This is going to be batted around a lot with the news of Hootie decommitting from Bama so let's get the facts straight.

Hootie is a SS prospect. Adams is a FS prospect. One is not the back-up plan for the other, and LSU will take BOTH in a heartbeat. Hootie showed more interest in LSU earlier while Jamal was considered a UT/UF battle, that's the only reason Jamal wasn't mentioned more here until Hootie committed elsewhere. It's coincidence. Their respective recruitments SHOULDN'T interfere with each other, but that will probably be spun as the case countless times here and on the SECrb. Don't take the bait. Don't make comments about which would you rather, and please don't say anything that could be taken as a flame toward either recruit for whatever reason.

Geaux Tigers and let's get em both.

In Frank Wilson We Trust.

Plus this gives us more options with Voorhies, who can also be a badass linebacker or offensive player if need be.

Absolutely right. There is still just as good of a chance we get neither than getting both, so regardless of the outcome, keep it classy folks.

Ed Paris
Tony Brown
Jamal Adams
Hootie Jones
John Battle
Devin Voorhies
And possibly Adoree' Jackson????

That would be the greatest DB haul I've ever seen

I wouldn't be surprised if Chavis turned Hootie into a OLB .. he has done it before

I truly believe that the Chief should (if he isn't already) refering to some of the 2011 season tapes of his third down dime set that pretty much just was a 3-1-7 package. We had the personel to run it and he did. Even an undersized Mingo was on the DL for that package and it was all about speed.

It brought a speed rush with blitzes from any and sometimes every direction into the mix and it worked! That package was often more fun to watch than Oregon's offense against a Pac D.

This is why the staff can pull so many guys in the secondary for this class... they will use them if they are worthy of seeing the field. History has proven this and that is the best recruiting tool that we might have in this situation where we are looking at a half dozen blue chip DBs.



On a side note, couldn't Hootie play as a strong side OLB anyway?

wat? Yeah they will be recruited at diff positions but we put the press on adams because hootie committed to bama. That isnt a coincidence. So all of a sudden adams is interested in LSu and visits twice in 2 weeks AFTER hootie was gone. yet you think its just a coincidence? No, i have to disagree.
