Official Ragin Cajun Football Early Signing Day Thread for 2018

[CajunAmos]

Update on QB Stetson Bennett! He will be enrolling at UL as a preferred walk-on in January and earn a scholarship. He will get some academic money as well to help. Also Chandler Fields will not be enrolling early, he will report after graduation.

Why not info on him on 247 other than interest from three schools (Mass., Kent State, Samford)?

Well, you're talking about upgrading our talent as if its a sure thing. I think we've all learned that this stuff is far from an exact science. I'm not doubting that there is cause for excitement but I'll temper my expectations until we've had a chance to see them in action.

Everybody knows this. Why ____ on the parade? First step is signing a class that is rated high. It's not the only step, but it's the first step. And our coaches just hit it out the park. Be happy....

Fair enough.. dont be afraid to smile though 😀

Agree.. Today is a day for smiling... Of course it will all be determined on the field but today I am smiling

Looks like we may have lost Sam

Well, unless someone is covering UP for 247 how would they know. You guys do understand if some is not running and writing articles on UL, they have no inside source with the program right? They care very little about the programs like UL.

What about Kevin Barnett, WR out of Oak Grove in Hattiesburg? UL was at the top (according to 247) of his list for quite awhile.

Another UL recruiting update: Jahmal Sam, DB who committed to the Cajuns a while back, just said he will not be signing until February; Sam did not respond when asked if it he's still committed to UL, but did say he has no academic issues

According to his 247 page he as offers from us, NWST, Duke, Indiana, ULM, Marshall, Ole Miss, SoAL, Troy, UAB, and UTSA. He is "Cool" on all except us and NWST. Hmmmmmmmmmm.

What's really odd is his has a 247 composite score of 0.8366, national rank of 1454, 173 at his position, and 42 in MS. His 247 ranking only is even higher. I'm guessing it has to be grades?

We saw what they did with what they had this year.

Why should we not expect and be excited about what they could do with what they now got.

I'm curious about the Keon Jean-Batiste listed. Why don't you find his name anywhere on 247?
