He didn’t say who, but people have assumed Berry.

Why do you think people assume Berry? 2 reasons. He's not from Louisiana and, more importantly, he's our lowest rated DL commit. There is no factual basis, that I've seen, for this assumption.
quote:

We would not be able to land Gaye, Berry, Taylor, Guillory, Lee, Roy, and Jenkins

I thought I read Gaye could end up on offense and Taylor hasn't committed yet. For all we know, Jenkins just took Taylor's spot.

Anyway, the numbers will work themselves out in the end, but I don't think it's right to say a particular guy is going to be out, just based on unsubstantiated message board chatter.

As for Berry, in particular, I'm not sure why his rating has dropped, but at one point he was a borderline 5*. Maybe he was just an early developer, maybe he's had an injury or two, maybe he just doesn't camp much.

So that’s 18 for the class. Optimally we keep 1 spot for a RB and another for Lathan Ransom or another safety. 3 spots for the OL (Dumerville, Crawford and Van Pran hopefully). That leaves two spots you have to keep for Roy and Guillory. That means we really need 2 spots to open for Jalen Lee and Eric Taylor if they want in although in reality we probably only get 3 of Roy, Guillory, Lee and Taylor. Berry could be one but I don’t know who would be the other. I think they want to keep Cam Jackson as he will move to OT from defense. It all tends to work itself out.

Berry looks like a 4-5 star to me - who is suggesting he's disposable?
