Is anyone hearing that this guy will make the grades or ACT score?
I'm asking because I feel like I have a very good source that is telling me he has a very low ACT and very low gpa. I was just trying to see if anyone else had heard the same thing.

I know he took the ACT about 4 weeks ago, have no idea about gpa or test score.

Well, from what I understand, if he were to take the ACT again and get the score necessary to qualify, it would raise a few red flags given his first score. As far as gpa, I understand that its in the area of the age equivalent, in years, of an 18 month old.

Hadnt heard any numbers, just heard this years grades are much better which is usually what happens once the kid realizes he can play on the next level. However, three years of bad grades I would imagine would be tough to bring up.

This program being LSU??
Really? Think about the kids that Les has "passed" on due to grade issues. IF anything, Les is TOO picky concerning grades, but I think he nails it most of the time.

you are joking right? yeah, he passed on a couple, but it seems we are always sweating out a last minute ACT or waiting to hear from the Clearinghouse about some stud.... LOSTON? KEILAND?

Two players in five years and you say it "always" happen.

Dez Bryant? Noel Devine? See how easy it is to play that game? There's two in five years Miles was too picky on..

You need to look at Les' record of trying to get guys without grade issues compared to other major programs. We passed on Sentimore and Lacy last year, which look like mistakes now.
Pick up a copy of Meat Market and give it a quick read. It is a real page turner.

Per my source, this is also VERY much the case.

Per my source:
He did not attend a class for the second week in a row that is given to students to help better their ACT score. The reason he gives is that he might have done well enough the last time he took the test so he would be wasting his time going to the class.
This, from a guy whose score was barely that of the age of the youngest teenager on this last attempt. Supposedly, it is taking longer for his score to come in from his last test because he did not fill out his paperwork correctly, and its causing a delay in him getting his score.

Things really worked out well for Bryant at OKIE ST. huh? Any coincidence that it's always the La. recruits having grade issues? What are we like 49/50 in public school educaton!?!?
