It's so nice to finally beat out a Utah State and Houston for a kid rather than 'stealing" them away from Nicholls and Southeastern !!!

The fact that Clarke said he could see himself settling down in Lafayette after basketball says a lot to me. Our coaching staff makes a hell of an impression. Give these guys some more time and the sky is the limit.

Lafayette is a great place. It's always translated into great recruiting in basketball and re spring sports, not so much in football
