Re: What HS's don't let their players communicate with UL??
If a high school did not allow UL to come in and talk to kids, and then a kid missed out on a chance to play ball, don't you think that would go public before it happened too many times?
The answer is YES.

He wasn't recruited for a scholly by d1 but lower classes offered however he chose UL since he was promised preferred walkon status. Then had that taken away twice. He is still a fan UL tho.
Again cajuns need to go after some of our d players. The 3 d linemen are solid with churphy steward likely to be 4 star next year.
Like you said, these guys need the grades first

Just want to bump for small family update, haha. I'm proud to say my cousin made it on the squad after tryouts this past week. He was among like 50 tryouts and I think 3 made it on the team. Like I said earlier, he had been offered preferred walk-on status at times his senior year, but they didnt have the room on the team at that time. He is completing his first year at UL and is maintaining TOPS. He tried out at QB since that was his natural position in at BBHS, but coaches said they hadn't decided where he will play, likely WR though. He is one of the first BBHS players in a while to be on the UL football team, even if it is practice squad or whatever level he gets up to in his career.

Congratulations to your cousin and good luck to him and the other walk-ons.

I know this kid and I think he can eventually help the Cajuns. I am not miffed that the Cajuns turned him away last year. They didn't have room for him. But now that they are giving him an opportunity, i think he will earn a spot and eventually contribute. He is a heck of an athlete... and a great student too.
