    Ali Highsmith
    Chevis Jackson
    Craig Steltz
    Jonathan Zenon
    Kirston Pittman--probably will not go since he is waiting to be cleared for a medical redshirt.

    Only USC and VT have more invites than LSU.

    Surprised Stewart and Patrick Fisher were not invited

    I am not at all suprised that Stewart didn't get invited.

    As for Fisher, how many punters get invited each year? Any?

    I would be interested to see a breakdown of ratios for teams, with number invited vs number not invited, as that would probably be a better indication of talent level than just the total number invited. I'm sure uscvball can at least provide that for USC.

    I just took a rough count and it looks like 9 punters were invited and that makes it even more surprising that Fisher wasn't on the list.

    FYI, No kickers are on the list.

    I think the 9 you counted include punters and kickers. Because there's about 4 kickers on the list, including a guy we know very well from a couple years ago.

    I'm not a bit surprised about Stewart. A converted defensive lineman, I would be amazed if any NFL team had them on their O-tackle prospects list before the season started. And he did very little to impress anyone during the year.

    Kinda nervous about Hester's 40... I sure hope he is slimming down a bit for the combine... if he runs sub 4.6 he will get some looks at a HB, if not, then FB...

    I think thats CZ if you mean cheap diamond ...girls gotta know know her fake stones, ya' know!

    They'll see his talents and reward him, and if not, he'll have an agent to help them see the light!

    I counted 21 Seniors eligible for the draft/combine. 12 were invited unless I counted wrong. I have to think that our kicker Mario Danelo would have been invited if he hadn't died. He broke several NCAA records as a junior and this would have been his senior year.

    For the record, a true class act by Pete to run the absent kicker on the first point after kick of the season. Reminiscent of how the Military pay tribute to fallen comrades. Nice to see heritage has not died in certain ways.
