The Book: UL Football Recruiting 2006

[Cajun Express]

I don't like his dads article either. Sounds like he wants his son to go to LSU too bad. Maybe one of those, "I wish I would have gone to LSU" articles lol.

Glad he's coming to UL. The more locals that come and establish themselves in our program the better.

His dad is fine. What the fxxk? The young man has committed. Jake Delhommne was wanting a Tulane offer which to their eternal regret did not come.

I got a little upset last night about our recruiting. Let me explain...I was talking to my good friends brother who plays football at Comeaux High School and he was telling me that Trae Fitzgerald (OLB) has not been offered by UL and that this is the only school he wants to go to. He is a great player and I have seen him on many occasions and never been disappointed. I have talked to a lot of different people who see him as being equal or having even more talent that Jacob Cutrera who is a verbal comment to LSU. I would say that trea is about 6'0 210 and is a great student.

Believe me when I say I trust our coaches and think they have done a great job of recruiting and turning this program around but I hate seeing players in our own backyard being passed on.

Contact the UL staff and let them know that they may be overlooking a great player in their back yard. If they fail to do anything, it means they have someone they think is better at that spot. That does not make them right, it only means that is what they think. Every year there are players drafted to the NFL that nobody thought could play 1A footballl.

I watched the game against Acadiana High and Fitzgerald was not in the same class as Cutrera.Acadiana also used Cutrera in different ways,especially
blitzing him with different looks.Fitzgerald is a good athlete and should have a shot at playing at a state school. The Cajun squad already has several athletes at linebacker in the same mold 6-0,215. They are looking for some help at MLB and that's why he has not been offered.

Whenever you have a local product that is very good, you can not afford to let good local players go someone else. I believe they could find a place for him.

UL, the school i lovve so much has been lacking on recruiting for a long time, one guy a while back, late 80's-early 90's they didn't offer, played in the nfl and is in the cfl now, his name is kerry joseph and he is a very good family friend of mine, UL should look at all the talent at Westgate High School in New Iberia, I Garuntee that if they had a decent coach, they would have atleast went to shreveport and would have given west monroe a ____ of a game, in my opinion Gavin Simon who plays linebacker is better than Cutrera and Fitzgerald, he's just not as TALL......but i promise you, if anyone on this forum has the power to go and recruit someone, go to westgate high.......nothin but talent (randall antoine #8, jared mitchell #3, gavin simon #52, quentin pierre #4, craig brodie #7, marcus benjamin #31, willie ?? #10(new guy, transfer from port arthur, tx), derek mitchell #32)

Great job recruiting! What kind of dope are you smoking man. ULL has the worst talent in the country.

Countless loosing seasons and no bowl games later.....where is the turnaround.

I think this kid, Trea Fitzgerald, can go and play ball at a 1-AA school and get a better education and have a better chance at playing in the NFL.

Looks like it is that time again

Matt Desormeaux, FB, New Iberia
Tyler Albrecht, PK, STM
Ian Burks, OL, 6-3, 260, Denham Springs

Why did these guys not go to a 1-AA school. Or I guess they wanted to stay close to mommy.

Honestly Ian Burks, from Denham Springs seem to have the size and height to play ball elsewhere.
