It’s time to focus our efforts on this kid before we miss out all together. He is a damn good back and it’s time to reel him in! Too many people “in the know” pointing Evans to Georgia. Let’s go get Johnson....now!

I agree. This can only help any chance we have with Van Pran as well. The question will become who gets dropped that’s currently committed. We have a spot open for Guillory, Dumervil, Van Pran, and Ojulari/Webb if they want it so someone will have to get dropped.

Ashaad is an elite back and there wouldn't be a major drop off compared to Evans IMO. So I agree they should bump him up on the list and go get him.

CEO isn’t Miles.

Keep that in mind.

He has an offer. Are you trying to suggest it’s not commitable?

I am one of those who believe we don't NEED a RB this cyle. We will return CEH, Curry, Emery and Davis next year. If getting Ashad helped our chances with Van Pran, I am all for it. I wouldn't even necessarily mind if just got Johnson, just don't think RB is a priority this cyle. Guillery, Dumerville, and the 2 good Linebacker prospects I'd be fine with. Again, not a knock on Ashaad. He is going to be good. It just so happens we have two VERY good freshman backs that do not make RB a make or break position in this class. May Also help reeling in an elite back in next years cyle. just my thoughts.

Just saw he got a Bama offer, I wonder if there’s real smoke. LINK

I agree that we should go ahead and press for Johnson’s commitment now. I don’t think we have enough recruiting budget left for RBs to win the Evans sweepstakes and I think Milton is locked into UGA regardless of what Evans does.

The only difference between Johnson and Etienne’s situation is I don’t see a Clemson involved in his recruitment that he could say peace out and go to where it would be a better situation than LSU.

Kansas and Bama seem to be the other two teams mentioned often and I don’t see Bama as a legit option. I think he’ll be ours when it’s time I just wish we’d go ahead and make that move.

We should take a running back every year. However, we should take four offensive linemen every year, and you never pass on great talents like Koy Moore and Guillory. So something has to give. Out of these three things I would prioritize offensive line first and can’t miss talent second. I’d sacrifice running back, unless it’s can’t miss five star talent.
