We took 6 two years ago - only 2 last year & both Beckwith & Jones have been moved from LB to DE & FB.

From the 6 LBer class of '12, Feist appears to be MIA, Riley looks to have a ceiling of special teams, & while I love the speed & fire of Debo Jones, he is too light in the britches to be an every down LB, IMHO. Dude looks like a safety out there. (With his speed, not sure why he doesn't get a look @ SS. He's 6' 205 sopping wet w/ 4.5 speed. Has the measurables of Jamal Adams - but I'm not sure if he can cover or not.)

Riley was last year, but Granier was the 6th from 2012 and is already gone.

Feist is redshirting. It's not easy going from DE in high school to MLB in the SEC. Same goes for why Beckwith didn't get many snaps there.

And Riley was in his true freshman year. Way to jump the gun a player with several more years left.

What??? aren't you a stickler for talent observation glad your not making any decisions for LSU! Debo is like 215 now and you have no clue how Riley may or may not perform, dude has skills and heart, has form tackling too, they are both too young. Chief just likes Vets out there........ They will both play. Simply put we are stacking up some depth and talent and will play the best 3 we have period. Never know who tgat might be year to year, I think our LBer core next year will be unstoppable!! Depth everywhere, and one more year in the system. These kids can mature and a light come on in a year, debo could be the best on the field next year??? Never know?
