What are y’all’s thoughts on this kid

He’s visiting us in a few weeks and our new defensive staff seems pretty much all in.

That being said, at least on his first round of visits, I don’t see much sec interest. I always find that curious for a southern kid….

Is he any good?

I think impressing the Many coaching staff will be a factor as well in his recruiting. Many is a small school power that got no love from the previous regime is my understanding. That's basically internet talk but I am sure there is some truth to it

FWIW mods on premium sites have mentioned O had no chance to get Tackett. Even Tackett mentioned about not liking the LSU culture when he was around and where things were headed, so as long as O was here we never had a shot with Tackett.

Wisconsin and other B10 schools have done a great job recruiting him early on which is why you see so much interest there. Tackett mentioned relationship building is huge with him and those schools have done the best job early on so his attention has mostly been there.

Kelly and staff are really going to have to blow things away for us to get back in it here. Not saying it's impossible but he is working against a few years of schools like Wisconsin working Tackett the right way. I wouldnt say Tackett is sold on leaving the state regardless but he certainly has no issue going far away.

Dude has a lot of POP. Looks stiff, but brings the wood.

I don't see how any kid in La doesn't dream of playing for LSU growing up. A lot of these kids have been pushed by someone else to go elsewhere because they didn't get the attention they thought they should've. Most of these kids don't amount to much and you never hear from them again after college.

These kids need to look at the bigger picture. Playing for LSU opens a lot doors after college if you don't make it to the pros. In another state they are just another football player.

I'll be really surprised if TC comes to LSU. LSU will just find another to fill their need. It won't make or break them.

I think O screwed us by not recruiting him and now we are too far behind. He seems to want to go out of state anyway but he would be one hell of a middle linebacker for LSU.

I'm a coach, but I don't claim to be a great LB evaluator. Every time I see Tackett's tape, however, I see a big, strong, hard-hitting, stiff kid.

He has hard hits but zero hips.


Of course, I defer to the LSU staff.

He's very good, but I anticipate that this board will say the opposite, given that it seems relatively unlikely he signs with LSU.

He may get lots of targeting calls....he is a hitting machine.

An interesting take from OSU fans about comparison with LSU.

On Saturday in NOLA before the LSU-OSU National Championship 2007, I overheard three OSU guys comparing each teams’ RBs, defenses, offenses, etc and felt they were superior in all categories. Then one of them commented that there was one category that LSU was kicking their arse in. The other two asked in what category; his reply, “did you see LSU’s women?” All agreed.

So the moral of this story: all who sign with the Buckeyes will end up with an increased chance of dating plow horses. Good luck with that!
