Cajuns showing interest in Josh Brister

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!!!

Cant lose if you don't offer.

We didn't lose on him, we passed on him.

I don't want a buch of overblown stats going out over the air waves. And I'll tell you guys now, we're getting love & in some cases plenty of love by more than one. But I'm not getting the kind of assurances where I was hoping, that won't cause me to have to reup my son in a certain camp some 50 miles to the east of here. That is very disappointing to me. 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.

We didn't lose on him, we passed on him.

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

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

Hear, hear!!

You forgot one.

[Boomer]

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

----Obviously YOU don't know what I am referring to-----I was hoping that we could possibly get him in track or as a football walk on---The kid is a great athlete but too small to play college ball at about 255 but he is about 6'3"---So your comment about our coaches and my thinking their judgement is poor is way off base----How about next time not rushing to judgement and just ask!!!! Why isn't LTUR worthy of my rear view----When I find out facts about these schools and whether they are good or bad I will report them as I hope others on here would do---They are our enemies and if it is good for them it is bad for us and likewise in the opposite position

[angeleast]

Boomer has a point. I like knowing how our opposition/enemies are doing in the battle of funds, renovations, etc. Gives me a good measuring stick to judge our progress.

---Yes it is a very good measuring stick and I think that our stick is now longer than those schools---Very competitive but OH what strides we have made!!!

Kyle...your son will be a center in college.
