National Signing Day For LSU and Louisiana Tech Roundup


Update Nov 15- So far the signing day period is going good for both schools. I was a tad delayed because the electricity kept going off in town every 10 minutes last night. However this post will be updated as the day goes on. I expect a lot more on Softball for bot . schools today.
