Who is it going to be? Baker? Minter? Francois? Barrow? The one white guy?

Maybe throw in Taj too.

Hatcher might be moving down or one DB Miles mentioned was moving down
Baker probably moves to middle and Barrow would take outside or possibly Maclin unless they want him as DE

Hatcher can't cover anyone so that's probably a good move. Let's just make sure he doesn't knock our defensive linemen out by accident.

Isn't Baker too small.
I thought Minter would take over MlB.

i thought it was Baker, Minter, and Francois. but i guess if one of the DBs moves up to LB they could take a spot. otherwise i'm pretty sure that's it.
that being said i hope these youngsters can pick up their game quick because this is a weak spot for us.

I think moving Hatcher to LB would be a great move.

WLB: Baker
MLB: Minter
SLB: Francois
2nd group
WLB: Barrow
MLB: Muncie
SLB: Jones
Welter, Randle, Johns, and Hatcher (?) could all get reps.

The thing about Hatcher, the guy can hit. He learns to wrap up, and he can really contribute at LB.

I think we will be fine at LB. Chavis knows how to coach these guys and we actually have a ton of different guys that have the potential to really progress and step up.

He can't tackle either. Masoli got away from him easily. Wait, he did a good job tackling his own DB's on that other busted play against Ole Miss.
Best place for him is the bench.
DJ Welter should be coming along.

I don't get posts like this sometimes. The dude had one bad game (albeit a memorable one). He's been solid since his freshman year in spot duty at safety and on special teams. Cut the guy a little slack. I guarantee you no one feels worse than him for getting burned.

hear is what I've heard...
Baker may or may not move to the middle depending upon Mintor's development (mental) with Welter being the 2nd or 3rd guy
if Minter comes along as expected he will play MIKE and Baker will be the WILL backer
if not look for Baker to move to the middle and the MIKE position will be between Muncie, Barrow and Randle in no certain order...Barrow being the leading prospect just because of PT there last year.
SAM backer.. here is what i was told..if Johns had not gotten hurt he would have gotten a more serious look there and may have started by the end of the season and that he is the best cover backer they have. Johns would have been ahead of Tahj because Tahj has not crossed the 200lbs threshold..Francios was just "not active" as a linebacker and out of position a lot!

Tahj is now up to 205lbs.

What's the latest on Maclin?
Posted on 1/25/11 at 4:57 pm to lsugang
lsu sports.net lists him at 205 so i don't know.
Posted on 1/25/11 at 4:57 pm to GeauxWolverines
I think Barrow is going to take Minter's spot, IMO.
Posted on 1/25/11 at 5:01 pm to deuce985
Welter is not being mentioned when he will have the biggest impact of the ones who haven't played
