You seem stuck on the Logan comparison when all of us are confused by your comparison of a former LSU player that redshirted in 2012.
Did he hook up with your mom or something? There is something you are not telling us. But then again, we don't really care about your opinion.

You made it, I called it out as being dumb because it was. They are nothing similar.

And was on the team still in 2013, and was behind FOUR guys who were either sophmores or younger. It's not like he was behind a few seniors and juniors...FOUR guys who were essentially his age or younger.

Phillips was behind 4 guys at OLB that were THE SAME CLASS he is or younger when he was here.
4 guys. Not seniors, not juniors, sophomores or younger.
WOW! You need to stop while you are ahead. If you stop talking now, no one will ever know.
You do know the 5th LBer is 2nd team, right? I bet you are ecstatic you are not judged on your job or in life like you can judge our Tigers.

His skillset had him behind everyone who was a sophomore when he was here his 2nd year and even a true freshman
And Beckwith's skill set had him behind Welter. Guess he should have been cut, right?

I think it was just a post he made with barely any critical thinking involved. But now poster is defending himself while wishing for the thread to be deleted.

OLB not LB.
He was behind 4 OLB's, and that's just counting the guys who were sophomores and freshmen. NOT the upper classmen at that time.
The #5 OLB is not 2nd string, and he wasnt even that.

Beckwith was at DE as a freshman and got moved to MLB this year. It's not a position you just jump into and start ESPECIALLY when there is a returning starter considering you line up the defense. Also, Beckwith took what, just half a season to take over for a returning senior starter? That means he is actually good, Phillips was not only behind upper classmen his 2nd year but behind THREE sophomores and 1 true freshman.
That comparison was even dumber than the Bennie Logan one.
How do you some of not understand a guy being young and being behind a bunch of other young guys is NOT the same as a young guy behind experienced upperclassmen starters?

Horrible explaination. You've gone full-blown idiot mode. I don't think anyone really cares about your opinion on football.
Are you a soccer fan that passes time in the fall with football?
You are forcing way too many ridiculous opinions upon the rant where you are losing credibility per post.
So stupid.

Will probably end up at A&M
Bama is supposedly waiting in the tall grass for Phillips, looking for 2 more LBs. They just recently checked in on him at EMCC.
Guessing they are either waiting on grades or seeing what spots they have available.

Players progress at different paces at different times. Just because he came in skinny doesnt mean that he doesnt have the skill or talent to play, it just means that he needs time.
All of this is rudimentary reasoning.

Are you really talking about misspelling when you can't even put a sentence together?
You can't make this shite up.
I was wrong. You aren't choosing to be an a-hole or clueless; You are guilty of being both.
I suppose spell check could've helped me, but it cannot help you put a sentence together, nor can it help you have a clue about football, kid.
ETA: I was tired of you, but you're funny.....I think I want more. Had enough, yet? Good talk, dipshit. :lol:

I just don't think we need a JUCO LB unless he is a no-doubt instant-impact guy, which I don't see in Phillips. We are also pretty deep at OLB, and from what I have read recently Phillips may not even be a take for aTm anymore.

Pretty much what thunderbird was trying to say until he got de-nutted

Not so. MLB looks okay but OLB is not deep. The problem with some ranters is that they look at this year's LB depth, but never take into account for the years ahead.
You should be recruiting this year for 2016/2017 depth so you won't be forced to plug a freshman into a starting role, right away. even though you have to sometimes.
This is why Thunderbird is not only wrong, but completely stupid on so many levels. But since she's worried about spellcheck, I don't see her in this thread but making her case somewhere else, where someone else may listen.
2015 LB
Lamar Louis 6-0 225 sr
Deion Jones 6-2 225 sr
Duke Riley 6-1 220 jr
Kendall Beckwith 6-3 235 jr
Clifton Garrett 6-2 230 so
Ronnie Fiest 6-2 230 jr
Kwon Alexander 6-1 230 sr
Donnie Alexander 6-2 220 so
2016 LB
Duke Riley 6-1 225 jr
Kendall Beckwith 6-3 245 sr
Clifton Garrett 6-2 230 jr
Ronnie Fiest 6-2 230 sr
Donnie Alexander 6-2 225 jr
This is why prospects like Malik Jefferson, John Houston and Roquan Smith are so important....More so than K. Lucier Smith or Porter Gustin, as I don't think they are Chavis-mold OLB's.
Whether any of these three are even close to considering LSU is another story, but they are huge needs.

Since he's already been at LSU for 2 years, our coaches know exactly what he can do / what type of player he is. If they don't even offer him, that should tell you everything you need to know. They have seen this kid everyday for practice, workouts, film sessions, meetings, etc for 2 seasons. If they don't even offer him after seeing him for 2 years, they don't think he will have an impact for us.
And TAMU has backed off of him as well.
I have no idea where he will end up.

The last thing we need is 400 linebackers all graduating at the same time. We have lot's of linebacker depth between now and when LP would depart. We need freshman talent at LB, not juniors.

The conversation was well over by the time you made this comparison to Bennie Logan. That right there showed you didn't have clue #1 what you were talking about. After it was clearly explained to you why that was a dumb comparison you continued to self destruct like the mental midget you are. At this point you just look like a lost puppy.
