re: LSU looking at Diarse to play safety?

recruits do read message board such as Tigerdroppings after all.

I think many do but he really doesn't own up to it. Look at what the next sentence was:

"Some guys on Tiger Droppings (an LSU message board) got a hold of it, and it was kind of a big controversy where everyone was saying that's where I was going, and the story kind of blew up.

"People called me asking me about it, but I'm not gonna make my decision off of that. That's just who I was going for in that game."

As far as whether he'll play offense or defense, I like him at safety but nobody has seen very much of him playing receiver since his freshman year.

Here is the highlight tape from the 2009 championship. He is #13.

He scores playing receiver at about 3:20 then he has an interception on the very next highlight. That INT makes me think he'd be a great safety or receiver. He also scores on a long pass play down the right sideline on the next highlight. On the INT he plays the tip perfectly and on the second TD he goes up and gets the ball over a defender.

It's crazy that this is a team championship highlight and a freshman makes these plays.

I really think he'll be good wherever he goes. I hope it's LSU but even his quotes in this article sound similar to the LC "set up" quotes.
