2012 Class Projections....

1. RB Bourque
2. WR Avery Johnson
3. WR Holmes
4. WR Travin Dural
5. TE Dillon Gordon
6. TE John Thomas
7. OL/DL Gerald Hawkins
8. DE/LB Torshiro Davis
9. LB Ronnie Feist
10. LB Trey Granier
11. LB Lamar Louis
12. CB Dwayne Thomas
13. CB Derrick Raymond
14. FS Jayqwinick Sandolph
15. SS Landon Collins
16. QB Anthony Alford (obviously would prefer Winston)
17. WR Alonzo Moore (really hope we offer)
18. OT Derek Edinburg
19. OL Vadal Alexander
20. DE Denzel Devall
21. DL James McFarland
22. DT Nick James
23. LB Lorenzo Phillips
etc.....
Now I'm no where near as up to date with who's leaning towards us or even if this is the "best case scenario" or "most likely scenario" that's why I'm starting this thread to kind of get a sense of where all the "recruiting gurus" think we stand with what positions we go for, and who is at the top of the list at those positions, and who may get left out of this class.
I'm very uneducated on OOS guys this year so I need some help there as well. I'm also undecided on OL and DL this year, who are our main targets?
For some reason, I don't know if it's just the uniqueness of this year, but I have a feeling that Miles and Co. feel comfortable with the athletes out of Louisiana and unless we have a real good shot at some of the OOS guys I think he's gonna go with the locals who really really want that offer.

Did we give up on Nacho?
Posted on 6/9/11 at 4:18 pm to JBREAUX4LSU
if its supposed to be only 21, i'd take that minus mcfarland and moore
Posted on 6/9/11 at 4:18 pm to JBREAUX4LSU
Lots more LA kids than I thought we'd get this year being a weaker year than previous.

are we taking too many la guys?

Waiting on him to make it to a camp I believe.

Your list is fine with me outside of Moore, take him out and give me another Qb with Alford, just in case be bolts for the MLB.

This. He has to earn an offer first.

20. DE Denzel Devall
I have some concern about Devall. He didn't show for the Tiger Picnic and was at Ole Miss and Bama recently. Will he show up for the July camp? Where will he ultimately end up?? I hope it's another Reuben Randle or Rasco deal, where he keeps us guessing until the end just to pull the LSU hat, but I don't know.
Posted on 6/9/11 at 7:36 pm to jdg91878
He'll be just like Rasco.
The 14 we have plus...
QB-Anthony Alford
OL-Derek Edinburgh
OL-Vadal Alexander
DT-Who really knows at this point, I guess Nick James for one
DT-Another DT
DE-Denzell Devall
LB-Lorenzo Phillips
LB-Otha Peters
S-Landon Collins

I know most on here know that Alford is very high on us, but here's a little read on him, and his top 6....4th story down

I haven't seen too much film on the guy, at 6'1 can he play QB in the SEC? I know for dam sure the kid is athletic....
Posted on 6/10/11 at 9:56 am to JBREAUX4LSU
Scratch off Devall and Moore and add Singelton at DT and that would be my guess at our class
Posted on 6/10/11 at 10:29 am to JBREAUX4LSU
..I don't know, I'm pretty uneducated about this stuff..I'm not sure about who's interested and who isn't ..none of the names are familiar to me .. I can't decide what to say ...what does " oos " mean anyway ? I'm thinking if i made a list, I would be out of the loop anyhow .. couple of cool names in there, though.. 
Posted on 6/10/11 at 10:54 am to GeauxGus
out of state
Posted on 6/10/11 at 11:59 am to tigersmanager
Ooo yeah singleton is a guy that I forgot about actually....the more and more I think about it I think McFarland is the chucky hunter of this year....I want devall and think he's like the rasco of this year as well, as in I think he'll wait to show us love till NSD.
On a side note what does the majority think of lathan?

QB - I would try to get both Alford and Winston and hope at least one plays college ball. But I'm sure every Tiger fan would love that. I'm really hopeing that the staff is staying on Cyler Miles and can get him to flip from Washington just in case LSU can't get both MLB prospects. I actually like Cyler a little mote than alford or Winston. Id really like to get Cyler on board regardless of the other two.
RB - I know LSU told bourque he is the only RB they take but I don't know if they would turn down Brian Kimbrow or T.J. Yeldon if they wanted to commit but I do think bourque is the only RB they end up with. They probly aren't recruiting anyone else at the RB position hard anymore.
WR - I can see them taking one more and I would like to see a big fish from OOS like Jaquay Williams, Davonte Neal, Marvin Bracy, Dvario Montgomery, or Jason Croom. I like Jaquay and Davario but I think if they take one more it will be between Alonzo Moore or Dwayne Benjamin.
TE - I think LSU is done at TE with Ricky Parks commitment to Auburn unless they were able to flip him which I'm not sure they would put a lot of effort into that. Kent Taylor or Sean Price would be nice but I think LSU is done at TE.
OL - I think Derek Edinburgh is gonna be a Tiger. And though D.J. Humphries or John Theus would be nice, I'd be just as happy with Patrick Miller at OT along with Edinburgh and Hawkins. And it be great to get Vadal Alexander and Macho Nacho Garcia who I think both could be dominant guards at LSU but also play OT. I would love those 5 as an offensive line haul. I think those 5 would rival last years OL class.
DL - I see 2 or 3 DE. I love Channing Ward and hope LSU goes after him hard. Him, Denzell Devall( who I'm a little worried about but think the tigers end off with), and Toshiro Davis would be a sick DE group. Those three would be awesome and I ain't gonna rule it out though I think Denzell, Toshiro, and a third DE from Louisiana would be more likely. Just not sure who would get the offer. Would it be Julien Obioha, Alonzo Williams, Terell Latham, James Mcfarland, or another suprise from instate or maybe an OOS suprise. At DT I see 2 or 3 and I really like Nick James to be a dominant nose tackle takin up two gaps and letting all these linebackers fly to the ball. Pulling both the MS Dtackles would be amazing but very unlikely so whether they give out 1 or 2 more DT offers it would probly come down to instate guys like Gerron Borne, B.J. Singleton, Jacoby Briscoe, Marcel Andy, or others
LB - at LB I see Lorenzo Philips being the last guy even though I would like to see one more. A camp battle could decide between Otha Peters, Richie Brown, Deion Jones, and Lloyd Grogran. Even though Deion Jones is coming on strong I like either Otha Peters or Richie Brown if they take one more after Lorenzo Phillips.
DB - At safety London Collins is a must and probly the last one. Even though Quadry Antoine(who is committed to MS State but I'm sure LSU could put on the full court press and flip him) or Cyril Noland could sneak in I think Landon is the last one. Though I'm sure they wouldn't turn down a big fish like Deon Bush or Marcus Maye.( Travis Blanks committed to Clemson I think). Unless they can get a big fish like Tracy Howard, Chris Humes, or T.J. Davis; I think LSU is done at CB though one more wouldn't suprise me to see a camp battle bring one more. I like Trevon Stewart the most but I also believe they could flip Darion Monroe or Jordan Baptiste if they wanted to. I do think they are done at CB; but it wouldn't shock me to see a camp battle bring one of them an offer
RB - I know LSU told bourque he is the only RB they take but I don't know if they would turn down Brian Kimbrow or T.J. Yeldon if they wanted to commit but I do think bourque is the only RB they end up with. They probly aren't recruiting anyone else at the RB position hard anymore.

Devall
It is not looking good for the us for him according to recent quotes;
"Nothing is new with LSU," he said. "It probably goes A&M, Alabama, Mississippi State, Arkansas and then LSU maybe."
ESPN Rumors so take it FWIW.

Richie Brown is the best LB in Mississippi and is on the same team as Nick James. He favors LSU at the moment and would be a great addition to the class.
I thought the 23 scholly limit was imposed for the last class. Why is it capped at 23 again this year?

I think Rasco and Mickey said similar things during their recruitment. I also proceed with caution since it's ESPN but what exactly is new at these other places compared to Lsu.
