| Basketball -2014 Center Mike Thomas, 6'9 - Ville Platte (Posted on 1/21/13 at 1:52 pm)
I saw on 247 we offered him recently and he's been getting interest from a few majors. Anybody seen him play or know any info regarding his interest?

All I know is he has medium interest in Tulane, LA Tech, LSU, Mississippi St, McNeese St, and New Orleans.
Hopefully Johnny Jones can work his magic
ETA: LSU is not in his top 5

Not sure how high the staff is on him. He is listed in the 2014 thread from Bubba though.

may graduate early and go juco. i don't know if we'd take him this class anyway due to already having odo, mickey and martin coming in. if he were to graduate in 2014 he'd fit in much better.

He is a guy that if you want to make comparisons is similar to Malcolm White or Jalen Courtney IMO, not a dominant player at the college level. As someone else posted with Mickey, Martin, and Odo all signed and JOB definately should be coming back, the need for another big for depth purposes isnt there. That having been said 2014 is absolutely loaded if people get excited over 2013's class then wait for 2014!

It shouldn't be with the top player in the state high on LSU's radar for the 2014 class

That's what they guy from Ville Platte that posts here was saying. Hopefully he drops by to give us some knowledge on this kid and also the TE Kendall Ardoin, who is getting LSU interest as well.

I don't think he ends up at LSU but I wish we could make room. I think he's better than White or Courtney .... However, with the players coming in in 2013 then its understandable.

He's a guy I wish we could bring in and redshirt, like Jernard Jarreau at Washington, a NOLA kid.

Who else do we really stand a chance with for 2014 in your opinion? Exum? Victor?. (Sidenote: I wish Bubba would head over to 247 so I could find this stuff out)

If Exum gets a scholly to UNC, best bet is that he ends up there.
I think Indiana is his leader though. Doubtful LSU has a real shot anymore.
