I don't understand why his ranking is plummeting in both ESPN and 247 rankings! Yes ESPN rankings are a total joke, but I have looked at his film and he seems pretty dominant. Was it b/c he was injured for most of his Jr year? Did he perform poorly at the Under Armour game and workouts? Please advise

No good reason.

He was so dominant during his sophomore year, that it almost set him up for failure. He was injured all of his junior year, has been a long time commitment, and wasn't absolutely dominating at the under armor game. He played against competition in high school that allowed him to take plays off and still be the best player on the field. Once he gets here, he should flourish as he gets in better shape and has Orgeron lighting a fire up his butt. This is just another example of how pointless stars and rankings are.

Didn't have anything to do with his Jr. year. He had a good Sr. year of ball. AA game may have had some factor on his ranking dropping. I don't think he was ready for the best of the best coming out of 2A ball. He will be fine if he works hard at LSU. He has all the tools to be great.

My nephew goes to STA. Plays football. Other guys on the team say Ed A is lazy. Don't know if true. Just hearsay.

Partially due to the fact that he got hurt. Other then that I can't see any reason for the continued downward ranking.

hes been out of shape all year... you could tell even in the UA game he wasnt moving well... he got a good push on some plays but needs to drop some bad weight
