...as their 3 starting wideouts! I would hazard a guess that all but maybe 5 or 6 schools in the country would consider themselves extremely lucky to have this threesome as their starters. Amazing that we can lose these 3 in a matter of a few months and still be LOADED at WR!

And all for a team that (supposedly) can't pass!

I wish them the best in their careers. I just wish we had more of a passing offense so we could better showcase all the WR talent we've brought in these past few years. Bring on the downvotes.

i guess it's good that they're not at other schools. kind of like hoarding good things so others can't use them against you...

Based on their recruiting rankings?

Cause they haven't done shite on the field. Ever

Trey Quinn would still be here if he caught those passes in the 2014 Bama game.

Yes, TQ dropped a pass as a true-fresh against Bama and that sucked. We have NFL starters as our starting WRs nearly every year. Those 3 haven't done shite on the field because it's difficult to get them on the field and that's a shame. Those 3 would have 1000 yard seasons at somewhere like Baylor(before), Oregon, Cal, Oh St., and a lot of others.

There is A LOT of truth to this strategy!

Wish all three the very best! Glad they chose to try and represent the state they love. To answer your question, I think all three had opportunities to go anywhere they wanted after high school, JD and TQ had many choices after getting their release, and I am sure TJ will have many to choose from as well.

Could you classify all three xfers as more YAC guys rather than tall, outside receivers? What are their heights, 6 foot each about?

ETA: it may be more the type of receivers that dont fit as much as anything.

Diarse had more receptions and yards as a true freshman than Dwayne Bowe, Jarvis Landry, Rueben Randle, Brandon LaFell, and Terrance Tolliver. He also had more receiving yards than Early Doucet during his rookie campaign.

You just showed both guys career highlights in 4 gifs from 2 games. I think you actually made his point

Well done.

Two of those three have been starters in the SEC, and TJ played in about 8 games as a true freshman.

But, I guess that ain't "done shite" compared with the LSU accomplishments of Earl and OldMan.

The OBJ screenshot someone posted yesterday is probably a better example.

Wonder why?

I'd say lack of opportunity with ball tossed their way is the answer.

The one that shows no context?

If you saw ODB act like a bitch last year playing Richard Sherman that www exactly what my post was about. That isn't any fun tho

Making GIFs takes time. I suggest you have a toke on a joint, sit down, and relax.

So again, do we actually know if they are good or not, or are you just basing that off of their recruiting rankings?
