re: For those still wondering about LSU "missing" on Rakim Jarrett

I remember saying, before we had any idea Rakim might flip, that I thought Boutte was the best of all of our WR commits. Didn't seem like anyone thought much of that comment, either way. But when you compare these two on video, Boutte is a FAR superior athlete, in terms of having speed, quickness, and jumping ability. And there was no sign, that I could see, that Rakim had better hands or was a better route runner. Pretty much all he had on Kayshon was height. But, again, Kayshon's ability to high point makes up for that.

I said the same as well on here also saying I liked Burton more than Jarrett. That's not to say that I didn't think he would be great just that I thought the other two were better. Boutte and Gibbs are guys I thought were very underrated by the recruiting guys, but at the end of the day, it's all about them being here.
