Another 5* rb to Bama.

Another big reason for Leonard to come to LSU.

Not saying he is afraid of competition, but he'll play for us from day 1 and that's becoming less of an option if he leans to the tide.

I think it's good for LSU.

Your thoughts?

Where will Fournette be ranked among RBs nationally?

We're setting things up golden for Fournette. I'd be shocked if he goes to Bama. We are not taking a RB in this class and the only freshman RB has already played so when he comes in the next closest guy on the chart will be a junior already which sets him up perfectly to start by year 2.

Bama has taken 3 top RBs for 2013 so Fournette will have to compete against 3 top flight SO/rFR. when he would get on campus there. Not a good situation for early playing time nor being a feature back for more than a year.

Maybe if Henry plays LB instead of RB. Their depth chart is stacked. Beckwith will probably play as a true freshman at LSU.

It all depends on what position Henry chooses, Saban will influence him to play LB, but he can't force him

but beckwith will not make a decision based off of henry because who knows what he will play.

True but almost every recruit looks at the depth chart of prospective teams

Only way Fournette ends up at Bama is if they sell him on playing LB.
