LSU dominates their in-state football talent like no other school. LSU gets 80 to 90 percent of their blue-chip talent on average, and I don't see Bama or any school ending that.

With Cam Cameron, LSU is about to start cherry picking offensive talent on a national level.

LSU's recruiting program has never been stronger--in-state or out.

With no major instate team competing with LSU for recruits, and with the national tradition and prominence that LSU reportedly has, those percentages should be higher.

I'm sorry that Bama is taking kids away from you.

That 80-90% figure of LA blue chippers that sign with LSU intrigued me. Assuming blue chippers are 4 and 5 star athletes, LA has total of 15 for 2014 per Rivals. LSU has 6 verbals, Bama has 3, and Arizona State has 1, leaving 5 uncommitted. LSU would have to snag those 5 uncommitted to get to 73% of LA's blue chips for this year. This seems to be a particularly strong LA class. If this percentage is simply an aberration, LSU picked a bad year to slack off on their efforts.

With that said, LSU should get most, if not all of those that haven't committed, but I know that we are in the mix for several. The next couple of months should be interesting.
