FWIW, he's a DE at just over 6'. I'm not sure he could play the position here.

Expecting a few more. If we have 12 signees in December that’s a win.

We’ve lost 4 of our last 5 and LSU is a national embarrassment the way it’s handled events the last 2 weeks.

Tell me why the sky isn’t falling; the outlook is very bleak.

Everyone raved about his size and arm length when he committed.

Guess y’all think that isn’t a positive anymore lol

Because we are in an era where if you write a big enough check to recruits, none of that other stuff means shite.

Maybe not but this is an age of situational sports and in football a situational pass rusher can play 10 snaps a game and impact it. Remember Harold Perkins or Marcel Brooks as Freshmen? 1 sack a game gets you 12 sacks and 1st round consideration.

Besides we've recruited ideally sized kids that cant play either. It's a crapshoot.

At least 20 other programs are writing just as big of checks.

There will be 50 of him in the portal every year! There WILL NOT be 50 Lamar Brown's and Richard Anderson's so we have to hang on to those guys!

Not sure what this means though you seem to be getting up votes for saying it. Seems most would want to know who their coach is going to be before remaining solid to LSU.

Sounded like he was going to decommit a week or two ago when that article came out.
