Don't be such a fig. You're too sensative....
J/K. But seriously, I'm sorry if I offended you. I was just messing with the Mick. I've got no problem with your sexuality. In fact, my brother has the same preferences as you and we are very close so I know more than the average joe about the struggles you've been through. And I admire how you've taken the power away from that word. I wish other people would realize that some words (i.e. the "N-word") are just words and that they only have power when you choose to let them get to you.
And I think Beckwith will grow a little and end up at DE. Especially with all the depth we have at LB and (hopefully) that 5-star LB recruit from Illinois comning in

I also hope he plays LB. I would say he is maybe 6'2.. if heights are inflated as they are at times in HS. He may also be closer to 220 then 230. Having said that, he is the most natural LB LSU has signed in a long while. I know the Georgia kids that have played for LSU have been very good(Shep, Minter, Riley), but this kid was a legit national recruit and has a size/speed combo LSU has not had since Brady James and Trev Faulk....and this included Jones. Previous LBs have either been small and fast, or big and slow. Minter being the one who may have had some of everything but still only 6'0. Beckwith and Jones are both over 6'2 and seem to have wheels. Beckwith ran down one of the best backs in the country in the Under Armor AA game. Whether it translates to SEC(LSU Defense) caliber remains to be seen. But I could see him getting playing time early even though he was not here in the spring.
So, for me, I hope he stays at LB because LSU has not had a dominant Outside LB in a while. I envision the Niners when I think of Beckwith and a couple other young LBs(i.e. Melvin Jones/Kwon Alexander/Duke Riley/Lorenzo Phillips) In Nickle, he goes to the MLB at 6'2 225-240(4.6) speed with one of the others mentioned, similar to how the Niners use Bowman and Willis. In Dime, he is alone in the middle. With all the DE's that are coming in(4 I believe), with 3 being high caliber. I would imagine that luxury would allow him to stay at LB.
Sorry for being so long-winded.

It rhymes with tiger rag and I'm gay, so the name fits. Chicken allowed me to use it once I told him I was gay and not making fun of gays or LSU.
How did you prove to Chicken that you were truly gay?

Don't ask, dont't tell.
Maybe if Ronnie Feast move to DE is permanent, that may allow Beckwith play LB. Then the DE's would be:
1. Rasco & Allen
2. Feast and Hunter
3. freshman DE's
Beckwith may then have the chance to take over the MLB spot by mid-season.

I understand the comparison that you are attempting to make in just taking away the power that the "n " word has .. I do see a vast difference in the depth of degradation and near genocidal impact that is associated with said word... One can exist in "The Closet". You, your friend,or family member can live comfy in the "The Closet". I see absolutely no way how inhabiting a "closet" would have ever been possible WHEN these atrocities occurred, although I am most certain that the anonymity and apparent safety that the "closet" gave inhabitants would have been truly welcomed..

I said I think he'll end up at DE. Too much depth at LB and too little depth at DE. And I think He will grow into that 6'3" frame a little once Moffit gets a hold of him.

Beckwith is going to be a special player. His athleticism and speed for his size are ELITE. Can't wait to see this guy develop. 3-4 OLB or 4-3 DE, so I am thinking DE for us.
This guy might see PT this year at DE. We are thin there and his size is nearly SEC ready.

He sure did.
I dropped my jaw at his ability to pursue 5* RBs laterally and upfield step for step.

Tiger F@g,
You handled the discussion well.
Now back to Beckwith, I say LB judging by this film.
BBI KB vs ZackHS
And emergency QB because of this video. He kind of reminds me of Ryan Perrilloux.
Mostly QB some OLB/DE
I don't think we showed enough appreciate for how big it was that he chose us over many other schools. Beast.

I have no idea what most of that means but I do know from my gay brother and his partner that living "in the closet" is not easy or comfortable in any way, shape or form whatsoever. Most people "in the closet" suffer sever stress, anxiety, shame, guilt and a sense of moral weakness. For some its not so bad and doesn't last long and for other it can drive them to sever depression and even suicide. But nothing in your post has anything to do with taking the power away from offensive and politcaly incorrect words. And it definitely has nothing to do with the OP. So quit trying to put me in my place and answer the OP or GTFO.
Tiger F@g = Cool
You = douche
Beckwith to DE
and as always....
