ROUX: Ragin' Cajuns add four commitments during weekend

[CajunGuru]

Sorry for the mispost RaginFan2. I don't read the Daily Advertiser so I didn't check out the article. Just was going by what was on Rivals.com. Looks like we picked up a GREAT Scholar Athlete for the university. Hopefully Rodgers can pass his Underwater Basket Weaving Classes this year.

You know, that is the type of comment that turns potential recruits off. He signed with UAB, was not eligible and there was no scholarship available after they filled. He sat out and is signing this spring after enrolling. He is doing the same thing COX did. Did Cox have to take a basket Weaving course? We have universities in this state that sign eight to ten athletes a year that sit out. Another that has had tutors take test for athletes, it's not this program.

Sounds like he may be a little better suited to support The Green Wave or Rice...

Guru,

With the remaining few schollies we have, what are your thoughts on who or what position will be offered?

I would like to see another OL and then the best available...

What have you been hearing about some of the locals still out there? Journet, Jacob, etc.

On Rivals.com it says that the DE Jermaine Rodgers Signed a Letter of Intent with UAB!! He had given us a Solid Verbal, but we all know that doesn't mean SQUAT until the pen and paper meet on a dotted line. Guess we're still hunting for a DE too!

From Rivals.com

"Acadiana standout defensive end/outside linebacker Wilfred Journet is drawing all kinds of junior college attention, Rams head coach Ted Davidson said. But D-IA's like Louisiana-Lafayette and Auburn are keeping close"

He is not "rated" by rivals; but we know that doesn't always mean anything.
I'll see what else I can find about UL recruits. I had seen info on pelicanpreps.rivals.com too.

Shof

Edited to add: schools interested are Clemson, Auburn, LaTech and UL.

Why don't you worry about those "Speed Humps" and the traffic increase, Mr. Neighborhood Watch!!

CajunDudu, Is Jermaine Rodgers a Brandon Cox?? No, not even close. You cannot make a comparison between these two athletes. As a student/athlete on the college level, I've been there and done that. Athletes get special privileges and there's no If's And's or But's about it. I've seen these guys before and 85% of them are just after the "Free Lunch" in the Union. Hopefully this guys pans out and turns into a decent student/athlete. But don't try to make a comparison to my boy Cox b/c he is a One of a Kind type of Guy. Bran, if you're reading this, You're Welcome. Just messing with you man.

I think our coaches are doing a good job with recruiting. I saw a few guys @ Hooters on Saturday and a few of them looked really solid.

Can't wait for football season.........Hope we have a great turn out at the Recruiting banquet!

I agree with you Scotto25, the coaches seem to be working overtime since a couple recruits have decided to "De" committ to LSU and some of the other big schools. Which means, we've gotta protect and watch our backs. We should have a pretty solid class coming in. I saw the recruits Saturday at Hooters and I spoke with Coach Wingerter and he seems Very Pleased. I think I might have saw you over there Scotto25, were you the one with the Black Oil/Dirt hands eating Buffalo Wings and licking your fingers?
