re: John Emery Jr. LA's top RB prospect for the '18 class

He's a kid and a kids mind changes with the wind. People have to understand that questions are being asked to these kids and they are giving kid answers, which is why it doesn't make much sense. I'll leave it up to our coaches to show him the way. If LSU were to get all 3 of these top 10 backs, which could happen, then they will all be featured, and won't have much wear and tear, which is exactly what he's looking for. Perfect for LSU IMO. He will have to come in and put in work to beat out who's already here and who will come in with him.

IMO they should RS all 3 unless we need one or two of them. We'll see what we have this year but I think the backs we already have will surprise people. LSU probably got the best all around back in the country last year. Power, good cutting ability, some speed, can catch, and block. LSU has some great backs. They just aren't national names.

LSU needs to continue to focus on shoring up the CB position, QB position, and develop an offense. We do that and everything will fall into place. We have some of the best recruiters/coaches on staff now. They all have help and can focus efforts on the players and future players instead of game planning for the season. Huge advantage that we didn't have previously. Better coaches, better recruiters, and more help should take us where we want to be.
