Strapping it on for year number 3 of The Bayou Bash Broadcast! Once
again, we provide comprehensive--8 hour--coverage of LSU's recruiting
party on National Signing Date. As we did in year 2, we'll be
broadcasting on our 3 SportsGumbo stations:
KKAY, 1590AM, River Parishes/Baton Rouge;
ESPN, 1560AM, New Orleans; and
KEZM, 1310AM, Lake Charles. Plus, you
can catch us on the Internet at
www.sportsgumbo.net, click Listen LIVE (upper left hand corner,on
top of this page, under SportsGumbo, click here, Listen LIVE). At
this writing, we have 21 of the 22 LSU commitments and/or coaches
scheduled to be interviewed. They'll have the ignominious distinction
of being grilled by Jon Fine,
Jason Van Buskirk and Jason Hill. The Bayou Recruiting Guru,
Olin Berthelot, will be furnishing updates on
all of the signings, plus will be offering his insights. LSU is
regarded in many circles as having the nation's #1 recruiting class.
We think we'll be providing you with the #1 coverage of this
recruiting class on day 1 of the National Signing Period--BCS, AP and
by any other recognizable standard!?! In capsule form:
