re: If you haven't checked out the lsu recruiting board.

I am a Catholic and believe it or not Louisiana’s Catholic population amounts to only 1/3 of the total. You may be onto something I would assume it would take somebody to actually study the way in which Catholics deal with distress over the other denominations. Despite what the OP has to say about Louisiana and its fans we are basically a happy people even though we realize that we are a poor state. But our spirit is strong and yes we are passionate about all things.
