Washusker Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 committed to LSU. The Baton Rouge Advocate reports that LSU picked up a verbal commitment from Round Rock, Texas tight end Alex Russian. "I was kind of worried," Russian told the paper. "But LSU called and said they were still highly interested in me." "I just really liked the staff, they were very energetic and positive. My dad really got along well with coach [Les] Miles. My dad's a Michigan State graduate and coach Miles went to Michigan and they got along great." Someone needs to tell Miles that he's supposed to be recruiting the Southeast - not Texas!!! Quote Link to comment
DJR313 Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Someone needs to tell Miles that he's supposed to be recruiting the Southeast - not Texas!!! From my understanding of the geography of Texas, Round Rock is in East Texas and not too far from Louisiana. I know Big Dave said he is from the area, correct me if I am wrong. Quote Link to comment

Um actually Round Rock is a suburb north of Austin. So that would be central Texas basically UTs back yard also home of Dell Computer! (my plug for them) I went to HS there but now live in E Texas for a couple more weeks then Omaha again Quote Link to comment

(my plug for them) I went to HS there but now live in E Texas for a couple more weeks then Omaha again Thanks man. I just looked that up and saw it was pretty close to UT. Kind of weird that LSU got him over UT. You are a few weeks late getting back to Omaha man! The CWS rules. Quote Link to comment
huskerdavo Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Yeah no problem man! Yeah well he probably wasnt good enough for UT or smart enough. I may have missed CWS but I am sure glad I will be moved in well before Sept. Quote Link to comment
BiggerRed Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 A post per rivals indicates that Russian may be having second thoughts. Perhaps our coaches are contacting him in the wake of Ian Harris taking visits. Alex Russian Quote Link to comment
