Rosenthal


Rosenthal will be on the OL for LSU, with certainty. I know there is a faction on this board that doesn't care for Jimmy Deets, but the guy is a stellar talent evaluator and he has Rosenthal rated much higher on offense than defense. And he's not alone. Alabama wants him badly on their offensive line as well.

I've been expecting a few decommits myself before the final push really heats up. Hopefully that means there really are some big name silent commits, and we have some strong feelings about other prospects who are still highly contested.

It would seem that his measurables say OT and that's what a lot of posters want and believe. But hasn't it been said often on here that he wants to play DE? In fact, wasn't it said that one reason he eliminated Alabama was that they insisted on OT? So, if that's what he wants, then it would seem likely he would start at DE and not move unless/until he sees for himself that he would be better off on the other side.

For whatever it's worth, I think he would be a better fit at OT and better off there as well. Those are premium positions of need and through tickets to the NFL; DE not as much.

247 dropped Rosenthal like a rock when evaluating him as a DT vs OT. Whoever he signs with will eventually talk some sense into him.
Kid could easily become a 1st rounder at LT.

how can he have grade issues. He's a JUCO now
Wondered this myself. At some point intellectual honesty has to overcome wishful thinking... a grade risk as a JUCO transfer is likely a unicorn.

Don't know about certainty, but I'd damn sure like to see it... for his sake and LSU's.
