Boutte, White, Beckwith and Smith all should be ahead of Tim.

I think 5th is where I'd have Williams.

I personally don't have a problem with these rankings. The guy that did these rankings watched film, went to games, watched film of them at different all-star games. Basically, did his research before making that list. Notice that he didn't change the recruiting ranks last year when LC chose Bama and kept TD at number 2 last year even though he chose Texas. In 2010, he accurately had TM, Tharold Simon, Alfred Blue and Eric Reid, just to name a few, ahead of Trovon Reed. I don't think this has as much to do with him not wanting to rank guys that don't choose to LSU ahead of guys that do as much as it is he actually does some research and decides based off of that. To those that would say that the National Rankings mean more, I would say that is absolutely wrong. That is like saying a guy that writes up a review of Capital One Bank as a whole knows more about my local bank than the guy that writes up a review about my local bank. You might not agree with his review, but I would trust his over the national one any day of the week.

Williams was going to drop no matter what school he picked. He didn't dominate this year and apparently took a lot of plays off. A lot of schools cooled on him.

This is very logical IMO. I can see Williams being argued for 6th-10th a little but definitely no lower than 10th.

Tim not being in the top 10 is just plain stupid.


Not if you consider off the field issues. They are there, otherwise, LSU would not have stopped pressing. In my opinion, off the field issues should be a major component of rating players. For example, Dhaquille was the top player talent wise in 09, but will never step foot on a college football field.

I think White may have jumped him in the last rankings.
