Other recruits Les Miles is recruiting that I know of are: Moses McCray (DT, 6'2", 280) from Tampa Florida, linebacker Larentee McCray from the Miami area, and two defensive backs, Patrick Johnson from Pompano Beach and T. J. Byrant from Tallahassee. Also, LSU is still very much in the mix for offensive lineman Matt Patchan from Miami and Antoine McClain from Anniston, Alabama. I believe LSU's chances are better than 50 percent with both of the McCrays and T. J. Byrant and close to 50 percent with Patchan and McClain.

sure would be a nice way to top off our recruiting class if we could land a few of those players.

I think "close to 50 percent" may be a bit too generous in regard to Matt Patchan.

Not sure about the other guys, but I'm pretty sure Patchan's going to either Florida or Miami

I think LSU will land the following 6 players:

1. Tyler Edwards - TE
2. Moses McCray - DT
3. Larentee McCray - LB
4. TJ Bryant - DB
5. Antoine McClain - OL

Along with 5 star DeAngelo Benton

LSU, with 27 players, should finish anywhere from 5th to 8th place. With the poor evaluation by Rivals on the 08 Louisiana class, this is obviously a highly successful recruiting campaign by Les and the gang.

And I think it would be CLM's most impressive class considering all the distractions we have had to deal with all year.

McClain seems to have cut Bama from his list and has set up official visits to Tenn, Auburn, Clemson, and LSU. LSU will be his last official visit on Feb. 2nd.

More accurately, Bama cut McLain from THEIR list.:thumb: They didn't have room for him.

not the first time they've done it, either. I kinda feel bad for the guy because hes tried to get on their commit list more than once only to get told "Thanks, but no thanks."

Oh well, their loss.

McClain probably will not announce until NSD.

McClain's final official visit will be to LSU on Feb. 2. "I really like head coach Les Miles," he said. "He's a great guy and a good coach and has done an amazing job there. They are a top team every year and are playing for another national championship this year. "I was worried when I heard that he might be going to Michigan, but after I found out that coach Miles was staying for sure, LSU was back in my top five."

Here's the basic run-down of who we could finish this class with, that I feel we have a realistic shot with.

Patrick Johnson 5 star
Tyler Edwards 4 star.
Derrick Hall 4 star
Lerentee McCray 4 star
Lavar Edwards 3 star
Brandon Thompson 4 star
Antoine McClain 4 star
Zebrie Sanders 4 star
Ben Jones 4 star
Greg Shaw 4 star
DeAndre Brown 5 star
Aundre Dean 4 star
TJ Bryant 4 star
Moses McCray 4 star

I think LSU lands Patrick Johnson & Tyler Edwards. There are several possiblities for the remaining OLine spot, and I expect us to get one of them - either Antoine, Zebrie, Ben, or Greg, and either Hall or Dean at RB/ATH.

Assuming we don't land Brandon Thompson (good assumption), or Moses McCray (bad assumption) Lavar Edwards will probably be in this class as well.
