Dont hear much about him on the linebacker posts or on the boards. Is he just falling in the depth chart? I remember we pushed to get this kid then he committed to Florida then came back to LSU. Seemed confused in his whole process. Hope he sees some playing time.

I forgot to mention him in my post. Good player, good size and has room to gain weight. After next year with Lamin and Tajh leaving I think he will see some playing time.

Didn't you start a thread before claiming to be close to his family and that he was transferring?

They way LSU was after him figured he was a start after Chavis said he was the best LB in the state

Point? The guys ahead of him are more talented at this point. Maybe he'll develop past them eventually but he needs time to develop.

Jones was a heat-seeking missile in his limited play as a freshman and Kwon steadily looked better before his injury. He'll either get processed or develop. Nobody can say at this point.

It's pretty ignorant to assume you're going to come to a program like LSU and just have the starting job handed to you.

Earn it.

Maybe he should just work harder and take the spot. It will make him in to the best player he could be

I think he will be fine, and could be in a starting role for his Jr year. If that is not good enough, I dont know what to tell folks like that.

Maybe our recruiting speeches focus to much on immediate reward if kids cant wait till year three in program.

He was a big strong looking kid. Just takes a while to get it down.

He'll have his chance to earn more pt this spring. The only reason the other LBs are mentioned before him is because we saw them play more in the fall. He'll be in the mix next season

he definitely played this yr, in a few games at that, so maybe they're saying he got an injury.
