He loves aranda and the LSU tradition. Wants an offer badly and would be a hard LSU lean imo! His younger brother Vai Kaho is a talented player as well. Huge athletic ILB who could play immediatly and open a pipeline from that area. A byu commit yet soft one at that. An offer would have him visiting asap 247 Hudl

I hate to say it, but we really dont need a 3rd ILB this class. Took 3 last year and 2 for 2018. Good talent though.

You always need a linebacker who is 6'2" 232 with the last name of Kaho.

You can never have enough linebackers in a 3-4!

Well ya, actually you can. 247 guys say we are not recruiting any more ILB this cycle.

We return White, Taylor, Phillips & Queen next season while adding Clark and Baskerville. That's a full 3 deep at each ILB position. they seem pretty content with sticking by Clark and Baskerville right now.

Just because he's a ILB does not mean he can't play OLB. There are four linebacker spots in a 3-4. Each should at least be 3 deep which is 12 LBs . He could develop into a pass rusher , he can be an inside thumper , he can be the Field backer and contain outside or he can be a rover and be good at coverage .

We return 5 OLB next year and currently have commits from at least 1 if not 2 guys. They are recruiting 1 more OLB and that's Fox who they like a lot. They turned Zakoby McClain away who wanted to commit at OLB. Andrew Chatman is also still in play at OLB.

No. 35 Devin Voorhies 6-2, 223, SR
No. 56 MJ Patterson 6-4, 236, SR
No. 49 Arden Key 6-6, 265, JR
No. 48 DonniE Alexander 6-1, 230, SR
No. 51 Jonathan Rucker 6-1, 240,SR

3 of our Field Linebackers are leaving which only leaves Divinty .

Sci Martin and Andre Anthony have constantly been injured and haven't played any snaps . We have room for more backers . Especially a top one .

On the kid wanting an LSU offer and wanting to visit. It's hard getting those west coast kids to come this way.

Yes he loves LSU and everything about it esp being able to call aranda his position coach or atleast DC if he played various positions. And he loves the playing time he'll be able to compete for so early on! An offer means a visit and possible commitment imo

Thornton can play FLB and has practiced there a lot. We really do have plenty of linebackers for next year, including the 1 more we'll get as a commitment.

That's very interesting, I noticed Texas offered earlier this week. He's not an LDS guy?

Where's all the DEs LSU should have coming? We need depth in a bad way at these positions. OL, DL, QB, I wouldn't mind adding more LBs but we need to stack our LOS up. We need some studs to come in and play right away at DE.

Lots of people leaving this year. 2 more STUD DEs, 1 stud QB, and 2 stud OTs. Then add the (2) CBs, and maybe another stud RB. (2) stud WRs and that's should do it. We need to close this thing out strong!

We have plenty of great pass rushers committed or very close to committing. That's a department I'm not worried about with LSU. Oline is a mystery I see a few possibilities out of state in dif situations. Beyond holding onto the studs we already have committed we need to get Traore on a visit and it'll be the end of his recruitment. And we have the number one qb in the nation this past weekend and impressed the hell out of him plus had the other option come out from his bed hurt from his season ending knee injury talking about how great the staff has been and how he now feels with the group. We look good with both guys but seems we have a favorite in state if he's in
