The tape out there is pretty uninspiring, but he dominated during AA week, so that's a positive.
He's not gonna be pass rush specialist, but I think he has more upside than a pure space eater.

Rivals, Scout, ESPN & 247 all have LSU as his leader. Hate to say that the way their predictions have gone lately. Maybe they get this one right!

my non-sourced opinion is that we land him as long as the visit goes well.
After this years recruiting news, I will believe it when I see it on the dotted line.
On top of the fact that Miami has the last visit and Golden is not leaving "at least this year" I wouldn't bet anything you can't afford to lose on Valentine signing with the Tigers.

Golden isn't a factor. That said, its always a toss up when pulling a kid from home.
Still not sold on him fitting our system, we'll see I guess.

I think he commits this weekend. He doesn't have the classes to get into Miami, he has known this for months, and he doesn't seem interested in fixing that. I think the last visit to Miami is to appease the people back home, but I doubt that visit ever happens. Unless we feed him some bad Texas De Brazil, or Les kicks him in the nuts this weekend, I think this ends well for us.

I think this diminishes his potential - he is a big body, with a quick first step, though.

I agree with this. If he lives up to his potential, Chavis will be able to anchor the OL with TV in the middle.

Are we going to pick him up from the airport on a flying unicorn, too?

He's waiting for the right offer and I guess Penn State wasn't it. I would imagine he wouldn't be at Miami for Valentine's career there

Damn, what the frick is the answer? Just last week this board had quotes saying he is taking the laanguage class in summer school and would be qualified to go wherever.
Any solid knowledge on this?

This board doesn't have solid knowledge on a lot of guys within an hour of campus. They sure as shite don't have any solid knowledge on a south fl kid.

I thought that Miami was out, because he lacked a specific course in high school.

He supposedly needs 1 hour of a foreign language to get into Miami. That should be doable in the summer.

I consulted my sources this morning and it is looking good for Travonte Valentine. I straight up asked. "Is Travonte Valentine coming to LSU?"
Posted on 1/16/14 at 8:09 am to Galactic Inquisitor
Thats what no one is getting he is not originally from miami hes from up here in central fl he got moved to private school for his senior year to get the required courses from the school hes at now. He is originally from bayside high in palm bay. When i talked to his uncle he told me it would come down to the visits him and the rest of his family want he to stay in miami so he will be close to family, but he has this fascination about lsu and how they get his position to the league, so if he goes to lsu its because he wants to not because he doesnt have the classes because that was the point in moving him to miami in the first place.
