re: Reuben Randle to the draft?

Then when he got here put him in the position that was best for him and the team? Catch my drift?

Exactly. All's fair in love and recruiting. If Avery wants to start, tell him he has a really good shot at being a starter, and say whatever you can to support that, that isn't a flat out lie. Notice they didn't say RR is 100% to the draft...

"Oh he had a want, to remain in the LSU uniform for another year, here's your redshirt."

not really no

Les tried to talk RS out of becoming a full time WR/Ath for LSU and to keep working on developing as a QB.

In this case it was RS not LM that made the decision to move RS away from the QB position
