Maybe Mingo and he will be a project for a couple of years. Blocking NFL tight ends will have no issue with him until he gains some size ande strength.

Reid, Ware, Simon, Logan - Really ? What is so special about these guys that they dont need another year of training.

I am not even sure about Monty, after last night there are several Clemson players that should opt out to if they NFL needs them so badly.

They won't get any better under Miles. (At least on offense)

Will not be drafted. He doesn't move his feet until after the receivers start running.

Some of them need to go; Simon and Reid are better off trying to make the nfl jump than returning and continuing to have their deficiencies exposed.

Because in the NFL you can play for a questionable staff and still get paid for it.

Simon dares anyone to run a deep route on him. He is ready!

Reason #1- if they come back they still gotta play with a coach who knows nothing about game management!!!!! #2- if they come back they still playing for a coach who's really overpaid!!!! Last reason if they come back they have to play there fails off and have there overpaid coach blow another big game by not knowing what to do!!!!!!!! Great recruiter of talent, just cannot coach the talent!!!!!!!

He can add size and strength in the NFL.

He can also get hurt next season and hurt his draft stock. If you're top 10, you go IMO.

Almost Every recruit wants to be a 3 and out. In Basketball they want to be a 1 and out. How would u be if u were them? These guys come to LSU to go pro whenever their draft status is right. Any Jr that comes back is thinking one more yr equals higher draft ranking if this isnt the case time to roll the dice and get paid for these bruises.

There are exceptions like Barkley and Manning but u cant blame guys for taking the dollars when their stock is the highest.

Simon isn't even close.

Mingo, Montgomery, and Logan are ready.

Minter is ready, but I think he could improve his stock by coming back another year, simply because the linebacker position is pretty strong in this draft.

Ware and Ford should both go. They won't get enough touches next year to improve their stock.

Reid really wasn't all that amazing this year, despite his all-American status, but you can't blame him if he leaves. In the end, I think he stays.

Loston might surprise some people and go pro, but I have him staying.

In the end, I think we lose Wing, Mingo, Montgomery, Logan, Ware, and Ford. We keep Minter, Simon, and Loston.

All four are physically mature. That is, they will not get appreciably bigger or stronger. None of the four will get more experienced by staying. Playing another year at LSU won't help guys who have played a lot already. So all four of these guys are as ready as they will ever be. That's time to go pro unless their goal is to please the fapmasters on this board.

They need to go. If your heart isn't in it, go on. We appreciate your time as a Tiger.

really?? You expecting them to get that extra year of training underneath Miles' tutelage?? Get the hell out of here with that. Besides, sounds like you have a hard on for these guys when they have given everything to LSU in the time they have been there and have nothing to show for it with the idiot head coach they have. These guys owe LSU nothing, I thank them for their hard work that should have paid off in a title last season and wish them the best. They are more than ready for the NFL and will be much better off receiving that extra year of training in the NFL because that is what they will be doing anyways in their rookie years, idiot.
