Who are the remaining targets outside of the known guys?

Anyone who is not a “known guy” at this point is most likely going to be a senior eval type of player. Nothing wrong with that as lots of guys get offers after coaches see them as seniors. We’ll know more by October.

Wiltfong said we lead for Darius gray. Expects Jase Mathews to pop for us soon. Also expects us to try and flip a QB and TE in the fall.

5* S Blaine Bradford (thinking we can flip before NSD)

5* IOL Darius Gray (should be LSU)
4* WR Jase Matthews (should be LSU)
4* DL Deuce Geralds (LSU or Ohio St)
4* DL Emanuel Ruffin (LSU or Ohio St)
3* DL Demarcus Johnson (#2 CC Player)
3* DL Darryus McKinley (doubt enough room)

Of these 7 I expect LSU to land Gray, Matthews, and one of Geralds or Ruffin. My guess is Johnson and McKinley don’t make it in, with such a stacked DL class. Big part of me wants to say we land Bradford before the ink dries.

I hope you are right but hope we get McKinney in too. Louisiana 3 stars brothers have a history of being great Tiger players!

If McKinley wants on the team he will make it.

If LSU can also land Gray, Matthews and Geralds then that would be a cherry on top of this recruiting class. And of course flipping Blaine Bradford lol

Swing for the fences all try to grab all of the them. You can never have to many defensive lineman in the sec

Gavin Higgins is the #1 kicker in LA and he's expected to sign with us as well. They're checking all the boxes of upcoming needs with this class.

I know, I meant not enough room in the sense we have 4 guys committed on the D-line and 2 guys that fit the billing of more interior D-line guys. Landing Ruffin or Geralds or both pushes that number to 5-6 D-line commits with 3-4 being interior guys. I’m not sure McKinley would go into such a stacked D-line class.

Are there still "gray shirts"? IF we needed him to wait, he might.

Are we expecting to add a RB in the class?

If we get Gray, Matthew's, and Gerald's, the rest is lagniappe! I am not getting my hopes up for Bradford.

Love this class.

I don't think it should be a priority
Durham, Jackson, Berry, Lindsey, & Holly(?), all returning, I think unless a very good one falls into their lap, they might use it for another position.

Also more smoke Keys may flip
Hope he sticks but getting Jase more important now.

I think JaMichael Garrett out of Central jumps in eventually. Missing on Bush kinda helps that cause but taking four LBs last cycle might may make home a pass too.

And I think Darryus McKinley gets in if he wants to follow his big brother to BR. That was probably part of the deal last year.

Another in state kid I’d like to see get a shot is Alvin Celestin out of Houma. The kid can skat but that’s a deep roster we have put together.

JaMichael Garrett was the one name I expected to see on your list.

On On3, they’re giving Auburn the highest percentage, by far.

Is LSU not that interested? He seems like a good prospect.
