I doubt Falkins will be a part of Bama's class. Either greyshirt or getting pushed out



No.

Saban visited with him last week and he is enrolling in January.

We pushed Saban's boy's around all game (until last 1:32)when a mistake by a future All-American was made.

I believe that that the luster is coming off of Bama's shiny hubcaps...

Kid's are starting to believe in Miles because he truly believes in them.

If you want a gtreat support system, play for a BCS title and have a great time playing football, Come to LSU period.

Joe horn, steve smith, hines ward. Those guys werent "tall" receivers. Plenty of other guys that pretty much dispell ur notion that taller= better.

Lsu has had more guys under 6'4 perform well than guys 6'4 and up. Dwayne bowe, henderson, davis, doucet, reed. I think clayton is the only guy in recent memory.

Huh? LSU hasn't had a 6'4 WR. Terrence Toliver was under 6'3 1/2 at the combine. Our next two tallest WR's since Saban came was Bowe and Clayton both 6'2 1/2. Don't get what your point is when our three tallest WR's preformed very well.

I think his point is that just because a receiver is tall does not make him better. I'd take a short receiver who didn't drop passes over a tall guy with questionable hands every time. The guy who still holds LSU and the SEC's single season record for receiving yards is Josh Reed with 1,740, and he is all of 5'10"

If he can play anyting like Kenny Bell we will take him off your hands. We hear bell will be back for the title game too, tough little dude...

Kenny Bell route is "go long." that's about it. He can't catch a ball as a legit slot WR and if he does, he gets his leg busted in two.

Kenny Bell isn't as good as you Bammers prop him up to be. He's very limited. Very.
