On a side note, Landon is taking an unofficial to Aggieland. He's not using one of his 5 official visits though.

But who knows. If he likes Yell Leaders or sheep we have a chance

I had Bourque rated higher than John Gray from Texas. Very excited and hope that his commitment sticks.

Those other two Louisiana RB's mentioned are studs, and LSU has a deep backfield. I think Bourque will play with C-Mike for a year and be a solid playmaker, but we'll see.

I see him being around 6'2" 215 by his sophomore year and being the premiere back for the Ags once CM leaves. Trey Williams will be the change-of-pace guy who will work in space.

Isn't this kid 6'3"?

Why is he being ranked as an RB?

Probably b/c he ran for over 2K yards and has room to fill out. I see him at 6'2" on scout.

Adrian Peterson is 6'2" also.

How tall is Darren McFadden? I think his legs were 6'2"

Well, seems to be the theme lately with Miles. He lets one big blue chip recruit leave LA every year. I just hope Collins doesn't follow the trend.

Dandy Don has him as the #6 ranked recruit in LA. I think the #1 RB too. Correct me if im wrong. So he definitely has the talent.


Dandy Don may not be the best source. Scout is a better source with rankings out. They have Monroe and Bourque 10 & 11 in the state. Phillips and Devall are 2 & 4. Rivals rankings come out in the next few weeks.

Louisiana is deep but not front loaded like last recruiting season from what I have read. There are really only 4 players considered as elite prospects where on Rivals, Scout, etc that will be 4 stars or better; Landon Collins, Toshiro Davis, Phillips, & Devall. From 5-20 or 23, there are some players with potential, but most will get 3 stars I would guess.

Funny LSU folk questioning a kid finishing up course work somewhere else. May I introduce you to Craig Loston….

Egg – did someone hack your account? I hope so; otherwise you have lost a step or three. Reading your posts, I am embarrassed for you. And I understand sarcasm, but you just sound un-funny and alone.

I remember reading something about grades as well as trouble with the law. I hope the kid stays out of trouble and takes advantage of his gifts playing ball.

Theres a long time before signing day.

I do, however, prefer A&M sign Louisiana kids Lsu doesn't sign. That's 2 of the top 20 and prob 3 with Devall or Phillips. Better the Ags get the guys that leave the state than either school in Alabama.

Wait was he smoking, or you? Or are you right now? Don’t bag on a kid that decides he wants to do his own thing. Makes you look petty.

Agreed anything can happen, and I will be very nervous if LSU makes a hard push.
