I like Taylor as an OT, and that was just from my view of his highlight vid. If he commits, they should tell him to switch over.

He also reminds me of a Michael Brockers type.

Agree. Just get him in and figure the rest out later. Reminds me of a Hawkins type in the sense that he could be a good fit on either side of the ball though Hawkins was always an OL for us. Taylor is too talented to let go elsewhere and like you said he seems like the 1st to pop.

CB, DT and WR are gonna be interesting to watch because if so many good prospects on the board. Really interested to see how things break down at those spots. LB is interesting because of the need and I'm excited to see the impact Steele makes there. Gonna be a fun year IMO. Doesn't seem like its gonna be as stressful as 14. Not yet anyway

I think you have to take Ladler, just to get your foot in the IMG door.

you have to take ladler. he has set a date to commit this weekend and he will be on campus. the staff has to know and approve of this. you have to evaluate the corners and use your best judgment. not all of them will remain uncommitted until summer camps.

the only thing I see is you don't take oos unless they are clearly above instate. otherwise you are handing guys like greedy to a&m or ole piss.

He's a higher upside Maquedius Bain IMO.


We all have a tendency to have a short attention span and heap hyperbole on incoming guys while downplaying those already on the squad. Bain might have the most "upside" of anyone on the D-line. Freakish wingspan and really good feet (dude was a better basketball player than football in high school and can dunk). I'll be interested to see what Orgeron can do with Bain.

Greedy was going to commit within a week of the offer. If he waits too long we move past without batting an eye. I'd only wait for Fulton and Trayvon.

How many DTs are we gonna take? Haha We have a legit shot at Alexander, Oliver, Logan, Guidry, Lawrence, Taylor. Do we really take 6 DTs if they all want in? Would make an absolutely disgusting rotation and be a relentless unit. Now I doubt they all come, but one can only hope

my only point was you don't move past Greedy unless the oos guys is CLEARLY better. otherwise, on a relative basis, you are making the other sec west schools better by handing them greedy type talent.

If greedy is dead set on playing with his brother then he probably won't be coming to lsu

Oliver will be a DE. Logan and Alexander and Lawrence at DT. I like Guidry at DE as well, but we will probably go slimmer at the position. I'd take all 5 of those guys any day.

Yeah i wouldn't wait around for your third-fourth best CB option of the year especially with all the young CB monsters we already have on campus. We can't take everyone in the state to keep others from getting them like bear Bryant did when he had 525 schollies per year.

Thanks red for the comment, maybe the staff knows greedy's want to play with his brother is real. Not down playing the kids talents, but that's why Ladler would become a take at this point.

for sure and greedy's brother is a good player but this year's class is ridiculous so it probably won't happen
