re: Defensive Tackles?

Well guys, you know what we signed last year, so we really don't need any this year.

I wouldn't be surprised if we don't sign a single DT in the 2010 class.

I suspect Akiem Hicks will be one of the four DT that rotate in the first team this year if he is any good.

I look for Josh Downs and Chris Davenport to redshirt this year.

We could take two or three next year and still be in great shape.

Don't let the fact that we don't sign any this year worry you. Miles & Co. have it well in hand.

And, by not signing any this year, it sends a message to kids: no matter how good you are, you better have the grades.

The fact that LSU didn't offer Lacy and only half heartedly offered Sentemore late, also sends the same message.
