    Re: John Martinez

    Well the notion that this young man is a USC lock has been dispelled by none other than he himself.

    "LSU definitely has a legitimate shot in my mind to get me."

    Well, well, looky looky........

    Coming for an official to see the Georgia game. Nice.

    Given a thirty minute break, they could have beaten Georgia the same night they beat Ohio State.

    I wouldn't put too much stock into that. No doubt he likes LSU but even with those comments I think he is still a USC lock. I know his dad is all over the USC message boards.

    One time in Death Valley changes everything.

    Re: John Martinez

    I agree and that is why he still loves LSU. He was here last year for a game. He actually sparked the interest of Richard Wilson and Xavier Filo out of Utah because he was always talking about how great the expierence was.

    All 3 will be at the game together this season.

    Re: John Martinez

    I've seen this kid's visit list, or his alledged visit list. He's going to catch 5 very good games, go back and sign with USC. He has no intenton of giving LSU consideration. He'll be on a plane soon after the game.

    Sorry, just wish the LSU coaches reconsider & give his tickets to a player who is really interested in LSU.

    Miles knows his chances with Martinez and knows that he has helped LSU with the interest of Wilson and Filo. To go ahead and say do not come in for a visit but make sure your friends come would not be looked upon favorably considering we still have a great shot at Filo and Wilson.

    We have enough dough in the piggy bank to pay Martinez' way down for a trip, no worries. And like Brett said, a trip to Death Valley for a great football game can be a mind changing event.

    Re: John Martinez

    LSU, USC, UCLA are his final 3.

    Most likely USC.

    Re: John Martinez

    Says he might announce at the UA game. Also says LSU, USC and UCLA are all tied.

    Projects to play center. I would rather get Martinez over Su'a Filo because of him playing Center. We can keep Downs on the Dline, where he excels.
