With the addition of Gunner Kiel (Columbus, Ind./Columbus East), the No. 2 ranked QB in the nation, LSU has jumped up the rankings in many recruiting polls. The former Indiana commit is the fifth ESPNU 150 prospect to commit to coach Les Miles.

Recruiting season has heated up as Alabama and LSU are vying for several of the top undecided prospects. Tiger fans will want to watch the Under Armour game this Thursday Jan. 5, 2012, 7:30 p.m. ET (ESPN). Several future Tigers will be playing in the game including OL Vadal Alexander, WR Avery Johnson, OLB Ronnie Feist,  and the top long snapper in the country Reid Ferguson. Continue reading →

53 Years Later, LSU Hopes For Better Ending

Posted on December 19, 2011 by | 1,615 Comments

If late Ole Miss football coach Johnny Vaught were still alive – the greatest Rebel of all died in February 2006 – he would have gotten a visit this month from current Alabama coach Nick Saban.

All Quiet At LSU

Posted on December 15, 2011 by | 1,714 Comments

LSU and words like quiet have not gone together in a long time.

Semester grades are coming up, so I will still hold my breath a tiny bit, but all has been calm recently on the LSU front. No fights, suspensions, coaches leaving, or anything negative around the football program.

As I am writing this, I know that if something happens, people may blame me. Continue reading →

Don’t Blame Bama

Posted on December 5, 2011 by | 1,602 Comments

As much as I disagree with LSU having to play Alabama (documented here) for a 2nd time this season, I can’t blame Nick Saban or the Tide for wanting a rematch. This ongoing debate just throws more fuel on the fire about how the BCS is a flawed system that will never get it entirely right. Continue reading →

Obviously Nick Saban has listened to TLC because he’s not too proud to beg. Saban has started politicking early for his Crimson Tide to play LSU in the BCS championship game. See his comments from earlier today. Continue reading →
