Remember when people thought Dupre should redshirt?

Still think that now?

People said a lot of shite about Dupre as little as 2 weeks ago. Some people said he wouldn't contribute this year, is too skinny to play at this level, needs to toughen up, etc and thought he should redshirt.... Dumbasses.

For reference: LINK

He brings something to the table that no other WRs can do on our team... He can go up and make the catch over a DB. He can win the battle against a DB and come down with the catch.

And he can open things up for our other WRs when he's on the field. Dural will still be our deep threat but might see some more CB2. And since Dupre is another vertical threat, he should help open up the underneath and the middle for Quinn and Diarse.

If we put the right QB back there, we have a scary WR group. But I don't wanna open up that can of worms in here.

Most felt his injuries would linger a bit longer. I did in particular. Glad he's ready now.

Not sure where this is coming from, I'm here every day. Everyone here loves Dupre.

Between Dural and Dupre we have some serious talent at WR

A ton of that was garbage time yards. Not to mention that MSU has a horrible pass defense. This was known going into the game, yet the LSU coaching staff didn't care at all.

I've been wondering the same thing. It distracts me every time you post.

He's going the be THE BEST one and with the young talent we have at that position, that's not an insult to them- just a compliment to Dup.

Yes he did. Had to stop, turn to catch, then turn and start running again. Saying he looked slow right there is dumb.

Don't worry about him, he is one of the Quinn slobbers no doubt. I really thought Quinn was our 2nd best WR, but that has not happened yet. I think he could really eat in the slot, and we should go four wide shotgun a lot more going forward with all these guys on the field.

Before the season, I had Dupre at 450 yards and 5 TDs, if he keeps progressing, he could easily beat that.

I didn't have a strong opinion about Dupre, but my opinions on a lot of these young players is that they probably won't play because they're not likely to be better than other young guys who already have a year or two in the system.

And if Tre, Dupree, Quinn, Davon, etc prove me wrong, it just means they are superstars in the making. That's a good thing.

no doubt, where that come from? odds are you slob Dupre, he's in your fricking avi.

not meant to bag Dupre but he did look slow if you consider the spacing, watch it again. thought his injury might still be bothering him.
