His was an interesting recruiting story to follow.
LSU was slow-playing him from day one. Burton Burns, and the Bama staff, never waivered on the recruitment of Eddie. Then, late in the game (late December, early January) when the chances of him qualifying were looking better and better LSU tried to get back in the picture. And, as you can expect from a lot of fans, then you saw the cries from Tiger fans that he had discipline issues.
Katrina played a large role in his life as it did Flukers.
