Ware

Copeland
Faulk
Ford
Wright
Mett

I am not saying these players or going just wondering who people think will be back next year on offense.

I work with Ford's mom at Ft Polk...he's gone after this year according to her. Personally can't see it simply based on this year's performance or playing time.

Correct me if I'm wrong but Hill has at least two more years. He is only a freshman.

Its not by your college time, its by how long you've been out of HS. He sat out a year, played a year, and will play next year. So that's 3 years.

The rule is 3 years removed from HS.

This is year 2.

hill's not a normal freshman. He graduated HS 2 years ago, so he'll be eligible to leave after next year.

according to this board everyone who lettered last year will be declaring for the draft.

Jeremy Hill might qualify as a soph because of his age - he sat out a year after HS.

I've heard the following are guaranteed leaving from this board:

Ware
Ford
Minter
Mingo
Montgomery
Logan
Simon
Reid
Wing

if we lose those 6 defensive guys, we will be absolutely fricked next year. However, I have a feeling we get back at least Logan and Simon and possibly Mingo and a slight chance at Reid.

I seriously hope Copeland doesn't leave. I don't know how anyone could have any full back ranked above him on the draft board. Probably my favorite player on offense this year. For a guy that is so physical and blocks like a beast he can take the hand-off or the screen and scoot for 15 yards. I don't know the last time I have seen such a versatile full back at LSU.

I wouldn't worry. Most pro teams have stopped even using a fullback as they want another receiver on every play. And to me Copeland's big advantage is size which would be negated when everyone is just as big that he plays against.

Ware will be a 10 year pro, IMO. He does everything well.

We wont be fricked if all of them leave.

I think Mingo and Montgomery are sure first rounders so they won't come back. Reid is being mocked in late first, early second. I would say he is 50/50 on coming back. I could see Minter leaving because he is having such a monster year.

I hope everyone is wrong and you're right. I have no credible sources and you know this board is straight speculation.. No one knows what will happen. Monty and Mingo are projected 1st rounders. If that's true, they're out. If not, they might stay to help solve some unfinished business.
