I think he's only a 3 star because he's so much closer to his ceiling than a lot of other guys. He doesn't have a lot of areas to improve because he's just about maxed out. What you see is what you get. And while what you'll get is a good player, there are other guys that have more potential because they are more raw.

This is exactly what I came here to post.

It's not to say that he isn't a great player; only that his potential may not be as great as others (who are, at this stage, not on his level).

if this is the case then he should be a 5 star and he should come in and be able to start as a freshman...as a middle linebacker by trade i seriously disagree with your assessment of Duke...he has not even touched the surface of his potential...I will bookmark this post and we will revisit this when he is a junior should he decide to commit to LSU...
