How can the highschool recruiting world screw up the ratings of a player so bad?




who knows if they really did.


Normal Freshman who can't get on the field; let's wait and see, usually won't truly produce until Jr year. Give him a year or 2 in the program

Freshman that couldnt make an impact then leaves next year: He was terrible, he was fat, he was overrated.



Our fans are ridiculous. We didnt see enough of this kid to tell if he wasnt good or not.

He was getting out worked by walk ons for playing time in the spring, that's all on him. At Arizona Western JC he is 5th on the team in tackles among just their LINEBACKERS.

Sometimes guys are just massively overrated, hell, it happens to guys who go to the NFL too. Recruiting and Scouting are not exact sciences.

I would normally agree, but the simple fact that his landing spot was UAB tells me he likely wasnt very good.

Boo ya! Sound words that of course will be stricken down! But you already knew that. lol

Kid may nave been all big ten by now if he had decided to stay up north and avoid the climate adjustment that caused him serious problems. Who knows! Wish him well, I thank him for comin to LSU.

After his JC year, he could have gone anywhere he wanted. Don't you find it odd that the guy who recruited him (Chavis) didn't give him another look this time around?
