How does he compare to Simon? Is Simon looking elsewhere and JT the backup plan or is he considered equal to or better than Simon by the staff?

I don't think Lindsey is a backup plan. He is just too good to let leave the state. LSU is pretty light in the RB room right now anyway so taking 3 RBs this cycle makes sense.

Very comparable. I think it's more of not wanting any of the three backs (along with Berry obviously) leave the state, he has earned the offer and it's kind of a "Well if you're going to visit around Simon, then we're going to do our thing as well".

They want all three, but it's also you don't get caught with your pants down and wait too long on Lindsey and Simon winds up elsewhere and you're stuck with just one back, albeit one of the best the state has seen

On3 had Simon as the #8 RB, and has TJ as the #11 RB, in the ratings world Simon has been there for a while but TJ came out of nowhere to rise from a 3* to a 4* on 247. On3 watches these guys way more than 247 and have both in Top 12 RB.
CBK is trying to lock down the state and wants all 3 including Berry. No top end talent leaving state. Simon supposedly was fitn pop but is taking his visits but has been made aware that he is a Major want by Staff & LSU.

JT is no one's back up plan. It's not out of the realm of possibility that he ends up rated higher than Simon. JT has positioned himself to be the 3rd RB taken by LSU.
