Don't get your hopes up, it's still very early. If you would like to join late, I believe it's still possible.
It is slow this week before Christmas, which usually means we get a back load of the human interest stories in the local papers. They're usually a good read and a nice way to kill time at work before the office party. The Advoc has a nice profile on Sr. Daniel Graff, a walk on who is one of the leading tackles on Special Teams. They also have another piece on Student-Coach Chip Breaux, who's gone from breaking his neck in a high school game to getting offers from NFL teams. Rosetta also has a few good quotes and notes from last weeks practices.
LSU got another 2011 commit late friday from 5' 11", 225lbs Patterson RB Kenny Hilliard (Yes, that Hilliard, it's his nephew).
Lady Tigers lost a heartbreaker in Lincoln Sunday night to the #20 Huskers, 77-63. Nebraska's defense forced us into bad shots, keeping LSU shooting to just over 39% for the night. The Ladies are now 9-1 and will look to rebound against SELA tonight at 7 in the PMAC (radio on 107.3 in BR)
Meanwhile, the Men are on the road to the Palouse (ok, the game is actually at the Key Areana in Seattle, former home of the SuperSonics.) Below you can watch highlights from the Rice and Nicholls St games.

Did a bunch join the pick 'em yesterday?
When I checked yesterday, I thought there were only 11 in the contest. I remember that because I was #11. I’m not complaining, just trying to verify that it’s not early onset dementia.
CHAD JONES! WOOOO!!!!
No its dementia...
But I along with 6 other people don’t have any points at all so if anyone wants to join today feel free. It’s not like we have a head start.
Oh, and great news on getting Hilliard
It looks like the 2011 recruiting class is going to be huge.
CHAD JONES! WOOOO!!!!
Did we get Hilliard?
And wasn’t he the Louisiana Player of the Year? As a junior? I’m no recruiting junkie, but I’ll be honest, I really really want Hilliard.

Yeah, he committed yesterday
Frank Wilson doin’ work.
2011 (Verbal) Commitments so far:
La’El Collins OT
Jeremy Hill RB
Anthony Johnson DT
Corey White OT
Kenny Hilliard
Rivals hasn’t ranked them yet, but all three are on ESPN’s top 150 watch list.
CHAD JONES! WOOOO!!!!
Next year...
… is supposed to be one of those special years for Louisiana high school talent. We “need” that #1 recruiting class next year.
We really need a recruiting expert ‘round these parts. I ain’t it.

Yeah, I'm not either
I just monitor the TD recruiting board for news. Hopefully Richard will come up for air soon and give us some updates.
CHAD JONES! WOOOO!!!!
He mentioned the other day he didn't have internet access at work yet
Did he quit his job as an attorney and become a park ranger or something? I’m so confused.
Next year is big
It’s the kind of class that sets your program up for years. La’ell may be the top OT in the country. Freak Johnson may be the top DT in the country, although scout seems to think he’s more of a top 50 than top 25 kind of player. Hilliard and Hill are both talented RBs but I don’t understand how we’re going to handle having 8 RBs within 3 years of each other. Which one will be a LB or Safety? Then there’s Jarvis Landry. I don’t care about rankings. This kid’s film is jaw dropping. It’s like taking Michael Clayton’s love of knocking people unconscious and giving him Josh Reeds cutting ability. So many more. I don’t care who ranks it where, there’s some rare talent coming out of Louisiana in ’11. We may not even need to leave the state this year to sign the best recruiting class in the country.
