Unfortunately, that about sums it all up.

He had similar looking plays in the spring game against the 2s.

I'll have to be honest, I don't see Louis shedding blockers much easier.

So how many games does Chavis give those two before sliding barrow inside? And then what happens?

Why would Chavis lie about welter being even with minter two years ago though? How could it possibly help an opponent gameplan to let them know who starts there? Do we even believe Chavis? Why the love for welter if he doesn't have the talent?

The more I try to figure it out, the less I understand.

I still expect our lineup by uga to be kwon at Sam, barrow mike, Beckwith or debo will.

yeah not impressed with Louis either. Debo and Kwon need to be on the field.

Yep... vs a walk on center. Welter only had 2 assisted tackles. Not what you want from your MLB.

met Hill head on at the 2 yd line and ND won.

I don't have it. Welter was a senior then and Hill a junior. It was the semifinal game don't know the year though.

09 actually (Cutrera), but who's counting.

if Welter's Hatcher-bad at Mike, I hope he gets yanked asap.

I was right on the goalline watching from the stands. 4th down play at the whole RHS side was going nuts because hill was no doubt going in and this SOB Welter comes from no where. He closed on hill like JH33 was standing still and just stood him up. I knew from then on he could play for LSU. As much as I hated the outcome of the game, want to see this kid succeed this year.

Yeah, not concerned with Tahj Jones. He probably knows the scheme better than anyone, he was gonna make the calls on D before he was ruled ineligible. He's probably the fastest LB on the team too.

Pretty sure Chavis is gonna put the best one out there he wouldn't be one of the best LBer coach in the country if he would put the wrong person on the field. So no need to worry

Hopefully DJ will thrive in his underdog role where so many are waiting for one mis-step. He has sideline to sideline speed...I know that's a hard pill to swallow for some.

Yeah Lester Earl...not the SEC...But OK in the NFL...Two leading tacklers last year were Chad Greenway &* Luke Kuechly

What sports did you play??

Jones IS the fastest LB, but not Tahj Jones.

Well shite I'm convinced

Who cares if he's getting plowed over 7 yards down the field every play, he made a tackle once in high school
