Louisiana, despite its relative small size in terms of population, has been a breeding ground for successful college football players for decades.

Defensive end Saivion Jones out of Saint James, receiver Chris Hilton out of Zachary and punter Peyton Todd out of West Monroe make up the current Louisiana natives that have decided to commit to the Tigers.
