How do you think Nacho/Dupre/Quinn compare to Randle/Beckham/Landry when it comes to freshmen seeing significant playing time?

Do you guys think Nacho is Day 1 ready?


No, from what I've seen in the AA practices, he's way too raw...

Beckham, Landry, Randle, Boone, Wright, and even Shep all saw meaningful snaps as true freshman. Even in the bad days of LSU offense.

Now with Cam Cameron and Adam Henry at LSU, true freshman can see the field more than ever before at receiver.

I think I will hold off on crowning anyone just yet, considering that two of them aren't committed yet

Upchurch may be 230+ by the time het gets here. I hope so. Imagine the mismatch he could bring


Guy is going to surprise. His wingspan/extension is really good. Could be a RB, as well.

Most of the talk about Chark playing DB or Upchurch at TE/H-Back/RB came after people starting freaking out about us taking too many receivers.

They may both end up there but they both said in interviews their position wasn't set in stone in talking with the staff. Maybe we need the bodies and they have to stay there regardless, but I could really see Chark going the Claiborne route. Getting a look at WR and then being too good at CB to move back to offense.

I've thought that also. Especially if we get in a numbers jam with Blue and/or Hilliard leaving, injuries, etc.

After that bowl performance, if he tried to come back, Miles should boot him from the team. He has to go now. An RB only has so long to play in the league these days.
