Amite has not been good to LSU and Saban has a former Amite coach on his shadow staff. I believe that if he had to sign today it would be LSU and if you believe the stupid crystal ball it does say LSU. Of course Amite has a top 100 receiver as well in Devonta Lee. If lsu has a positive season 9-3 or 10-2 I believe we land Sopsher. If we don't it will be one of the biggest indictment on Coach O since he is a DLine guru and he is a home state kid. Next years Louisiana crop may go down as the best top level talent in the last ten years. 3 kids in top 50 just from Tangipahoa parish!

I agree with everything you said here, but sometimes it just doesn't matter what type of season you have or what or what not Coach O suppose to be good at. Alabama with Saban has a strong hold on Amite and Amite players other than Ricard(transferred after one year) don't go to LSU. I won't get my hopes up with Sposher.

or was he never as close as I was reading him to be on this site? The way I read it, O couldn't finish it. Now of course that's just how I took it from everybody's responses to the situation, but yeah.. I was really looking forward to that guy in the class. Even though we got Shelvin, he's not even playable so we are still at square 1.

I'll give it time though for O to do his thing... might be a long year though. LSU graduated a lot of talent

Ranking change quite a bit in two years. He's very good, we played them last year, he has a ton of developing to do to become the #1 DT by the 2019 signing day

You do have a valid point here. Outside of the WR from last year Amite really doesn't put out Power 5 talent. I posted a response a while back about all the top players at Amite over the last 25 years or so and very few if any ended up at Power 5 and if they did they transferred out to a non Power 5 or an FCS school. My quote from that thread is below.


quote:

Rogers could play any of the three Linebacker positions in college because he’s built like a Middle Linebacker, but runs like a Outside linebacker. This is a kid that could start right away for any program in the United States as a True Freshman. I would put him in my top four players of all time at Amite that I’ve seen play in 25 years. My list would be QB Michael Carr, Eric Foster, then Juwaan Rogers, then DT Donald Pennington.



quote:

Quote from Lee Brecheen article in 2011. Carr went to Clemson, but didn't finish there. Foster to ULM. Rogers to Southeastern. Pennington to Memphis. Aaron Morgan is another that went to ULM.

Well, there's definitely two:

Shyheim Carter
Devonta Smith

If we lose Sopsher and Lee, that would make four.
