You can actually add another 5 maybe 6 to that list. J. Adams, Cliff Garrett, Paris, Valentine, Voorhies and D Williams. And a couple of 3 stars whom could all be 4 stars to. They have 3 stars only to prevent LSU from over taking bama.

In that picture fournette looks like an NFL running back! Just imagine when he finally gets to campus an starts working with moffit. Then with all the good things that Whitfield is saying about Harris, Mike D comparing Dupree to AJ Green, throw in Quinn the most productive high school WR ever the future looks bright! Then all the studs on D, man it's great to be a Tiger fan! Good luck to our Baseball Tigers!!!

I wish we would wait until any or all of these guys actually performs well in an actual SEC football game, to crown them as super-special or whatever. I too expect great things from them, but it may take a couple of seasons to see them perform at the high level everyone expects.

No ones crowning them already (except maybe fournette), they're just saying they're exited that they will be on campus soon.

Get off your high horse

And this line I believe is going to maul teams. Our first 5 games or so should be great to get going. They need to play hard for these games also and I think they finally will.

Exactly...and, can anyone remember when we last brought in this type of talent on Offense with one class? I can't. With us being such a defense oriented team lately...it sure is nice to see this type talent coming aboard. Lets hope it continues

To be fair we need these guys to perform. At least at the wr position. Quinn and dupre will be the highest rated receivers on the team hopefully one if them is good enough to play day 1. Plus Harris and fournette will have to perform if there is an injury considering we lack depth at their position. So we might as well be excited to get these guys on campus.

Just hope we have someone who can run the offense so these guys can showcase their talents. Especially the wide receivers.

As with any offense, Quarterback play will be the key.

Correct. This is just the way offensive football is.

We can have all the talent in the world at RB and WR and OL, but if we have poor QB play, not much of it will matter.

Teams will stack the box, take away the run, and make us throw. Great WRs can't do much without a solid QB putting the ball between the numbers.

I think Fournette gets around 600 yards the first 5 games.

Doesn't matter. LSU in 2010 had the worst passing in a long time, Ridley had 1150 yards and 15 TDs, JJ added 450 yards and 7 TDs. The whole team combined for over 2400 yards and 29 TDs. So 1600 yards and 22 TDs on the ground from two players with no passing game is definitely possible.

Just look at Arkansas last year with 1900 yards and 8 TDs from two RBs with a pass game that was almost as bad as our 2010 pass game.

Also for most of 2012 we had a horrible pass offense yet we still put up 2250 yards and 29 TDs.

FWIW I think we run for close to 3000 yards and around 35 TDs.

Quinn is underrated even at.11. I'm going to put desean Smith In there as well. He will be a sophomore...but I think he may be the best TE at LSU in a extremely long time lol
