Jordan Allen- I have strong doubts he ever contributes. Should've been put at DT or OL the moment he touched campus.

Hawkins is an OT

Next year at DE

Allen
Rasco
Hunter
Maclin
Patterson

Other recruits
Tim Williams-he'll be a Tiger
Kendall Beckwith-I think he'll be a Tiger but not sure
Torrodney Prevot-I think we may just get him

Doubt we'd turn any of those 3 down

DT
Johnson
Ferguson
Logan-if he's back
Thomas
Johnson
Lawson

Other recruits

Justin Manning-we've got a shot
Greg Gilmore-I'm beginning to think we land him but will be skeptical until he signs
Lacouture-ours
Ben Hughes-good player that's all LSU if we offer

I think we'll take 2 of those kids and possibly 3 if the right guy wants in and there's room

I think we take about 6 d-linemen in this class. We need to reload. At DE, we lose Edwards and Aghayere (though I know he's moved inside for 2012), likely Sonic Sam and possibly Mingo. At DT, we lost Brockers but didn't sign any in 2012, and we will lose Downs and possibly Logan.

I'd say grab 6, either 4 DE and 2 DT or 3 DE and 3 DT. Probably out of this group:

DE - Patterson (commit), Williams, Prevot, Walker, Herron, Jones (some see him as an LB).

DT - Lawson (commit), Manning, Crayton, Gilmore, Taylor

I think we take 8 and I think we end up with:

DE
Patterson
Prevot
Williams
Beckwith

DT
Lawson
Manning
Gilmore
LaCouture


Last years class really hurt us in the long run and I think this year we can afford to take 8 of them. We don't need a linebacker and Beckwith could end up there anyways.

QB -2
RB -1
WR - 3
OL - 4
TE - 2
DE -4
DT -4
DB -4

Gives us room for another position as well.

The funny thing is that I actually think it's possible we could land all 8 of those. I doubt we do bu I could easily envision it happening. Imo the only dicey ones are Prevot, Beckwith, Gilmore and Manning and I think we'll land at least 2 and likely 3 of those. Great, great group if all falls in line.

With Mingo and Logan both strong possibilities of leaving early, I can see 3 DT and 3 DE, easily.

If they don't leave early, then Redshirt 2 of the 6.

Came to post this in the Gilmore Rivals article thread that got whacked. Thought this looked like the most recent DL thread to sak about Antonio McGhee. PalmettoSports.com (SouthCarolina paper)

quote:

DL Antonio McGhee (6-0 275) of Bossier City, LA has an offer from USC, Ole Miss, Louisiana Tech, Oregon State and Tulane. LSU, Texas A&M, Houston, New Mexico and Louisiana-Lafayette are some of the other schools showing interest. McGhee visited LSU this weekeend for their spring game and expects an offer soon.


Is this kid going to get an LSU offer?

I think weight have a little more than a shot. Just released today that Manning is not happy with OU's recruitment of him. Could mean he's sending them a message to pick it up or it could mean things are swinging in our favor.

Anybody know anything about Isaiah Golden once again being a possibility. And what about Ben Hughes out of Waco? That guy seems to be a beast. I hope we can get him on campus and offer

Jordan Allen's body didn't change like Blackwells. he's still long and lean. He'll be in the rotation not this season but next.

Forget Golden I saw a interview with him saying the team he wanted to beat the most was LSU because of the fan's in East Texas. Kid isn't that great he played in Elyisan Fields and just moved to Carthage to try to step up in competition.

He's upset about them not recruiting him earlier. He's just being a prima dona. He's a sooner.

But I think we take as many DL as want to come on.

I say we end up with 6:
DT:
Lawson
Gilmore
Lacoutre

DE:
Williams
Patterson
Prevot

Montgomery, Downs, and Agheyere are gone.
And I think Logan and Mingo are gone unless they don't match last years play.

Also, you have to wonder how long Rasco and Freak will stay once they are feature guys.

Jordan Allen has been recieving a lot of praise. Idk if you have heard of Sam montgomery, but he talks very highly of allen and says he has the tools to be a great one. Why would sam single him out and not others?

Just haven't seen any of that honestly. Where is something I can read with quotes from Montgomery about Allen?

He'll have 2 years to prove it. I wish the best from him but I'll stand by my opinion he isn't going to contribute much until I see him on the field. He got passed by Rasco, still has Edwards, Mingo and Montgomery ahead of him and possibly Maclin and even Hunter. Maybe we'll see him in goalline sets.

Yep, JAllen is a Miles' favorite. He'll see plenty of time in the next couple of yrs.
