This boy can play anywhere in the back field on both sides of the ball, and any receiver position. No matter where he goes, he will be an instant different maker. LSU needs to make sure he doesn't "slip through the cracks".

Having seen him a couple times [only] I agree. He's a natural playmaker with playmaker instincts AND tons of athletic ability.

On the two sport thing...
I've heard that CEO is much more open to 2 sport athletes than the previous coach. I hope that is the case. He can be a contributor on the diamond as well as the gridiron.

Miles flew to Omaha to support Chad Jones and Jared Mitchell. He fully supported Donte, Bennie Brazell, Trindon, Spencer Ware, and the several other 2-sport athletes during his tenure.
