"ASH finally sends someone to LSU. "

This kid played prior to ASH at Winnfield. Not sure whey he left Winnfield, something about his parents being ill and needed to be closer to Alex doctors or such. A speedster nonetheless.

Quinn to Clemson only happens if we pass on him. He's not the one Tiger fans worry about. Noil is the one to worry about. Quinn bleeds LSU along with the rest of his family.


I agree with this to an extent. Clemson has identified Quinn as the top WR on their board. He's being personally recruited by Morris, Dabo, and Watson.

In a normal year I wouldn't even consider it. I'd tell them they are 100% wasting their time trying to pull someone from LA. However, this year, with the number of WRs LSU plans on taking as well as the system preference that Clemson wins in a landslide, I could see him going to Clemson and if LSU tries to come on late maybe he sticks with Clemson.

I would still expect him to flip, but this is one of the few years I'd think he could go OOS. Almost any other year Quinn would be at the top of LSU's WR board, but this year there are so many studs someone is gonna fall through the cracks.

Nice! Thanks for posting.
Up until just now I thought his name was Clark. Lol. Pretty cool to have a guy with a last name pronounced "shark."

All I know is that pretty much any WR/DB that LSU takes ends up a DB.

So I believe this kid will be a DB.

Ditto, meh.
Offers for WR's and DBs should be very dear this year.
Either 1) Chark is a Mo Claiborne type discovery (which is possible,esp. in North or central La.)2) we have problems with some of the big name WR's or DB's or 3) we made a mistake.
Most others we have been recruiting are 4-5 star type guys, some in the top 25.
Here's hoping we made a big discovery...

do some of you dumb fricks really think they aren't aware the #s will be tight and are just offering guys for the hell of it? This is set up to be an elite class, they aren't going to offer a guy they don't feel is worthy. But hey I'm sure your opinion after watching a few minutes of grainy footage is more informed.

Which of these "dumb fricks" think the coaching staff is unaware of the tight numbers?
I don';t think I've seen that in nay psot, express or implied.
Is this the level at which you usually conduct yourselves on this board, or are you just having an awful day?

So what happens if he gets a bump to 4-stars? Will he still be meh?

I'm less concerned with his stars than with his talent.
But affirmation of that talent by stars or otherwise would help answer some questions. That happened at the very end with Mo.
Here, I am very interested in whether something is looking negative for Noil, Dupre or Quinn (or even one of the top DB's we're after). They are all concensus high four or five stars, if you are a star watcher.
This offer is suprising to some of us.

Well you may get your affirmation with stars. I think he'll get a bump up when he gets more publicity and opportunities on offense. This kid has the tools.

Few things if you can update OP. He measured 6'1.5, 176 lbs and ran a legit 4.5

Solid size and speed. They also think he has the ability to get even faster once he adds more lower body strength

Kid is going to be a stud no matter what side of the ball he plays.

True dat. Versatile players have more college/pro potential.

Here's a recent interview.

Went to 3 camps in 3 days. Said he only slept like 3 hours before the LSU camp

If LSU wouldve waited until Chark hit a few more camps and was rated a 4 star, the dumbasses on this board would be happy instead of pissed off. He got an aTm offer after that camp, LSU offer after our camp. Im sure the coaching staffs of both schools know far less about athletic ability than the guys at 247, and rivals though
