Yet Another GREAT Recruiting Class by Les Miles and Staff

@LSUfball recruiting Frank Wilson: "DL was a pressing need for us...and we feel like we've done ourselves justice. We hit a home run!"

 

Sure there's a reason to move it. We are doing a great disservice to some of our fellow posters by leaving it here, displayed so prominently. The cognitive dissonance, alone, is reason to move it. Our mental health system is woefully underfunded and understaffed, and I don't believe it can handle the influx that will be undoubtedly generated by those who are having to reconcile their tremendous dislike/hatred of all things Miles, their firm belief that, because of LSU's horrible past seasons (only one BCS champioinship and two SEC championships in the lat five years, and only one of the five best W/L records in the counrty) LSU's recruiting will take an immediate and drastic hit, with the fact that we have yet anothe top ten, and possibly top five recruiting classes.



Sort of like those people who insist that Obama is a socialist, or worse yet, a communist, in spite of the fact that, corporate profits are at an all time high, the income disparity between the top 10% and the bottom 10% is at its worse since the times of the Robber Barrons, and the Dow Jones is at its highest since 2007.

I hate it when facts get in the way of my prejuices and biases.


But, I digress....

You heard it here. We have a GREAT running back in Havelock, NC, being pursued hard by the Ol Ball Coach.

We also are sending over a "Man among Boys 8th grader" this year...Good student, great kid...a few years, yet, but...keep an eye peeled in NC.

Looks like a great class.. I just want some games, where I can relax, prior to final tick!!!

 

Hey mister rules guy, calling out mods is against user policy.

I agree. Was shocked to see someone feel differently. Red has always said, "It's the off-season, there's a little more leeway" though this one would not even fall under leeway imo.

Troof. Recruiting to your needs is critical.

 

P.S. They do have other football forums. Since just about every post you make is laced with REAL negativity, maybe you need to go there.
