) and Virginia Tech (2002) games. It'll be a great opportunity for recruits in that area to commute via train/car to see them play as oppose to flying to the south and doing so. Lastly, 'Cuse are an ACC team now and fulfills the obligation of a P5 non-conference team on our schedule.

This year is one of the more lackluster schedules we've had in awhile, but we do have some good neutral site games and home-and-home games with BYU, Miami, UCLA, Texas, and ASU coming up.
