UL football gets 8 more recruits

[CajunDreDog]

Hell most of'em don't even know what they want to be when they grow up. Thats only 3 or 4 years away!

I don't know what I want to be yet when I grow up!

_ Man why are you all focusing on one guy... This article had me standing in my chair singing Fight On Cajuns........

"Griffin earned prep All-America honors for a team that was the mythical national champion by several organizations. Harris, a former Kentucky commitment, is regarded as one of the nation's top running backs. Quave and Hunter are ranked among the top 100 players in the country at their respective positions."

"According to Scout.com, Harris had offers from UL, Florida State, Kentucky, Louisville, Memphis, Mississippi State, Southern Miss and Tennessee"

"Jackson said Memphis and South Carolina State offered, while he received interest from Auburn"

"Southern Miss, Tulsa, Houston, Memphis, Louisiana Tech, ULM, Nicholls State, Southern, Grambling and Alabama State offered. LSU, Alabama, Mississippi State and Texas also recruited him.It was a great situation," Alsander said of UL"

Are you kidding me???? Is this UL???? This is what I have been screaming for years and years and its happening....

Hud said if I get them here they ain't leaving without committing (paraphrasing of course)... Dude aint lying.....

Finally we are on our way.... I am looking forward to football this year but just think in 3 years or so we several classes like this.... _

I agree with you. I guess I don't understand how people think they have the right to call and or text a recruit to quiz them on their decision. That seems, at the very least, nosy and unethical. If I were a recruit I would tell people I don't know to take a hike and don't call me I'll call you. Personally, I am thrilled that we got ALL the recruits that commited this weekend and I think the negative people should sit down and shut up!

Well, none of this really means anything until those kids put pen to paper next week!!

_ Josh, my experince with Alsander was the same as yours. He text me he was on the road but had committed. We exchanged a few text after that....comments on his visit and agreed we would talk after lunch on the phone. Didn't hear from him so I called him later Sunday afternoon, and he didn't answer....I left him a message and sent him a text last night. He has returned any phone calls to you, me or the Adovocate. I listed him as a UL commitment on Scout., but I'm not going to post a story on him until this matter is clarified.

But I don't think he lied to either of us when he stated that he committed. It's clear Louisana Tech as put a lot of pressure on him and have used the Rivals site to help.

Similar tatics have been used with Bryson Abraham as well. _

Tech's board sure is acting like they've got him. Also suggesting that its really academics the young man's after.

Certainly not playing in a dying conference such as the WAC.

Academics? Tech? Bradshaw?

Academics because he also had offers from Ivy League schools and that LA Tech is so superior academically to us that it is a no brainer that he goes to Tech. It is time to put LA Tech in their place academically. UL is the leader in the UL System, not Tech, in so many areas. Worse case scenario is that they are close to or at our level. These guys are dilusional. Can't wait for the WAC to die and they come crawling to the SBC to save them.

By their own standards, there isn't much difference between the two schools to be arguing for out and out superiority.

HOWEVER, we know which school is better endowed (academically speaking).

Alsander finally responded a few minutes ago. Said he has changed mind and switched to Louisiana Tech "a little bit" after he and I spoke:

I wonder if he is aware of their tenuous conference situation which may have developed today. If not, he needs to be made aware of it.
