We don't have a FB on the roster. We need a big-time FB who can block and running. We need a weapon at this position. In 2015 we need David Ducre from Northshore but we have to get someone who can block and catch in 2014. Why?

So, why the disfavor of Connor Neighbors?

He got over being from AL, maybe you should give him a chance, too.

Melvin Jones was switched from linebacker to fullback...

Do people not proofread their post before submitting them, anymore??

What is the OP trying to say?

Let's say that is David Ducre of class of '15.

You just put down a 16-year-old on a message board. Feel better about yourself. I'm sure you'll have some smartass response because you probably did pound your chest and felt really great about yourself.

Ducre will likely get an offer.

Not only that, but the "Im Sorry David, LSU didn't want you." line is so, so old. But again, this is the Rant.

1. Neighbors was granted another year of eligibility, so he will, in all likelihood, be the starting FB in 2014.

2. Melvin Jones switched from LB to FB this season, so there is depth at the position - although, Jones is more of an "H-back" type player than true FB, IMO.

3. Ducre is a stud, no doubt, and I was under the impression that he is more of the running/receiving, "H-back" type as well. I think the OP meant to type "Lakeshore," rather than "Northshore." Although, Lakeshore High School (in Mandeville) is technically on the Northshore, so in reality, no harm done.

4. I always like the idea of moving an undersized but fast DL to FB if there is a shortage. I would love for Garrald McDowell to join this class as a FB, but he appears to be firm to Ole Miss.

And I think he can do the FB job quite well next year...

Our best FB on the team this past year was Connor Neighbors. And hes coming back.

And Melvin Jones is a FB too.
