1. LSU needs another punter in the 2010 class to take over after Helton and Jasper are gone in 2011.

    Chris Sailer Kicking has him ranked #12 in the Nation, and Kohl's Kicking has him ranked 7th in the Nation.

    Check out the enormous hang times on these punts. Pretty unusual for a high school punter.

    This kid loves LSU.

    I hope he gets his offer.
  2. This is not important at all in the grand scheme of things but Ginsburgh sounds like a jewish name. So whether or not it's true, can anyone name other Jewish athletes that played any sport at LSU?

    During the Dale Brown era, I know we had Willie Sims, aka the black jet. He was from NYC and played in the Meccabiah games in Israel.

    Anyway, I wasn't thinking far enough ahead about punters, It seems like only yesterday Derek Helton committed and now he's graduating. :)
  3. I was about to post this Izzy, glad it is up.

    Kid comes from a good family and would love for him to end up a Tiger.

    He attended the 1st Junior Day and is getting interest from a few SEC schools among others.
  4. Leslie Klein was a softball star a few years ago. And then there is this J. Stanley Bertman fellow in baseball . . .
  5. Skip Bertman...oy!
  6. I completely forgot about Leslie being Jewish and I we work together.
  7. Ginsburg's high school is now a co-ed Catholic one. Back in my hs days - 50s - very few non-Catholics bothered to attend Menard/Providence as they were all-male/all-female. My two oldest sisters graduated from Providence.

    I attended Bolton with a guy named Ginsburg and he was an athlete.

  8. Jonathan was nominated by PrepStar Magazine as a Preseason All-American.

    He has been invited to the Spring game by Les Miles personally.
  9. Just out punted the #2 Punter in the country at the Wisconsin camp and won Most Outstanding Punter. Will be in for LSU's kicking camp this summer as well. I am sure we are taking a punter in this class and I am pulling for this kid to get an offer during/after the camp.

  10. :geaux: Being from Cent. La. I'm always happy to see the local kids succeed. I'm pulling for Jonathan to be a Tiger. :LSU231:
