He looks pretty good. He's not good enough to get an LSU offer, but I would say he is definitely good enough to play for 80% of D-1 schools.

Don't you base it all off star ratings?

Based on this one film I have to agree with flask. The kid is pretty good and he will surely get some offers but I just think he is not LSU material. He has a great attitude and I respect any young man who tries to be the best they can be but he didn't do anything that knocked my socks off and it looked like he lacked break away speed. He seems like a Vandy or Miss state recruit and he should take the offer if Vandy gives him one. I hope he proves me wrong and I wish him the best.

I'm no recruiting expert by any means but while he doesn't possess the breakaway speed that so many of us covet, 80-90% of his catches were in traffic and tough ones at that. You need at least one of those on your team...sorta like an Early Doucet-type

He's definitely a good player. I'm sure he will do well wherever he ends up. I really did not mean to knock on the kid by saying he's not LSU material.

Let's be honest though, Is he better than Mike Davis/Justin Hunter/Martavious Lee/Trovon Reed? I don't see us taking 5 WR's this year, so he would definitely have to be better than one of those players (or Reed would have to say "no thanks" to our offer, and then he would have to be better than the next guy in line. Also, when he gets to LSU, is he ever going to see the field while playing behind the likes of Randle, Tolliver, Molton (who PP said was the only receiver he couldn't cover) and the previously mentioned recruits?

LSU is going to be incredibly stacked at WR when this class gets on campus. If I was anything less than a freak athlete, I would be really worried about the depth chart at WR.

I really didn't think my post was that abrasive, but soft wording has never been my forte'.

You are making sense now Flask....someone mark the time and date. Just kidding...great point on the depth. Cool that we are so stacked at that position which I think may be the most important offensive position but that is a different argument.

Your right we do need a player like that and this kid has great hands but I don't think LSU will have to go that for out of Louisiana if at all to find a player like that. Even if the tigers did want him I don't believe there is any room for the kid. How well does he play safety? I know he will end up going some where I wish him well.

sorry it sounds like a broken record guys. I had to step away from my computer while I was write that post. Sounds like Flask and I are on the same page.
