re: Should we be worried about Aaron Anderson

If LSU can firm up their offensive system into what it always should have been, it equalizes it even more. Les Miles isn't walking through that door.

Anyone who ever watched Louisiana football knew we should always have great WRs, DBs, LBs and running backs. Why in hell not have a wide open offensive attack.
Brady type offense was made for Louisiana type athletes.

And Anderson is better than each and every one of them.

Maybe he’s feeling a bit jealous, maybe the coaching staff is really putting it on Shazz right now and his feelings are hurt, The only thing I know is Will C & Walker H won’t flinch, the rest is a crap shoot!

Anderson was better than Destyn Hill when he was a year behind him at Karr

If Anderson flips, does this open the door to tell Hill to seek an alternative school?

I’ll get downvoted for this but I disagree significantly. WR has become one of the most important positions on the field—look at the elite teams of the past few years: LSU and Clemson in 2019, Bama in 2020, Ohio state this coming year—and as of now, Anderson might be the only truly dangerous receiver in our class. I like AJ johnson and decoldest, but to me, those guys don’t project to be stars at the SEC level. We need stars, and imo anderson can be that. This is a position where the top programs are stacking 2, 3, 4 top 100 recruits every single cycle. Just because we have one other 4* doesn’t mean that we don’t need Anderson. A class with just AJ Johnson and decoldest would be a legitimate problem.


If we can finish this class with Preston/Anderson/johnson/Crawford, I’ll feel very good. If we finish this class off with Preston/johnson/Crawford, I’ll feel okay. If we finish this class off with johnson/Crawford, I’ll feel bad.


The fact is that WR recruiting, in this day and age, dictates the ceiling of your offense. Anderson is not a guy that we can lose and just say “ah who cares”

You are extremely overexaggerating.

1. LSU pulled in a King's ransom at WR last year and you are selling guys like Crawford and Johnson way short.

2. After Bama pulled in that 3 man WR haul in 2017, they only got one elite WR over the next 3 years. In the 2019 class they pulled in one WR, 40th ranked at his position Metchie. Metchie is about become the next Bama WR to go high in the draft. In 2018 they pulled in Waddle who went top 10. The other two guys they had in that span, which were top 25 at their position at top 150 overall recruits, have done nothing, and haven't even been needed.

3. This is LSU so we'll get at least one elite WR no matter who it is, but let's say we only get Decoldest and Johnson. That's literally one year in a 3 year cycle (used to be 4 years but everybody leaves after 3). Boutte is here for another 2 years, the freshman 3+ (5 of them, 3 in the top 13 at WR), and Decoldest and/or Johnson could turn into the next low ranked star WR at LSU (Brandon LaFell, DJ Chark, Justin Jefferson).

247 has done an awful job scouting Louisiana this year. Look at their rankings. They're not close to the composite. They really shite the bed on evaluations. They need to update it.

I had an account on 247 and switched to rivals & enjoy it much more. Shea is great but is pulling dead weight over there.

Julie is a damn hustler and Jimmy is in tuned with the 7 on 7 stuff. Jerit Roser contributes and has a sneaky good youtube channel with prospect interviews and such, Louisiana vs All Yall. Im enjoying their coverage much more so far.

Aj johnson is not 6'4

He has the size and straight line speed you look for in a big receiver.
