I don't see Brown's loss as a huge one. It hurts not to get him, but at least he's from TX. But losing Noil and Willis from inside LA, especially after losing Landon Collins a couple of years ago, and suddenly their air of invincibility in-state is taking a big hit.

If Prescott becomes nationally known and it's publicized that he's from LA as well, that will hurt perception even more. Looks like despite LSU's success, you can now feel confident going in there to grab their top players.
