After his dominating performances at the Army practices, the Rivals people are seriously considering moving Fluker to #1. He is all over their national website.

I hope this means that rivals is no longer confident that Randle will be a gump. No way they would demote a player they thought the gumps would get.

I don't know if it will happen or not, but anybody thinking it's out of the question either hasn't watched his film or is just being a homer.

One could easily make the argument that he should be #1.

-mammoth size: 6-freakin'-7, 350
-speed: 4.9...and just beat our Davenport (5.27) in the 20 yd race
-By speed comparison, Morgan Moses almost identical in size runs a 5.2
-I haven't seen that many pancake blocks on film in the run or pass since Andre Smith in HS or Orlando Pace coming out of college
-new word that he is dominating other HS all-stars confirms he is elite amongst elites.


Sure he is a Gump right now, so what? Bryce Brown is a Hurricane, and I could argue that B.B. should be #1, too. To say emphatically that Fluker won't be #1 is just absurd, when clearly his talent demands he be in the mix with Randle, Shep, & Bryce.

The guy will have a HUGE impact on which ever team he sign with. I have been saying I would trade him for just about anyone (minus some of course). Put him on the oline and your offense just got really good.

deserving if so....dominating top level competition at the camp. if not #1, then top 5 should suffice.

Fluker to number 1 increases the likelihood that Randle has become an LSU lean. I like it.


In all honesty, he can have number 1 on rivals. He's a pretty dominating O-lineman. Congrats to the guy and hopefully we can sway him. (Please don't like that Bama lock shite debate again cuz I didn't say I'm gettin my hopes up).

you damn gumps just wont lay down and take a arse whoopin like a man...1st you claim the Recruiting NC and want trophies and certificates, The you blow rivals for extra star ratings on players that dont pan out. Now you want your Prized 6 star recruit to get the #1 player in the nation, at OLine?! OMFG! are you serious?! Whats next?! 5 star punters???

So your telling me that Fluker, ranked #22 overall and has already committed, will move up past Randle (who is uncommitted; 5* WR) to the top spot. This is Highly Doubtful.

This could be a plus: Rueben Randle might have become an LSU lean/lock, so Rivals needs another Alabama recruit to be #1.
