That's Seems like to me your post about Alleman was relevant to the offer of a scholarship to Gamble...and certainly there is a big ? mark about Hairston considering he has yet to kick 1 single college FG.
BTW, here is something I will bring up again later, but apparently 24/7 for an "unrated" player like Gamble assigns a 70 to the composite ranking of the guy. That is why LSU went from an average of almost 91.5 to one less than 90. Wow!! Won't go through the math but that SUCKS! Just because a guy isn't ranked doesn't mean he is a nothing player but that is how they counted Gamble! Of course, they do that to other unranked players also but that is steep punishment to say the least. IMO, that brings their entire rating system to a level of no integrity. IF you want to not rate a player, then don't count him in the average. If you want to rate everyone, then do that. But don't just say, "oh, we don't want to create a rating for him so we will just arbitrarily assign him a horrible score of 70"

He'll probably end up a 3 star with a rating around 80.
Scouting kickers and punters isn't their forte. But I'm sure Gamble will get bumped up eventually.

A kicker. That's the BOOM I'm talking about.

im happy for the kid and hopefully it pays off for us. it's unfortunately that the greatest game known to man is still often times decided by soccer players. it just shows you that nothing is perfect in life. viva fOOtball! viva LSU!
ever wonder why we're the only country in the world that doesn't embrace this "sport"? just a coincidence?

No because we embrace Real Man Football here. The real question is why don't we embrace Rugby? Now that is a mans game.

Huge leg on that kid. I hate sound like I'm stereotyping but is he a threat on that fake behind the back bounce toss play that Les debuted in Florida a few years ago?
Gotta love that play

Yeah, to be fair to them after what I said, the services all pretty much give 0 respect for kickers....which IMO is total nonsense. I think the Alabama kicker got like 2 or 3 offers total, so Rivals soared him to a 5.5 or something. (low 3*)

I guessed we wouldn't offer but congrats to Gamble even though it is a foreboding last name for a kicker
Well..... What did you expect?
Gamble.>>>>>>> Riverboat Gambler = A match made in heaven!

He has got nice thick thighs for distance & may have a little speed on a fake play. Nice pick up CLM
