There was talk last year that the staff liked Gordon at TE and Thomas at OT. No clue if they're still in contact but just pointing out that depth at TE may not be a concern.

I think he didn't qualify.

But I also remember that he was a very good prospect.

If we can get Washington, we'll be set at TE for a couple years

I hope so; he looks great on film. Isn't this only his first year at JC?

Looks like he may fall off the scene. Had 2 catches for 14 yards this season.

Most likely depends on 3 things. How he develops at JC because his measurables and talent are top notch. If we end up with Skinner in this class to add to Stokes and Smith. Lastly, how TE recruiting goes next year. We likely will land Jacorey Washington(too many things in our favor from being the home school to him being pretty tight with Quinn and other kids that will be Tigers) and then it becomes an issue of whether we land Blazevich or one of the other OOS TEs we recruit. I think Thomas is a stud and would love to see him be a Tiger but usually when a kid fails to qualify that pretty much ends our recruitment of them at least from a serious take possibilty standpoint.

He blew out his knee and the academically didn't qualify. I would think his knee not grades would be main reason lsu cooled on him.
