On Sunday, LSU's recruiting coordinator Sherman Wilson posted about their staff "getting out a message. Be on the lookout."

That message was a hashtag, "#SheltonStays", taking full aim at 5 star WR Shelton Sampson Jr, with LSU's army of fans or influencers following suit on social media, pumping out the headline across the online world....to the point even national recruiting talking heads were forced into taking notice of LSU's intense climb over the past week and a half.
