Braylon is a good player he's nothing to sneeze at. 6'1" 185lbs with good speed & good hands.Quote:

Gay visits us next weekend with most of our instate guys and commits. That is the better date for him to be on campus with us. He was always going to take visits and already has.Quote:

LSU is certainly enticing. It was also extremely enticing to Leo Lewis, Jamal Peters, etc..... Listen to insiders & watch actions. Do not pay attention to recruiting interviews & try to break down what the recruit is saying. They are meaningless
If you're handicapping the odds of the 3 then Braylon is the front runner. I wouldn't say we lead for Racey or DD but if you get them in on an OV & you take your chances.Quote:

I never said he wasn't good. We just have a better shot at him than McMathQuote:

We need Gay really really bad and hopefully it will work out for us.Quote:

I would rather expect to sign Willie, AJ, Lashley, etc.. & then be irate afterwards if we don't. That way people will be held accountable for failures & the program can move forward. I just don't see how things can move forward if everyone is always expecting bad things to happen.
I certainly get it the feeling. Just my two cents.
Well I tried the other way when we lost AJ & Lashley, but nothing changed. So I'm going the other route, haQuote:

Hill, Gay, Odom, Hunt, Suggs, Stephen Guidry, maybe Day the punter but he may come the same weekend as Buvilos the kicker, we will see if Bowie shows up but it is tentative for the 13th weekend. As always additions and subtraction will be fluidQuote:
