Burnt ROUX: Carlos Henderson

"Has shown versatility, especially in the passing game as a receiver, but has been primarily a workhorse running back at McDonogh 35. Henderson committed to Utah in October, 2012, where his brother stars as a kick and punt returner. Henderson earned that honor again (11/13/2012) after racking-up 117 receiving yards and two touchdowns to go along with his 53 rushing yards and a 97-yard kickoff return for a touchdown. Also earned a spot on the All-New Orleans Area large schools team as a return specialist and All-District 9-4A team as a running back (12/15/2012). One of the fastest players in the state, Henderson is a threat every time he touches the ball. Once on the next level, Henderson could make an immediate impact in the return game. He grades out well as a wide receiver, but he has the skill set to play corner if coached into the position. He is a very solid football player and the style of play in the PAC-12 Conference fits him well."

Who cares about a fence? Go out and get the best players regardless of where they are from.

This year the LA crop was not one of it's best. The next year or two will have great LA classes so we'll need to hit the state strong next year.

That will not hurt this year, but over time if our coaches do not develop relationships with instate high school coaches, then we might get burned later as quality players are directed elsewhere.

Also, it is much cheaper financially to provide scholarships to instate students.

We do need more local kids. Shame on the HS coaches in the area for not pushing their quality eligible players to come to UL. Why do you think the HS coaches have (generally) done such a terrible job of helping these kids see the merits of playing in front of friends and family?

For the top players, it has NOTHING to do with family and firends... Just saying.
