Is Pooka & Provens to close to take both?

The Same style set? I really like Pooka, seems to have intangibles and great instinct. Maybe I just don't know as much about Provens but he sounds like a great player and kid.

Take both. There is room for both.

Both are a take, will be used differently

4 rbs? 0% chance we take 4.

Why? In this offense they all can be used differently.

You don't turn down pooka

Could Provens be a slot wr / jet sweep guy? Can he catch?

When in doubt, you take the dude named Pooka

And 0% chance he'll be used solely as a RB

Provens is a quick all purpose type running back. He can hurt u in many ways. He is definitely a take.

The correct answer is take Justin Watkins and Pooka then make the hard decision on Provens.
Watkins is a better Provens and then Pooka is the spark plug missing on O.

Wait. What about Keys? Isn't he just like Pooka?

Provens is a pure RB and a lock to be in this class

My opinion is that Provens; Curry; and Joiner will be the 3 rb in this class.
Then the slot WR position will be one of Watkins; Keys; and possibly Pooka if he has the grades.

Justin Watkins should be in that mix to me also, that's if and a big IF with him choosing LSU. All 3 of these kids can be used in the slot, in the backfield and out.
but I can't see LSU taking so many of the same type of players. Pooka Williams is more a RB at this point in HS than receiver, but as I said he can play the slot in college like the others, he has good hands. But I would def take Williams over Provens just because I'm from LA and I played HS ball there so I know that LA players are second to none. The Provens kid may be good, but I think LSU would get a surprise in Williams anyways because that kid may be special the way he runs even though he's kinda undersized for a RB.

The real conflict is when you throw in Watkins to mix.
Clearly you could add Watkins to Provens, but Pooka too?
Certainly you would want to do so, but there is a limit on how many of the same type you take.
I feel like, if not Watkins, then Pooka; Provens is here to stay.
Similarly, if we miss on Joiner, might we take a 3rd (or 4th, if you count Jaray Jenkins) of this type player? Or what about a slight variant, such as Tony St Julien or even circle back to Slade Bolden ,
I think so, one of the 3 (Pooka, St Julien, or Bolden), ... if we happen to miss on Joiner.

Thats exactly what he is...

Why wouldn't you take both or 4 RBs for that matter? Instead of placing your bet on one guy, bring them both in and have them compete against each other and pick the better one. The more assets the better, you don't turn a guy down because you have a similar guy.
