Tour time

The annual LSU Tiger Tour is in full swing. LSU officials have made stops in Alexandria and Lafayette. They'll be in Shreveport-Bossier City on Monday.

For Les Miles, this is a crucial time on a couple of fronts. May is an evaluation period for recruits, so it's crucial that Miles not only sees recruits, but that he is seen by the recruits he wants for next year.

And there is also the crucial time of meeting the folks who are paying his salary. History shows that a Gerry DiNardo might get a longer leash because of his PR skills than a coach who doesn't play the game.
