Seems like there was a big deal that year where we were hoping to get 5 blue chippers at one of the all star games and Fournette committed to LSU but most of the others didn't.

I can't for the life of me remember the others. Was Adams one? What happened to the others? Did they all come out as Jrs or are some still playing? How did they do in the draft?

5 for 5 turned into 2 for 5 when we got Fournette and Adams and "lost" on hootie jones, speedy noil, and I believe Tony Brown.

Not even biased when I say lsu got the best out of that deal.

I'm pretty sure Adams and LF7 were the two we got. One of them was Tony Brown who to my knowledge is having to return to bama for his senior year because he has been pretty mediocre and had to compete for playing time. One was an OL that went to Florida and hasn't been significant enough for me to remember his name. The 5th guy escapes me altogether

On that day Jamal and Leonard committed to LSU. You could make an argument that they're the best to ever play their position for LSU

Tony Brown burned us for Bama. He was considered a huge LSU lean because his sister ran track here. Hunter Renfrow burned his arse for a national title. Very overrated, speed for days but terrible instincts.

Speedy Noil went to A&M, his career went "up in smoke". His big thing was he didn't want to go to "Leonard Fournette University" instead he went to "Were owned by Leonard Fournette University"

Gerald Willis went to UF. After fighting teammate skyler mornhinweg and punching James Winston (as Winston ran out of bounds, Willis wasn't even playing) he finished his career at UF with more QB hits off the field than on. He's now at Miami. We thought this one hurt the most because we were depleted on the Dline. Remember Godchaux and Lac were starting as freshman that next year? Doesn't matter, kids a head case and would have been dismissed very quickly.
