Wouldn't be mad if they came to LSU.

In Brian Kelly/Polian I trust

Related but kind of unrelated, I wonder if House is evaluating any of these guys. I know his primary focus is with Kansas City right now, but curious as to whether or not there is dialogue.

Or you could evaluate them and possibly end up taking some lb’s from somewhere else who are better. The idea that we NEED to take every player who transfers from Bama is mind boggling

I'm sure that thought is predicated more on emotion than logic since there has been a bountiful pipeline of good LB's from Baton Rouge to Tuscaloosa the last 5-6 years.

Yeah, no thanks to Lee for the reasons you mentioned.

No interest in either of them. Drew Sanders however would be a huge get

Well I remember this guy laying some wood too. He’s an absolute beast stopping the run. I definitely wouldn’t have him in any base defense but you could easily find a spot for him in packages.

Short yardage, run heavy teams, nickel/dime packages where you could cover him up with an extra safety but he would have to at minimum be able to rush the passer and be disruptive to the QB. I’d just send him to rush the QB if it wasn’t a run play and let him cover a TE or slower type of running back.

There’s no doubt that he could be of some use and as thin as we are right now. If there wasn’t a better option, I’d take him. He’d bring a veteran presence and an attitude to the defense that we are lacking bigly. But like I said if he isn’t even able to be disruptive on pass plays and get pressure then I wouldn’t waste the time. I don’t know enough about him. I trust these coaches. They know what they need. I just hope they can get it asap.
