As far as late additions go, it's hard to be too mad at this one. It's essentially a lottery ticket. Crazy high upside, and if he doesn't pan out, oh well.

basically. if he can put on good weight, the sky is the limit. luckily he can sit for 2-3 years to develop

if not, oh well. no big loss

6'6" with what appears to be a 7'0"ish wingspan and runs an 11.1 100m.

If this kid has good bend around the edge and adds a bunch of good weight, he could absolutely be a monster.

Definitely a VERY high ceiling and a low floor if he can't add weight. We'll see.

Spiegs: “People don’t realize newest #LSU signee Desmond Little (out of Alabama) was one of the key visitors during LSU’s elite camp. Staff loved him then, and when the numbers worked out, they quietly added one of the top remaining edge rushers to their 25-man class”

The late back up plan player usually turns out to be a contributor. Russel Gage and Foster Moreau for example.

He has verified times of an 11.16 100-meter dash, a 23.30 200-meter dash and a 58.84 400-meter dash. He also has a verified 12-foot, nine-inch long jump - making him one of the more intriguing prospects left on the board as National Signing Day rolled in.


Those numbers can't be right, especially the long jump. Really pedestrian. That long jump has to be 22 feet, right?

You gotta give it to O, way to stay on top of things and have some backup plans. This is a serious left-fielder at a position of need.

maybe Fonua bulks up to 280 and we have a Buck, 2 DEs, and a NT in this class.

O went deep into the hood for this one. Vigor High School, produced former Auburn great Lectron Williams.

This is great, Just wondering did he ever visit LSU? How do these last-minute scenarios happen?

Legit offer list. I like it
Likewise.

Obviously a likely RS candidate to add weight, but seems to be a legit player. His size is likely why he was a 3*. That can be remedied and he'll have a year in the system before he's truly needed for depth/contribution.

Could be a Chaisson/Key type player with another 25-30 lbs

Speed and frame is def there

Could he have been Alabama's fallback plan if they didn't get ISH?

Probably a standing long jump without running. 400m isn’ that great but he obviously won’t be running that far for us.

Can he catch? Looks like he would be a good tight end.
