Savion Jones 247

Big Boom, coach O building the trenches. That 4-3 gonna be nasty

247 Player Analysis:
Great size and frame with ample space to continue bulk addition. Tall, imposing defensive lineman. Provided huge production, especially relative to position, for Louisiana 3A state championship team as a junior. Impressive overall athletic profile with three-sport participation in football, basketball, and track and field (high jump, discus). Motor runs high. Flashes impressive pursuit ability and closes fast on the ball. Strong at the point of attack vs. the run and as a bull rusher. Will need to expand and develop pass-rushing arsenal. Can improve balance and body control. Possesses terrific multi-sport profile, but athleticism lacks testing or track time context. Power Five-caliber defensive lineman with likely position and scheme versatility who could develop into an NFL Draft prospect.

Very odd here. Normally O posts this in response to the player committing on social media. This is a first to have the Hold That Tiger before a public commitment.

Don't see too many DE prospects doing high jump. Gotta be excited about the potential.

This could be one of our best big man classes in a long time when combining the DL with the OL. I actually can’t think of why Smith is waiting because I’m pretty sure that he knows where he wants to be. Add Foreman with Jackson already committed and you have one of the most athletic DL’s in the country. Combine that with what is already here and it would be safe to say that LSU is back when it comes to competing with the big dogs in the trenches once again. We are finally going to have a nice 2 deep to work with.

With the OLman who are looking hard at LSU and will likely land at least 2 of the top 10 tackles while also landing 2 of the best interior lineman, LSU will be sitting nicely at the end of this class.

You can say the same about the linebacking depth also. Everyone knows that our DB room is extremely talented as well. Scary defense!!!
