Louisiana gets commitment from Neville High's Mitchell

[CajunT]

The fact that neither Tech or Monroe offered him should tell you all you need to know. You can never have enough linemen though and maybe he will surprise.

Leger was hiding him while he was at ULM. He has an offer from them.

Smart move by Leger....

Wow. What a difference a coach makes on people’s outlooks. We have been getting recruits like this for a while with less than stellar results. Hope this staff can turn some of these lightly recruited projects into players.

Wrong Metry. We’ve cheered on lots of projects. The big difference is this kid needs 25 pounds of muscle instead of shedding 50 pounds if fat.

I'm betting winning is going to make you go away.

Can you give me some examples of kids being 50lbs overweight when they were recruited? Look, this is not a knock on the guy. Both of our OT’s were projects who put on significant weight to become viable D1 OT’s. Most of our LBs and DE fall in the same boat. This is not a new strategy for UL. I just hope it works better under this regime.

We also have 2 P5 OL coaches on this staff ..

Any ideas on what would?

Any ideas on what would?

Several... paying players, ticket packages that become as expensive as the Saints and someone on RP becoming AD.
