QB - I would try to get both Alford and Winston and hope at least one plays college ball. But I'm sure every Tiger fan would love that. I'm really hopeing that the staff is staying on Cyler Miles and can get him to flip from Washington just in case LSU can't get both MLB prospects. I actually like Cyler a little mote than alford or Winston. Id really like to get Cyler on board regardless of the other two.

RB - I know LSU told bourque he is the only RB they take but I don't know if they would turn down Brian Kimbrow or T.J. Yeldon if they wanted to commit but I do think bourque is the only RB they end up with. They probly aren't recruiting anyone else at the RB position hard anymore.

WR - I can see them taking one more and I would like to see a big fish from OOS like Jaquay Williams, Davonte Neal, Marvin Bracy, Dvario Montgomery, or Jason Croom. I like Jaquay and Davario but I think if they take one more it will be between Alonzo Moore or Dwayne Benjamin.

TE - I think LSU is done at TE with Ricky Parks commitment to Auburn unless they were able to flip him which I'm not sure they would put a lot of effort into that. Kent Taylor or Sean Price would be nice but I think LSU is done at TE.

OL - I think Derek Edinburgh is gonna be a Tiger. And though D.J. Humphries or John Theus would be nice, I'd be just as happy with Patrick Miller at OT along with Edinburgh and Hawkins. And it be great to get Vadal Alexander and Macho Nacho Garcia who I think both could be dominant guards at LSU but also play OT. I would love those 5 as an offensive line haul. I think those 5 would rival last years OL class.

DL - I see 2 or 3 DE. I love Channing Ward and hope LSU goes after him hard. Him, Denzell Devall( who I'm a little worried about but think the tigers end off with), and Toshiro Davis would be a sick DE group. Those three would be awesome and I ain't gonna rule it out though I think Denzell, Toshiro, and a third DE from Louisiana would be more likely. Just not sure who would get the offer. Would it be Julien Obioha, Alonzo Williams, Terell Latham, James Mcfarland, or another suprise from instate or maybe an OOS suprise. At DT I see 2 or 3 and I really like Nick James to be a dominant nose tackle takin up two gaps and letting all these linebackers fly to the ball. Pulling both the MS Dtackles would be amazing but very unlikely so whether they give out 1 or 2 more DT offers it would probly come down to instate guys like Gerron Borne, B.J. Singleton, Jacoby Briscoe, Marcel Andy, or others

LB - at LB I see Lorenzo Philips being the last guy even though I would like to see one more. A camp battle could decide between Otha Peters, Richie Brown, Deion Jones, and Lloyd Grogran. Even though Deion Jones is coming on strong I like either Otha Peters or Richie Brown if they take one more after Lorenzo Phillips.

DB - At safety London Collins is a must and probly the last one. Even though Quadry Antoine(who is committed to MS State but I'm sure LSU could put on the full court press and flip him) or Cyril Noland could sneak in I think Landon is the last one. Though I'm sure they wouldn't turn down a big fish like Deon Bush or Marcus Maye.( Travis Blanks committed to Clemson I think). Unless they can get a big fish like Tracy Howard, Chris Humes, or T.J. Davis; I think LSU is done at CB though one more wouldn't suprise me to see a camp battle bring one more. I like Trevon Stewart the most but I also believe they could flip Darion Monroe or Jordan Baptiste if they wanted to. I do think they are done at CB; but it wouldn't shock me to see a camp battle bring one of them an offer

Devall


It is not looking good for the us for him according to recent quotes;

"Nothing is new with LSU," he said. "It probably goes A&M, Alabama, Mississippi State, Arkansas and then LSU maybe."


ESPN Rumors so take it FWIW.

Richie Brown is the best LB in Mississippi and is on the same team as Nick James. He favors LSU at the moment and would be a great addition to the class.

I thought the 23 scholly limit was imposed for the last class. Why is it capped at 23 again this year?

I think Devalls decision will be on the positio he wants. From reading various sources, I think Devall really wants to play a hybrid role or strictly OLB but Lsu is recruiting him at DE only. Also yamamma has said he is up to like 250 which may not be ideal size for LB in our system. If he wants to play end he picks Lsu. If he wants to play LB in a 3-4 maybe he picks A&M or Bama.
