Thank you sir. It is very stressful. Because I know I'd love to see him come out of that tunnel & have Cajunhawk buy me a cold one out of respect to the boy. But you see the business side of it & realize that something that should be a natural fit might not come to pass. The UL coaches can't help it if they were smart & loaded the wagon during a great year for offensive linemen. I'll say this though. Josh is going both ways for the first time in high school for the whole season. He stoned Peabody's interior line in the spring game. They could do nothing against our defense. He's got a pal named Dylan Berry. Dylan is a heck of a player at inside tackle & the two of them will be the best pair of inside tackles in high school anywhere this season at any level. I guarantee life is gonna be hard for anybody trying to run the ball against LCA.

Congratulations on having a great athlete for a son. He is a very talented young man and I look forward to seeing him play at the next level.

He couldn't do it against VC---lol---you know I am kidding Kyle, but I wish we hadn't lost the Vallot kid to McNeese---I know we didn't offer, but he will do BB and track in LC!!! I didn't realize how good he actually was in track and I had coached his grandpa at St.Louis and UL!!!

Seriously.....lost him.....and then you say we didn't offer him? Guess you think our coaches are pretty poor for not offering?

This is getting old Boom. Time to move on and put McNeese, Tulane, and ULM in your rearview mirror. Please???

I surely didn't even want him to have to deal with that again. But I saw where he was last year with the best crop of Juniors in the region. And I can tell you I'll put him & his work ethic up against anybody anywhere in this country. He is a man. A very fast very agile man for his size. These are the facts.

6'4 5/8" tall 5.09 fastest 40 time so far. ( probably faster right now) 52" extra long jacket
296 pounds 4.81 second shuttle run 14 extra wide shoe
3.0 GPA 24" vertical leap 38" w X 36" L pants
24 ACT 96" broad jump XX large shirt
last highest bench press was 290 pounds 1st of May ( likely 25 pounds higher now)
Turned 17 in March. He is a left handed left tackle who has played on a championship calliber team his final year of competition at every single level since CAYSI.

Compare those combine stats to the top tackles coming out of college & going into the NFL draft & tell me what you come up with. He's a stud & there is no doubt. I'm just glad the milk man left plenty of milk to feed him this whole time. He has 4 star size, talent, skill set, and ability. The question is how much does playing in a single A district where the coaches are so chicken $h!+ they won't do the right thing just show they can hold a grudge keep him from being recruited heavily by the home town major university. You guys know where I stand & I'll tell you now, if I got the right word from the right people in a timely manner, I would NOT be sending him to Baton Rouge for lineman camp. But I have a feeling the new OL coach there won't allow to happen what the last OL coach allowed to happen to that football team. So I got a feeling he doesn't come out of BR this time without a buttload of hickies on his neck. Sorry fellas. I'd love to say I'm all in. But my son is gonna play somewhere on a scholarship. That's the only assurance he has of getting to really compete for a starting position one day. I have no control over the thoughts of the powers that be at certain places. I only know my boy loves Mark Hudspeth & Jay Johnson.

I'm looking forward to a plan coming together and hopefully for the greater good.

Now go buy a few cows, y'all never run out of milk or beef.

But the young man was an outstanding football player & a track star. Didn't he win state in the shot put?
