I don't think you understand what "must get" means. But I def want him in purple and gold.

He's not coming to LSU and he was never coming to LSU

But we all appreciate his pops putting his highlight videos on here for us to see

I especially appreciate his dad using this and other forums to shamelessly beg for LSU to offer just so that they could be indifferent towards it when it came.

I'm not sure he's really interested in us to be honest.

I'm not sure what he would even be in this offense. Has he considered playing defense?

I wonder why though? The kid is insanely athletic so he would get a ton of offers regardless.

He would do well at RB, WR, and DB. On offense, he fits that Jalin Marshall, Artavis Scott, Pharoah Cooper, etc mold.

Same thing we did with Shepard. Wildcat, at RB, at WR. That dimension we added with Dural, could easily be used with Merritt.

We already have three RB commits. Is Kirk a RB, WR, or a DB? What position does he want to play if anyone knows?

I wish his dad would give us an update, but he has not posted in a while it seems.

IIRC his dad was pretty clear he liked LSU but wouldn't try to steer it. No need to take jabs when for all we know Kirk himself never wanted the LSU offer.

Not a must get although he's obviously an outstanding athlete. Last I heard, he's not considering LSU much at all. A&M, Bama, Oregon, Notre Dame are the ones I most recently heard are his favorites.

Kid should come to LSU and play safety and leave as a high round draft pick in 3 years.

if he doesn't come here, which I highly doubt he does, I'd like to see him at Oregon. He'd be De'eathony Thomas vr 1.1.5. Maybe not as good as the first, but fun to watch in that offense.

bullshite thing to say. I never took it that way.

Even if there is any truth to that, as a father, getting your kid exposure is important.

Yeah I respect his father for aiding his son in getting his tape out there.
