re: Check this kid out

I'm no recruiting expert by any means but while he doesn't possess the breakaway speed that so many of us covet, 80-90% of his catches were in traffic and tough ones at that. You need at least one of those on your team...sorta like an Early Doucet-type

He's definitely a good player. I'm sure he will do well wherever he ends up. I really did not mean to knock on the kid by saying he's not LSU material.
Let's be honest though, Is he better than Mike Davis/Justin Hunter/Martavious Lee/Trovon Reed? I don't see us taking 5 WR's this year, so he would definitely have to be better than one of those players (or Reed would have to say "no thanks" to our offer, and then he would have to be better than the next guy in line. Also, when he gets to LSU, is he ever going to see the field while playing behind the likes of Randle, Tolliver, Molton (who PP said was the only receiver he couldn't cover) and the previously mentioned recruits?
LSU is going to be incredibly stacked at WR when this class gets on campus. If I was anything less than a freak athlete, I would be really worried about the depth chart at WR.
I really didn't think my post was that abrasive, but soft wording has never been my forte'.

Your right we do need a player like that and this kid has great hands but I don't think LSU will have to go that for out of Louisiana if at all to find a player like that. Even if the tigers did want him I don't believe there is any room for the kid. How well does he play safety? I know he will end up going some where I wish him well.
