Louisiana coach Rickey Bustle and staff have put together an impressive recruiting class.

LAFAYETTE — Louisiana's football coaching staff has no intention of ending its recruiting season early.

But if the Cajun staff called a halt to its efforts right now — almost two weeks before the Feb. 5 national signing day — it would still be considered a successful recruiting season.

The season has already paid tangible benefits to the Ragin’ Cajun program, with eight new faces already enrolled for the university’s spring semester and slated to take part in spring drills with the returning members of the Louisiana squad.

That group includes six junior college players who were Cajun mid-term signees, and two high school players who, because of special circumstances, could enroll immediately and get a jump on their prep brethren.

“It’s a huge advantage for guys to be here in the spring,” said Cajun head coach Rickey Bustle earlier this month. “They get a chance to learn the system, and they get to know their teammates and start building chemistry with each other.”

Brown must be a saftey at 6-3 205

Z,

It seems alot of schools are after McCray so if he has not changed his mind (and I have not heard anything saying he has) it will still be tough to keep him on board but I think we can. I seem to remember hearing he is visiting this weekend but could be wrong.

On a different note, it was good to see that

Rashon Brown, LB, 6-3, 215, Shreveport-Captain Shreve
Jarvis Murchison, DB, 5-9, 175, Jasper, Texas-Jasper

are enrolled and may be eligible this fall. According to many, these two (along with Babb) were our best recruits last year.

Geeze, I hate losing these guys. Once we improve, I'm sure this will happen much less.

Good news about Murchison and Brown.

Thanks, Z.

According to Dallas Morning News Devin is the 4th best quarterback in the State of Texas in a year where they are quarterback rich.

Considering all posititons combined he is ranked as the 51st best player overall in their "State Top 100"

Devin Williams was also recruited by Kansas State and Utah super hard. The kid had a great visit here and is good enough to be our #2 QB if Rekeita can't come back.

Supposedly, Ken Haynes the JUCO DT might have committed as well.

Devin Williams. Come on down! Man! I wish it was signing day today!



Geaux Cajuns!!!!
Hustle up and Bustle up!!!!

[Crowley Cajun]

Coach Bustle's staff deserves a round of applause. Here it is, 01/23/03, and we are excited about the upcoming season as if it will start tomorrow. Comparing this staff to the previous regime is like night and day. From secrecy to EXCITEMENT! In Bustle's first year, I was looking for an attitude change in the team. I saw it. This year, I was looking at what kids, that major programs would go after, would even consider us. I've seen it. If they sign and we have a good year, it surpasses this year's expectations for me. Man! it's great to be a Cajun!


Oh, by the way......
The Superbowl is this weekend. Just a note.
