re: 24/7 vs On3 Class of 2021

I would have looked only at players where the two services were significantly discrepant, like high-4 star versus 3 star. Then I would have found which service tended to err on false positives (busts) or false negatives (missed gems).
I think mine is the most time-saving way.

At the very least Aaron can tell folks that the grass isn't always greener two states east of us.

re: LSU Lakes Renovation to Begin July 2023
Posted by ArcticCat on 6/30/22 at 7:45 pm
These lakes have left such fond memories for me. When I first arrived on campus in 1969, I couldn't believe what a great campus, due in large part to the nearness to these lakes. I got around on a bicycle the entire time (5 years) at LSU. I held a part time job at the Pak'a Sac near the Provost Volvo dealership overlooking one of the lakes. (I believe the dealership is gone.) When I got married as a grad student, my wife and I spent much time walking/cycling the area because we simply couldn't afford other kinds of recreation.
If I could contribute a little bit to the beautification of the lakes, I wouldn't hesitate to do so.

An Academic All-Big Ten, transferring to LSU for academics.... Cool!

Because of the great distance away from campus (I live in Toronto) I follow WBB most closely, listening to the game and wait for any video highlight. I check the gymnastics and softball scores and highlights.
When I was a student in the early seventies only entertainment was attending various teams: football, basketball (M&W), baseball, tennis (M&W), and track in that order. Gymnastics and softball weren't around then.
My grown sons still wonder why Dad is still an LSU fan 50 years after graduation.

Lots of LSU connection in Toronto! Living in Toronto, Blue Jays/Raptors/Leafs are big. And there are lots of LSU alumni here, and I'm in class of 71. I consider myself one of the biggest Tiger fans north of the border.
re: Is Flaujae Johnson only 5'-10"? she looks 6'-2"
Posted by ArcticCat on 4/16/22 at 10:12 am
She looks really dynamic and with the ball in her hands, she can just take over a game, either shooting the ball or get the ball to capable scorers like Morris. I'm hoping we get an active post transfer in Martinez.

Didn't Crews play RF and DiG play CF last year? What made the coach switch their positions this year?

LSU isn't a blue blood program, but it is still a name brand, thanks to Maravich, Shag, Pettit, Abdul-Rauf.... If MM could recruit well for Murray State, I predict he'll recruit higher quality players at LSU than he was getting at Murray State.
His players following him to LSU has given me much optimism going forward.

Of course Kim is a great Xs & Os coach. But I personally believe that it is her ability to motivate and inspire her team that distinguishes her from her peers. Her players love her and would go through a wall for her.
What example of great leadership!

I imagine having "made it" to becoming a part of the establishment, it is no longer expedient to hold on to Critical Race Theory.

I agree that risks are lower with college linemen transfers than with high school signees. To extend the logic, risks should be even lower with NFL draftees than college transfers.
But risks remain whenever the level of competition changes. On top of that, injuries, personal issues, motivation and such make this an inexact science.
