If the depth chart is that big of an issue he needs to go elsewhere or play linebacker. Better position for him anyway
I think the young man isn't showing his hand. Well, I hope that is the case. If you come to LSU, and play RB, there will always be good players at the position. Come in, work hard, and earn your snaps!

The thing about running backs the depth chart could change in a blink of an eye, with injuries. Not to mention the respect the NFL teams have for LSU running backs prime example Alford blue

-Safety/Running Back but he has a frame that can bulk up to play LB
-Sealy Texas kid which is a little west of Houston
-High Character kid with great leadership/Football IQ



I lived in Texas for a long time so I follow a lot of Texas prospects with interest

Preach! Darrel Williams is a prime example as well. He didn't care if LF was coming to LSU, he wanted to be a Tiger and when he got the offer he committed.


D. Williams ain't no joke and he knows it

Devin White isn't a joke.......he seems super athletic.........If I was an athlete like he was no way I'd break my bread as a RB.......I don't get the love for that position from some..........Leonard Fournette had to be a RB that was his destiny.....

Moses and White, they don't have to be. I don't understand how one sit down with guys like this and some flashes at NFL salaries wouldn't sway them immediately.

Just Canceled his visit altogether to Arkansas

The speculation has been that Springhill (La.) North Webster 4-star running back Devin White would visit Arkansas on Thursday. The rumor even existed early today he would spend four days in Fayetteville.

However, according to a source very close to White, he's not visiting Arkansas this week now. There is no indication why the change of plans, but it now appears White won't be taking his visit. A source indicated last Friday that White was down to Arkansas and Alabama though White hasn't indicated that. LSU, for one, feels they are still in it and the majority feel they are the leaders.


I grabbed this from the SEC Recruing Board, fwiw.

I believe in Frank and Les. Every RB I can remember coming thru the Ponderosa has sniffed a NFL training camp. Even Blue, coming off the ACL made the 53 man team.

Folks ask for info, the recruit gives info and people get all riled up. LSU is not the fit for everyone, there is a whole lot of time till signing day. And if we want him as a RB it really is tough to look at what you will be sitting behind till your Junior year.

The only laughable part is Freeze, doesn't he have a recruiting strategy

Obviously I hope he chooses LSU. But if he doesn't Arky is probably best fit for him. Springhill is on the border of Arkansas, so its not much further than BR for his family. He would start immediately and that offense is tailor-made for him.

Les and frank love big backs and use the running back by committee, so depth shouldn't be a issue

He would play as a freshman. Every guy gets carries every year. It's just how we do things.

It's amazing how the people on twitter are getting in his head. He is repeating everything the twitter stalkers tell him. Maybe LSU needs to hire some twitter stalkers for those recruits that get in to that kind of "love."

. Agreed, he doesn't have the wiggle to be a top rated back from the film I've seen. His bread could be dripping with butter as a LB tho

He can get major playin time right away at all 3 schools except LSU. Bama has no depth behind that big back. Arky and Ole Piss he can probably start right away. Nobody wants to here this, but LSU is loaded right now unless Fournette and Williams leave after this season. fat chance of that!
