ESPN did their final update. There wasn't a whole lot of change in the list, but Jordan Mickey rose about 15 spots to 38. Jarrel slid one spot to 11 and Quartermann went from 79 to 80.

ESPN gave LSU's class a final ranking of 9.

Video about final list that mentions Mickey has a big sleeper. LINK

Also get a mention in final class rankings (at 2:20). LINK

Joel Embid is way too high, imo. Same with James Young, Vonleh, and Portis.

Hollis Jefferson is too low.

Mickey is going to be that crafty player who does it all. He'll never score a bunch, but he'll provide those highlight reel dunks (along with Martin), tough rebounds and ridiculous blocks which is really good to go along with what we already have.

I really miss Garrett Temple just for his all-around play and I think Mickey can be similar granted he's even a little taller and definitely has the ability to score more than Temple.

Quarterman could be a spitting image of Temple body wise. But his offensive game is far superior to GT's. If quarterman plays some tough defense our team will be sick with length.

I remember when UltimateHog said we wouldn't finish top 10 in any of the final rankings. Good times.

Temple's defense is what was by far his best attribute and I think that's also Mickey's which is why I compared those 2. Body type wise he's similar to Quarterman and both dont have a solid jump shot so they are similar there. Quarterman would have to improve defensively though for me to really compare him to Temple.

Literally brought this up to him last night.

Guess what he did?

UH

You finished 10th on ESPN and Rivals, which is not IN the Top 10. I win.



Me

So you're rolling with "#10 is not in the Top 10" - am I getting this right? Just want to make sure so we can all laugh at you once again over something you cant admit you were obviously completely wrong on.




Obviously he is damage controlling, but that retard honestly believes "IN the top 10" doesnt mean 1-10, but rather 1-9.



I even quoted directly what he said in the original thread for him to see

quote:

For now, what I'm saying is a class rank with recruiting season still right in the heat of things, and the fact that you've dropped 3+ spots on the 2 updated sites 247 and ESPN, means you won't be Top 10 when recruiting is over, which is all that matters.



...and he said that multiple times that thread. Including responses to "Top 10 class" being something like "not for long..."

Even with the twisted view, LSU still managed to move up a spot and met the criteria regardless.

Wrongly so by him, because "in the Top 10" still means 1-10, not 1-9

No matter what I said, he would not admit he was flat out wrong. Another funny thing is in that very thread he said he heard the Rutgers PG was transferring and he was "hearing Arkansas" and the PG chose Auburn today

Yeah that guy is a moron. Typical SECrant poster. Is anyone worth a shite on that board?

Oh yeah, plenty of solid posters, he's easily the worst from the Hog fanbase (which says a lot)

I can count the solid posters on one hand. And that probably includes LSU posters.
