I wonder if he realizes that Jameis Winston likely won't be at FSU in 2015.

Are we recruiting him for defensive or offensive side?

Almost positive we are recruiting him as an offensive athlete, primarily WR. Would make a beast safety or OLB though at 6'3 190lb and a 4.36 40 handtime.

I think we are actually recruiting him as a safety, which is probably why he still has FSU at the top.

Nevermind. I got him mixed up with McFadden and Raymond who are listed as corners but are being offered at safety by LSU. I do know that Campbell's catching ability has been highly criticized, and his size screams safety. I think LSU would take him at either position due to his athletic ability, but I think he would make a much better safety.

Would this kill our chances for Tyron Johnson?

I have no idea what would improve or hurt our chances with Tyron. He is all over the place.

I know LSU is hands down the best choice because of the coaches and the opportunity we give, that goes without saying. But is there something else that's got us high on his radar? A fellow teammate? friend on the team? family in the area?

The last 2 "down to LSU and ..." recruits didn't go so good, hope we not looking at a threepeat. Sure would love to be surprised!

We're recruiting Campbell as a safety. He just isn't a natural pass catcher. FSU is selling him a line of bullshite right now and that's why he's been trending their way. Not sure he's as big a lock to FSU as the consensus seems to be. I think his interest has cooled since his visit.
