I would think we have some kind of plan B because if CEH declares and another gets injured or enters the transfer portal, we’ll be down to two scholarship RBs. We probably need to go hard after someone whether Evans signs with us or not.

I don’t know who we’re looking at or if we have a silent commit, or maybe we know a JC we can get but we need at least one RB

Coach O said it. Are you calling him a liar?

Save your breath on Evans- too much drama for LSU.

Coach O's mantra is one team, one heartbeat. Does Evans seem like a kid who would buy into that? Sometimes it best to go after kids who fit over talent.

My opinion the LSU coach rb Robinson needs to be fired, has not brought in alot elite running backs


LSU signed a 5 and a 4 star just last year, plus he’s the recruiting coordinator for probably the best recruiting class in school history, and we just had a running back have one of the best seasons in school history.

That was Louisiana product 5 and 4 star. They grew up wanting to play for Lsu. Of course LSU signed tdp and Emery. What do u expect?? Time to fire Robinson. He what has the man done outside of Louisiana on running backs. What has the man done on developing running backs ?? He developed Clyde. That's it. The other 3 are not there yet and should be,. Bama locked down 3 running backs this class in esd. Lsu didn't lock down any on esd and they doing 2017 all over again waiting on one guy.

Orgeron has final say in that so can’t totally exonerate him if that is indeed the case.

Witflong straight up said he’s not putting a pick on Evans till he here’s from a staff member that they got his LOI because he’s been all over the place.

Put in his pick to Georgia today.

I hate being the guy that loses a recruit and yells that the other teams cheating but Georgia is going fricking nuts over there and I don’t understand why. They have an archaic offense and haven’t won a national title in 40 years.

Evans is an incredible talent but every day his recruitment goes the more of a headache he looks like. Just stop playing games and go get a solid back and his badass oline teammate in Nola

Idiotic post. He doesn’t get credit for Louisiana players?

Freshmen should already be ready? (Clyde wasn’t)

You’re the worst poster on this site

Why do y’all think Gibbs is that much better than Clayton? I’ll take the Louisiana boy

um look at the film.... Mr Clayton’s is good, very good. But Mr Gibbs is like a Ferrari in a Ford Focus Race...

we will leave it up to O & the staff...

but that guy is a grand slam, waiting to happen...

Gibbs's film is ELITE. As is EVans' film. Evans imo is more of a workhouse back at this very moment. Although, I truly believe Gibbs has the higher ceiling!

Dude, if you knew anything about recruiting at all, you would know that the coaches don’t exclusively recruit only their position, it’s done geographically. So before you start blaming Robinson for not pulling in any RB’s you should probably take a look at what region he is recruiting and who he is credited for signing.

As far as Evans’ situation goes, I’m told it’s done and he’ll be headed to Georgia. Kirby is pulling out all the $top$. Also, it’s a possibility that the compromise for Burch’s mom is Georgia.

The backup plan at RB is Gibbs. The coaches have moved on from Evans and the effort is on Gibbs and another kid, primarily on Gibbs.

Well, yes and no. It is geographical but position also. No one would be responsible for losing Evans but Evans himself. We have recruited him with every coach on staff, including a LOT of time from O himself. Don't bail on that baw yet. Just don't.

If that was the back we wanted, we would already have signed the kid from Joisey. That dude is a straight up stud and we slow-played him. Still on the board....

If Evans didn't sign with us, we should follow suit and let it be known by someone from the school (other than a coach) like ATM.
