solid 4.5 speed with elusive abilities, not quite Alabama's receiver, I forget his name as far as strength, but will be with time training at LSU. so I say, yes.

most definately! remember guys, Randle has a pretty high GPA and also switched to QB for his Sr year, so I think he'll easily get a handle on the play book faster than most....

Yes, absolutely. Most bama fans will say something dumb like "we already had Julio so we didn't want him". That's ignorance and jealousy though. He's absolutely a game changer, playmaker, etc.

By his junior year (assuming everything goes as planned and nothing dumb happens) he'll be 1 of the best WR's in the SEC/Nation.

Film I have seen of him, he has excellent hands. Extremely solid and runs very well after the catch. Will be a Wendell Davis with Josh Reed ability to run after the catch IMO.

Not in his freshman year, but with single coverage he will surely get a fair share of balls and be open quite a bit. He will be the 3rd or 4th option after Toliver though so don't look for him to be primary. JJ will have to check way down in order to get the ball to Randle.

Will be interesting to see if JoJo is double covered on every play, if so, some teams are going to get hurt by LSU's other talented players. If they don't double JoJo, he's going to be open all day long and have a banner year. Pick your poison.

It's as if the article is trying to make you think that he won't be as good because he has to share balls. All this means is that it will be harder to cover our receivers because we have so many weapons. I mean would you rather have 3 badass wide receivers or 1?

I'm hardly an expert, but you don't have to be one to see that the team we're all chasing—Florida—was stocked with "game changing" players in 2008. Seems to me that by adding Sheppard and Randle and maybe a semi-sleeper (Calhoun? Ford?), we're getting there. 'Course, neither of these kids has played a down at LSU, so yeah, it's speculation at this point ... but it's pretty much a given we'll have an explosive, high octane offense the next couple years, like what we saw from the Gators in 2008. Can't wait for the fun to begin.

tell you what if he could catch 45 to 55 passes this year he is going to have over 1000 yards why you ask cause he will get the single coverage cause of jo jo lafell and tolliver so he will do just fine.

He better be after costing us two quality receivers.

Wonder if dad will make the starting line up next year.

Hope he is the real deal.

Doesn't feel good yet!!!!!!
