    Tashawn Bower, a 6-5, 240-pound
    defensive end from Immaculata, ended an
    unpredictable recruitment Wednesday by
    signing a national letter of intent to play
    for Louisiana State University.

    ...

    "With the great relationship I have with
    the LSU coaching staff, (defensive line
    coach Brick) Haley, coach Miles, and
    everyone there, I felt really comfortable
    at campus," Bower said.
    "For my future goals, I feel I have the best
    opportunity to fulfill them at
    LSU."
    Bower said the decision did not come
    easily.
    "It was really a last-minute thing but you
    have to go with your gut feeling and
    I think going to LSU will be the best thing
    for me," he said. "This morning I thought
    maybe Florida, then LSU, and back and
    forth all throughout last night and this
    morning. You have to follow your heart,
    and this is where my heart led me."
    Asked when he decided:
    "About two minutes before I walked in (to
    the library). I thought I would know a
    week ago but I didn't, I wasn't ready. I
    didn't feel I has a whole-hearted
    decision for either school. Now I do, I feel
    a lot better, and I'm ready to go."

    tweets from Times Picayune sportswriter Jim Kleinpeter

    --Miles: Bower he's that guy that potentially steps on the field very quickly.

    --Miles: Bower was a tremendous get for us...I don't know if we'd feel as good about this class with out him.

    David Gladow of The Times-Picayune:

    "a tremendous motor and work ethic will likely make Bower a fan favorite before his Tigers career is over"

    Miles on Bower:

    "I’m honored to coach him. ... he’ll be a great addition to our team. ... in fact he’s that guy that potentially steps on the field very quickly. I wouldn’t be surprised if he were to play in every game ... I don’t know that I would have felt as good about this class if we had not had Tashawn.”
