Perrilloux is at Texas if Saban stays at LSU.

The talent level in that small class was actually pretty high, as there were a bunch of major contributors on the 2007 national championship team signed in that class.

Yeah thinking the same thing. Top to bottom, that class had a very high percentage of very productive players for us.

Chris Hawkins was so bad, I'm getting PTSD typing this.

Only names I don’t recognize contributing were Korte, Anderson, and Robinson. Keep in mind, i was 6 years old in 2005 but everybody else I remember being starters at one point.

Take my "yeah i bet" story for what it's worth. In high school I went to a LSU football camp. Perrilloux was there. His 7 step drop was faster than what I could run forward. I asked him one day "are you really thinking about going to UT" (I lived in Texas). He smiled at me and said "Nah, coach has me messing with them".
No, I was not invited to said camp. My parents paid for me to go. No, I was not good at football. No, I did not play anywhere.
I can't remember what year, either 03 or 04. Saban was still the head coach.

Korte was a running back. He played a good bit in the Vandy game in 05 if I remember correctly.

If we are talking bang for your buck, this is the greatest class ever.
over half of these guys contributed in a major way. A much higher percentage than a normal class.

I've been around here too long man. I know the drill. No shame in being an average athlete. I got my name in the paper a few times in my day

Back then our tiny school required at least one hour of some type of phys ed. For us that didn't want to play football, they stuck us in the weight room while the football team practiced. Once a month they'd make us play flag football against the team. We didn't know what the frick we were doing but at the time I was a 6'3" 150# sophomore running machine and I discovered I could actually catch a ball. We beat the team about half the time because they'd just run me on a streak and heave it out in front, nobody could touch me

I couldn't cut for shite or change direction so I was horrid at routes, but damn I used to be fast and sure handed. Drove the coaches absolutely nuts because they begged me nonstop for 3 years to be on the team, but i was a twig and had absolutely no desire to play full speed and get broken in half. It's just not for everyone I suppose.

Being soft stopped many potentially good players to not play football at my school as well.
If it makes you feel any better you probably made the right call cuz as soon as pads were put on, those DBs would have wrecked your shite and based on your posting, you would still have alligator arms to this day.
Just trolling you a bit.

Perrilloux to Texas. Saban stays and we get a kid from Tuscola Texas who had a 70% completion for his career.
