But is a 4* DT worth 2 Scholarships

Something to think?
Take ISH OUT OF IT

If another 4**** stated, take my brother also, who isn't good enough, and I'll come, do you???

Ish may have just held out too long?
Is the reward worth 2 Spots, and I'm not sure it is?

Your hypothetical player isn't worth 2 scholarships no matter how many arbitrary stars are next to his name.

Ish has the talent to be the difference maker like Lavalais was. Not sure he will be motivated enough.

Then it makes even less sense.

Small towns produce players in cycles.

I want players that actually WANT to be at LSU and play at LSU.

If that’s Ish and Rodney (and I hope it is) then great, but when a recruit starts laying out stipulations like that, it’s a weird sign. LF7 was worth it but is Ish on that same level of talent?

Well, I'd give up 2 scholarships to land Pickering...so, yes.

There is a lot more to the question:

Is he in state?
Is your most hated rival getting a foothold in the area?
Is he at a position of NEED?
Have you met your OTHER needs?

etc

Guys, I get it that some of us don't like the deal, but it's time to accept it that it WILL happen if the opportunity presents itself, and right now it's looking likely.

It seems the message board consensus is that Rodney is subpar and his scholarship is basically thrown away to get Ish. Pardon my ignorance, but how does everyone know? I haven't read any kind of scouting report on the guy.

So you think with us just getting him and possibly Lee that Amite will now be a LSU hot bed?

Name me Amite players that have done anything other than ya boy at Alabama?

Thank you for the info, as always! With 6 spots available, LSU could get the 3 from Amite, Parker, Hampton, and still get a MS DL or Fuller from FL.

i was hoping to see LSU land Pickens, but sounds as though that isn't likely at this point.

Can he play DE? Because I don’t see NT as a position of need

Yep, the whole “have to win over Amite” thing has already been debunked. They have had 3 P5 players over the last how many years? They have maybe 1 in the next 2 years that will get P5 looks as of now.

If it’s about locking down amite, which players in the next 3-4 years do they have that will be major targets?
