From the front sports page from today's Baton Rouge Morning Advocate...
Most of the football players LSU has committed or have pursued have had their minds made up for weeks and months.
Trey Granier, an Advocate Second Dozen linebacker from Thibodaux, committed to the Tigers in November 2010. John Curtis tight end Dillon Gordon cast his lot with LSU almost exactly a year ago.
Still, as the curtain is raised Wednesday on the start of the 2012 national signing period, there is still plenty of drama to be found.
The Tigers will be trying to land a pair of highly regarded prospects from Oxford, Ala.: outside linebacker Kwon Alexander (6-foot-2, 215 pounds) and safety Trae Elston (6-0, 180).
LSU also remains in hot pursuit of Hutchinson (Kan.) Community College wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson (6-4, 205), and could still be considering Winnfield wide receiver Alonzo Moore (6-2, 182) as well.
