Re: 2009 1/2 RB Bryce Brown Excellent post. I agree with most of this, but can't be as certain about adding BB. Would like it if we do, but just tough to get a read on this kid. Definitely agree about overall quality of our class. Rivals appears rigged.
Re: 2009 1/2 RB Bryce Brown The interview with his mentor on Rivals with Buddy Songy and Mike Scarborough , was really good and I've really changed my mind about him! He sounded like a really good guy who is misunderstood, and he had some good things to say about LSU and there were times in the interview where it sounded like LSU was going to be his choice, especially when talking about the SEC and how that is a big part of his decision and how other schools wink wink Miami were eliminated because of their weak conferences
Re: 2009 1/2 RB Bryce Brown There is some bias.. it appears. More than likely it has to do with when the 'team rankings' are released. Quite a few of their athletes don't qualify. Looks like more of the same this year. The best part is.. we lost two 5-stars and a 4-star literally on NSD and STILL landed a top-2 class. That's how stacked it is.

Re: 2009 1/2 RB Bryce Brown interesting article. i was wondering if something could come out that the association of what seems to be nothing more than an agent could make brown ineligible on down the road. would be a shame for the kid if it did.
Re: 2009 1/2 RB Bryce Brown Is the NY Times the only paper that puts periods between the L.S.U.? Not sure why it bothers me, but it don't even look right.
Re: 2009 1/2 RB Bryce Brown They are a dinosaur thats why. Butlers says he is legit, so we'll find out five years from now when the investigation is complete.
Re: 2009 1/2 RB Bryce Brown More perspective on Brown and Butler from a newspaper in Kansas: http://www.kansas.com/252/story/714609.html I e-mailed the writer to let him know Brown is coming to LSU this weekend.
