Lewis Neal has more pass-rush moves than any DE on LSU's roster

I rarely watch recruits film but I did for Neal and wow! In the first minute I saw a bull rush, spin move, dipping of shoulder & ripping thru OT, swim move, & speed rush. I am a little dissapointed in the lack of technique by the M&M boys. They've been here too long to not develop those moves. I'm sure they've used such, but just haven't seen much of it. I realize it's a HS highlight real, but still came away impressed. Can't wait to see him get after the QB

Maybe a little stretch but not much. Have you seen his film? Do you think the M&M boys have good technique in rushing the passer? Mingo's speed rush also wasn't very effective this year

In regards to Neal, he uses his hands and arms extremely well. His hands and his strength are his best assets. He is also a fundamentally sound tackler with good instincts and field vision.

A lot of times M&M are limited by scheme. They rarely have the green light to just freewheel. If we turned them loose we'd get a lot more sacks, but we'd give up containment a lot more.

He has great feet, as well. His best move is the speed rush fake, stop, let the tackle go by, and inside rush the QB. I've seen him do it countless times,and its hard for those big tackles to stop their momentum, but they have to honor his speed rush, too. Looks like a good one.

I watched his film just now. His technique is high school level. He is just stronger and faster then the kids he is against. If you watch his swim he pretty much clears the block with just his swat. Same with his rip move. He has very heavy hands no doubt.

He does have good hips and bends well, that will make his transition easier but he still needs a lot of work.

To say he has more pass rush moves than anyone on the LSU roster is down right laughable.
