Ok....I may be in the dark here. But someone please explain to me how the #4 rated RB by Rivals is not on our commitment board. This guy has proclaimed all year his intention of going to LSU. Is there something keeping him off Miles "must have" list?

Since when do we not carry at least 3 top notch RBs?

Seastrunk next year too.

Also, I look for LSU to gravitate more into a spread team the longer Crowton stays.

I just hate to see a guy with this much talent and the desire to play at LSU get passed over.

Do they all need to be in the same class?

We will presumably have Scott and Williams back next year.

Scott Sr
Williams Sr
Murphy Jr
Ridley So
Ford Fr
Pratt Fr

I think 6 quality tailbacks is a pretty good number. Instead of taking 3 this year, you take 2 next year and your numbers are spread out a little better in order to take advantage of each players eligibility properly.

Have a hard time listening to someone that said Ford sucked.

i promise you, since 1989, C Michael has been brought up 3 times a day, every day, for the past 9 years.

Not saying we sign 3 top notch RBs every year. But we carry at least that many on our roster.

The only problem I have with not taking Michael is taking Allen. If you want to take Ford and Pratt as your only 2 RB, counting on getting another top notch guy next year, then that's fine. But if you want to add a FB, why not make Pratt a FB (He'd be a beast as a FB) and take Michael.

Not bashing Allen, b/c he'll be a good FB I think, I just like the other combo better.

Same reason he's not on ours.
