Recruiting to LSU football with the insane facilities and instate talent is ENTIRELY different than recruiting to LSU basketball with average facilities and average instate talent.

Average talent is good enough to finish in the top four of the SEC.

He is really young for the spot and I would worry about his lack of recruiting ties to the area.


I don't want a coach with ties from LA. He has most recently recruited the biggest talent pool areas in basketball on the east coast. That's the ties I want a coach to have.

Louisiana has never had a talent problem with any major sport. We've had problems keeping the talent at home. We've also been unfortunate to have recent coaches who either didn't recruit or couldn't coach. Louisiana may not be as deep as the north east, but talent has never been a problem.

Just have to keep the few really goods on campus longer than 1 year to have a complete team and with a good bench.

Our in state talent is pretty salty.

Its not Atlanta or New York or something like that, because we don't have a major urban center like that.

But if we got guys like Greg Monroe, Chris Duhon, DJ Augustine, etc. ever year, we'd be in the NCAA's every year.

Not to mention lesser know guys like Langston Galloway from Baton Rouge who is in the NBA or guys like Rico Gathers.

This year we lost Josh Anderson to fricking WKU. Just last year we lost the top 4 recruits to other schools. All 4* guys.

DeJon Jarreau - UMass
Robert Williams - TAMU
Mark Vital - Baylor
Lamar Peters - MSU
