He also CB'd Markevius Bryant (or however it's spelled) to LSU, which I would be very okay with.

I think that's the only guy we're after he hasn't CB'd to LSU

is smith any good,? i seriously doubt he starts next season for bama if he goes to bama reason why bama got like 30 ppl going on scholarship if not more.

I guess we should stop recruiting him from that CB. Even though we are still recruiting him according to recent NOLA article D.Smith is one the few top WR uncommitted. If we concede Bama will get 3 5* receivers Juedy,Ruggs, and Smith if we don't put up a fight. That wall is transparent around LA.for Bama. I guess Nick thinks LA stands for Lower Alabama sad. O needs to hurry up an build that wall quickly.

Doesn't that guy only weight like 160? I realize there's room to grow in college, but a WR putting on 40 lbs in a short period of time doesn't sound like it'd be good for his agility or speed. I'm not doubting his potential, but he seems like more of a project player to me.

He is no project player,it would do him good to add weight but he is a great route runner and dynamic with the ball in his hands after the catch.

quote:At 160 against HS competition. That could change at 200. There's no way a guy can put on 40 lbs quickly and maintain the same agility. Somebody will break him if he doesn't gain at least 25 lbs. He won't even sniff the field until then.

There's zero chance he plays as a freshman at Bama
I don't doubt he will end up being good, but I won't be shocked if he ends up being a kid who was a product of 7-on-7 and camp hype if he can't put on weight

Watch him play and you be the judge, you will get a chance next year to see him when we play bama.

Exactly people act like OBJ was a lot bigger. Dude is a player no need to bash him.
Nico Collins would be a great grab right about now.

Smith reminds be of Tyron Johnson!!! Hope I'm spelling right!!! Great HS receiver but undersized for big time college football!!
Posted on 1/23/17 at 9:24 pm to BASED
Have you seen him play? It's funny when kid is perceived gone or not interested in playing for LSU this board spits venom, man who cares he is a good player thats why he is 5*, he is no slouch and I hope he picks LSU

Desean Jackson did pretty well in the NFL at about 175lbs and Tyron Johnson was a getting lots of playing time as a freshman but transferred after being benched for his laziness (not his ability).
Posted on 1/23/17 at 9:29 pm to moock blackjack
Yea I can see that as well Tyron was a hell of a receiver you could see the potential his freshman year. they are both great route runners.
I think he will have a bright year this upcoming year if they have a qb that can get him the ball, as I believe Rudolph declared

I agree with you, TJ had an attitude, stubborn and was lazy. He has talant, wish him the best.

How exactly am I bashing him? I'm saying he needs to gain a significant amount of weight. I don't believe he'll play as a freshman. How is that perceived as bashing him? He needs to gain weight. That's the bottom line. 6'1" 160 is a stick in the SEC. He'll get hurt at that weight. DeSean Jackson is only 175 but only 5'10". He can afford to weigh less in a more compact frame.
Posted on 1/23/17 at 10:32 pm to grove3
OBJ was 170 and 5'10". 10 more pounds on a more compact frame. Apples to oranges. Height/weight ratio has a lot to do with it. It's not all about weight alone.
Posted on 1/23/17 at 10:46 pm to Laman1978
I wasn't refrerring to you "bashing" him. I've seen it on here a lot not specific to this thread exclusively.
I was just about to say the same thing as your second post that he is taller so it looks worse on him than OBJ.
It's all good my dude

Damn, I was just the messager and you guys scoured me. I'm going to think twice before I ever post bad news again.
