Like Cassius Marsh, he too was awestruck by the atmosphere at Tiger stadium. With only a few scholarship spots left to go and some big fish left on the board, will Miles accept if he were to commit? It seems like the only school between LSU and Gore is Cal and I do not see them as much competition.

They want three RBs and he is a take IMO.

I like Blue to, but Gore fits our needs. We need more speed backs.

Gore has the potnential to be a Jaquiz Rodgers or a Shyrone Carey. Hopefully its the former.

I like Gore a lot. He looks very good in is espn film. He is a little more quick rather than being a burner. He has pretty good balance. I would say he is a skyler green type of player.

We are missing this IMO. We have speed with guys like TH, but not that quickness like Skyler or DD had.
Is anyone thinking that Blue may be converted to a LBer or something else?

trindon is much more quick than those two - the difference is the other two knew how to play football

Trindon is faster, but doesn't show a ton of lateral quickness for a guy his size IMHO FWIW PIIHB.

If he doesn't use it then it's like he doesn't have it. Trindon might be fast but those Green and Davis (and Rainey and Demps and James) are what they are b/c they can make people miss. Trindon needs a wide open lane b/c if he gets touched, he's going down.

That was my point. TH has more speed, but Skyler (when healthy) had more quickness (a/k/a agility, football moves, ability to make tacklers miss, etc.)

We'll be getting a serious speed back when Luther Ambrose transfers from ULM to LSU. Dude can fly.
