looking through previous rivals top 150 guys from 2002-present..there are a lot of signees to LSU that have long gone forgotten.
To name a few:
02'
Jason Spadoni
Lester Ricard Jr.
Blair Irvin

03'
Nick Child
Barrington Edwards

04'
EJ Kuale
Mario Stevenson

05'
Antonio Robinson

06'
Charles Deas

Those are just some of the big time recruits I could remember getting excited about and I havent heard anything since.
Anyone know what happened to them??

Transferred to North Carolina.

EJ Kuale

I remember him having that huge hit at Miss. State. Not a clue where he is at now.

Mario Stevenson

I thought he was going to be the best CB LSU ever had...he was a freaking Linebacker playing CB. Wasn't he like 6'2 215?

Transferred to Tulane and played the rest of the time there. Maybe got picked up as a free agent in NFL, so maybe on a practice squad... Cant remember

I think he's playing with K State, he could qualify and went to JUCO, then committed to Auburn, but changed at the last second

I was super excited about him too. Think was listed as sub 4.4 speed and had perfect CB size.

Both played some. Stephenson was really injury-ridden (transferred from Colorado.) Kuale was a JUCO and played well when healthy.

Actually Stephenson transferred from a JUCO in MS. You are thinking of Sammy Joesph.

You are correct. I think Stephenson played some special teams, and that was about it.

That's the problem with JUCOs and Transfers - by the time you get to know them, they're gone.
