West Monroe standout Slade Bolden has received over 20 scholarship offers from various programs all over the country--he can now add LSU to that list.
The versatile 5-11, 195-pounder took to Twitter on Thursday to announce some news that he believes is the dream of every kid playing football in Louisiana.

Bolden's recruitment took off this spring, with the likes of Tennessee, Ole Miss, Arkansas, TCU and Arizona State throwing their names in the hat, but he was not prepared to hear the words being muttered on the other end of a phone call Thursday morning.
