Caden Durham Appreciation Post

I really believe with his speed, he's gonna remind us of the chris rainy and Jeff demps . Kid can absolutely fly, consistently running in the 10.2 range.

I’m very excited about the future of our offensive. A young, deep, up and coming OL full of talent. A stacked WR corps. A rebuilt TE room with a mix of in-line and receivers. A deep stable of RBs with power, speed and shiftiness. And a CREW of QBs with Jayden, Nuss, Rickie and Colin.

We have a lot to look forward to, boys.

With or without Simmons, I am friggin amped about the prospect of Durham.

Thank you! What a huge get out of the Dallas area!

What time do the recruits announce today?

Caden is going to be a beast. Low center of gravity combined with track speed makes a damn good RB

Durham behind the LSU Oline will be fun to watch!

TBH, I hope CD isn’t reading this board, haha. But if for some reason he is, had to show him some love.

That could all have been a huge smoke screen for Collins to actually surprise everyone too. It happens all the time. LSU is easily the better fit for Collins and is the prototypical edge rusher that LSU always has had the last 10 years from Keys / Chassion / Ojulari he’s the perfect match.

I’m not sure how Texas can come close to matching that? Maybe I just don’t know Texas football but I don’t remember any edge rushers from that school. In fact LSU has one of their better guys from last year on our roster now. Imo if it’s money, which I’m not even convinced of yet, but if so that doesn't have staying power like a first round pick promise.

LSU also needs to have someone that shows these kids how to make their own money and maybe give a little upfront money to start their own account, show them how to make that upfront money to work for them and add to it with their own built NIL deals.

If our girls BB prospects can earn 6-7 figures then our boys football can do the same or better. Just have to show them how, give them a little boost to start with and then slowly add to that over their 3-5 years here at LSU. We should be able to show these recruits and parents that LSU makes millionaires in 3-5 years with the right decisions. We should have examples of this by now.

In a weekend, these guys could easily make 10 to 20k nationally. With cloths alone they should make that. They’d have to stay busy. Signings, cloths, shoes, games, and commercials or advertising. They can make a decent amount of money like this. Once they become stars or if they do then they capitalize on that and they should all have school advisors for that. Maybe a specialist for the stars as well as a lawyer. They should make all NIL participants take classes to learn all this information. Record it and send it to their parents.
