LSU Recruitment

[tootiepie2]

I have wanted to post for awhile but for some reason I could not get on and finally had to make a new name and get on with my daughters e-mail! There was probably a much easier way to do this but I am not very profecient on the computer.
Anyway. quota was 84 and as far as I know all groups made quota this year. I went to help at the house for bid day and it was just as emotional and when we were waiting to find out if we got a bid. All the girls are so wore out after two weeks of work that it didn't take much for them to break down!!! A house full of girls is such a fun place to be after 2 weeks of stress.
Daughter told me at the beginning of the week there were over 1000 pmn's which was a record. I assume some dropped or were cut. I was told that one group took about 30 over quota because they lost a lot of members over the summer and needed to get back to total ( can't confim this but heard it froma lot of Baton Rouge moms at bid day) Daughter also said that one groups grades had fallen so much that they could only pledge girls with a 3.5 or above, so that made for a lot of cuts right off. There was even a set of very high profile twins ( don't know if they had that one thing or sequined hose) !
Daughter is glad it is over and is ready to enjoy the year. Last year wasn't the best, she had a very unsupportive boyfirend and almost quit. Thankfully her friends talked her out of it. Nothing I said really helped but when her friends told her exactly what I said it made sense suddenly. Hoping that she makes some of those connections she didn't really make last year and enjoys it more this year.
