His name is Lamar Louis and he was just named the best RB at the Houston Nike Camp.

He is commited to LSU and LSU also has 6 other quality backs who are all Sophs or Freshmen, including Spencer Ware, Mike Ford, and Kenny Hilliard. All National recruits.

Bourque was recruited by LSU to play WR because the coaches already know that he wil never see the field at LSU as a RB. So he goes to A&M and LSU just signs somebody else. The talent level in Louisiana is to high to have LSU sign everybody but LSU will get more than it needs. Guaranteed. Enjoy the video.

Yup, it would be TOOO STOOPID to recruit 2 stud running backs in one class.

I mean Why on earth would Trey Williams want to Come to Texas A&M if he thought we were going to bring in another stud running back in the same class.

I totally see your logic on this one.

You're going to fit in well. You sound just like an Aggie.

According to Scout, he's an OLB. I thought that's what he's gonna play at LSU. He might be the same as Morris Claiborne. Cooper and Gonzalez were fighting over whether he was gonna play WR or CB and Cooper won out. Maybe he's projected for OLB because he's already 220 lbs.

I've seen Louis several times and he is very good at either position but he has the apability to take it to the house ever time he touches the ball. Granted LSU is loaded at RB and they may still get Jeremy Hill if he gets out of the situation he's in. Even without Hill, LSU has Spencer Ware (5star); Mlke Ford (4star); Kenny Hilliard (4star); Jakari Gore(4star); and Alfred Blue(3star) all coming back with at least 3 years of elligibility left. Add the possibility of Lamar Louis at RB and it does not surprise me that Bourque chose to go elswhere.

I don't see Louis getting any playing time at RB unless he's OK with waiting for 3-4 years. I feel he's gonna get the opportunity to try both sides of the ball but he's gonna realize he'll have to play LB to get on the field earlier. Better to be in the 3-deep as an OLB than waiting behind 6 runningbacks and that's not including Jeremy Hill. I can see a Jalen Richard/Daniel Taylor type getting action sooner because they are built more like scat-backs.

man i would trade the annual arkansas matchup with LSU in houston in a heartbeat

You were only an invitation away from playing Arky and LSU every year.

We will meet again in the sugar or cotton bowl

...gee I hope OP feels better after that pointless dose of "this really happened, so I feel better than you" medicine...

there, there...

Miles didn't offer. /teasip

So were getting an LSU reject?

Are you retarded?

Have you seen him run through many holes?

I've seen him run OVER many hoe's

I don't see the problem. We are getting a kid that Sherman believes he can use. LSU didn't need him maybe? Who cares. Everyone benefits. No one doubts the kid can play.

Wait, I thought Lester offered every kid in Louisiana . Doesn't he promise like 80 or 90 kids scholarships every year???

We got a guy our Coaches wanted. I'm good with that.

Plus, our players at A&M get a way better education/degree and they can go to the NFL too. It's a win-win for them and us.

LSU fan,

***NEWSFLASH***

WE HAVE BETTER RUNNINGBACKS THAN YOU ON CAMPUS NOW (CYRUS AND MICHAEL) AND HAVE 2 BETTER RECRUITS (WILLIAMS AND BOURQUE)

Please now kindly GTFO.

Awesome. So that means if he doesn't start, your coach is a moron. Then, when he does play, any time he touches the ball and doesn't "take it to the house" (whatever that actually means), he's not living up to his ability.

Claiming he chose A&M to avoid competition for a job when we will have CMike next year as well as two other big RB recruits? I understand LSU may be loaded at RB and Auburn may be loaded at QB, but the influx of new accounts giving us excuses for why A&M got a top recruit from under their noses or beat them in a recruiting battle is nice. Other major programs haven't been paying much attention to us the last decade plus.

Why was turfeater's coaches at his school the very next day?

way to slip in a good ol' coonass racial slur on us! I hope recruits are reading all this.

Corndog.

Aggie backs > than what you got

LOL. It amazes LSU fans (myself included) that A&M signs a recruit from Louisiana and Aggies immediately assume he was an LSU recruit.

All I have stated is FACT about recruiting. Bourque may in fact turn out to be a great RB but in all fairness LSU recruted him to play WR. He wants to play RB. This is a FACT.

A&M signed 3 Louisiana kids last year and LSU recruited NONE of them. One of the A&M signees chose A&M over UL-Lafayette. This is a FACT.

A&M has 3 commits for the 2012 class who are from Louisiana. 2 of the 3 do not have an LSU offer. The 3rd wants to play a position LSU coaches told him they weren't recruiting to play. So he chose to go to A&M. This is a fact.

A&M's recruiting class last year was rated at #27 in the country. It doesn't appear that A&M is recruiting in Louisiana or Texas for that matter as well as Aggie fans try to claim.

So, Les didn't offer/slow play ? Where have we heard this song before? Same tune, just to zydeco. Butterteeth and Les, our favorite duo.

this guys a ****ing moron

The way we claim he was an LSU recruit? You mean like the offer he had to play football at your school?

So you come running over to OUR board for your (first?) post to tell us all about why LSU didn't want an A&M commit, but expect us to think you're just providing information? I smell fear. It's the fear of an LSU fan worried about A&M making inroads into LA recruiting. It smells like corndogs.

Last year's recruiting class was probably the worst class (re stars) Sherman has to date and it was still top 30. Anyone following recruiting knows 2012 is likely to be his best. Your apparent inability to control your fear shows that even you've noticed our recruiting improvement.

It's just a matter of time before we start consistently beating LSU in head to head recruiting battles. The worst part is, we're competing with LSU on their own turf. You'd better go find another excuse outside of "Miles didn't want him at HB" because that won't work for everyone. You should try saying that Miles judges recruits independently from the ranking services and you trust his judgment over anyone else's. Good luck.

LSU62 I was with you all the way until you said that we weren't recruiting in Texas either. Maybe not the last couple of years due to our poor performance, but, we are doing rather well for our 2012 class. We aren't going to steal LSU recruits until we have a team that rivals LSU (and he is right about Bourque, he was offered by LSU, but at receiver and not RB)

I'm going to put weight in the pre-nup. You wouldn't buy an Aston Martin if you knew it was going to turn into a Suburban 6 months later.

Two things trailer kitty

1. He has a L$U offer
2. L$U coaches show up to his HS the day after he commits to A&M.


But yeah...I guess you guys weren't intrested in him.
