Geaux Nick and staff! Another #1 recruiting class for the Tigers! Difference between Mack and Nick??? Nick wins the NC in January and again in Feb.
LSU should have a Top 5 class again. The reduced numbers signed is because of their youth as a team. Every need of "THE" program looks to have been met outside of OT ... but we're not done ... Lemming will ratphffucke LSU as usual, gotta love it ... just another unbelievable recruiting year for the rising star of College FB and getting to be par for the course ... LSU hires a former NCAA College FB compliance officer ... WTF? ... the future looks so bright ... we gotta wear ... shades X-MAS Top to Bottom LIST (33) WR, Early Doucet----------------->LSU, Miami WR, Xavier Carter---------------->Miami, LSU, FLA DT, Glenn Dorsey----------------->Committed to LSU DT, Claude Wroten--------------->Committed to LSU SS, Craig Steltz------------------->Committed to LSU CB, Marcus Walker--------------->FSU, LSU, OKLA OL, Ryan Miller-------------------->Committed to LSU SS, Tony Bell----------------------->GA, Tennessee, LSU DT, Darryl Richard----------------->LSU, Miami, ND, GT OL, Calvin Darity------------------>FSU, LSU, Neb, NC, Tenn.

The OT need could be met with Jason Watkins and Herman Johnson very nicely. The train is getting very full. There is alot of good players out there who we will not be able to take.
I'm really not worried about Early going anywhere but LSU...Hank Tierney(sp?) of West Jefferson and formely of Shaw was quoted as saying "I have yet to see Saban lose a recruit he actually wanted." Marlon Favorite, Luke Sanders, and Early Doucets and pretty close locks to LSU, IMO...
Yup ... it'll all be over by X-mas ... just unannounced. I see 26-28 signed, depending on the # of early nfl birds. What a fine X-mas present for LSU fans!:geaux:
I would like to see scholarships saved for Marlon, Early, and Luke no matter how long it takes to sign them. If they sign by Christmas, that would be great. I don't see top recruits committing that early in the game, however.
Notes: LSU is the only SEC West school ranked in Rival's top 25. I'm sure Tubbygate will have some impact on Aburn's recruiting. Also, Florida, at least as of now, is not ranked in Rival's top 25.
I don't see why everyone thinks Xavier Mitchell is so great. I have seen him play and he is good, but not great. He is not the best player on his team, much less county. He is listed at 6'4 and 245, but is really about 6'2 220.
