So your 1st post changes nothing.

Actually Bradford STILL is the higher rated player using 247 composite rating which is what almost everyone uses. Bradford 138 > Gibbs 153 . I will say again that Gibbs isn't coming to LSU anyway nor would we need him if Bradford signs

Bradford is 139 on composite, Gibbs is 106.

Bradford is 162 on 247 only, Gibbs is 133.

That said, it's totally moronic to point to a rating difference as insignificant as this as proof that one back is better than the other.

Bradford is the most likely available option

As of this writing, my numbers were correct and Bradford is HIGHER rated than Gibbs. Bradford is .9391 Gibbs is .9335

I would not have made a big deal about small differences either but of course the Gibbs crowd is simply misstating the numbers...just like you did!

We could do a lot worse than Bradford. I say we take him and be done with it. First run on his senior tape and I thought Etienne

yeah, someone said Bradford didn't do well in the TX playoffs. I only watched one game...like the 3rd round game. he looked awesome! Here are some highlights which show his speed, finding the hole, catching some passes not that well thrown, and his blocking. Obviously a take for me! If someone isn't impressed by this guy, they need to be switching over to analyzing curling...football isn't their sport!

Gibbs has some sick highlights, but after watching the AA game, I am back to wanting Evans. I know. Just being honest though.

I'm not in a "crowd" and I'm not misstating anything. Just going off the player ranking list. As of right now.

I don't know why the players' pages aren't current. Maybe you should take it up with 247.

Gibbs didn't have much of an all star game the way I remember it. But yeah, Evans looked great...hard to bring down, etc. I will still say if you look at Evans' highlights he isn't a burner. He is fast enough but not in the category of Gibbs or Bradford. I believe I saw Evans 40 time of 4.5...not slow but hardly lightning fast.

Wow!! You are right and so am I. I saw your link where you were using the list of players which is legit. Obviously you saw mine where I went directly to the players' profiles and that link is supposed to be legit. We can agree on one thing I believe. 247 site definitely has a problem because the Gibbs numbers simply aren't consistent and the Rivals update happened days ago..enough time to update the profile for sure.

No. I'm right and you are wrong. It's not really your fault that you're wrong, but that doesn't make you not wrong. If you'd been following recruiting longer you might know that the ranking information on player pages doesn't update in real time for some reason. Like I said earlier, complain to 247 about that.

You can't believe everything you read on the internet.

Stop being such a douche, too. Should I call you a pathological liar because you posted some incorrect information in this thread?

No, I gave a legit link to the player's profiles and I already stated that 247 has had days to update the profiles. As far as your opinion of me, I don't give a damn. And you obviously don't even know what a liar is since you said earlier, "it's not really your fault."

a-hole! You can't even be consistent within your own post! Oh, and I will accept 247's info on who is better only when it is consistent.

Tre bradford is alot faster than gibbs, but gibbs is all purpose threat, bradford can get to third level in a heartbeat as can gibbs. I believe coach orgeron can use both. But either one is good enough. They are both breakwater threats.

you might be right but I don't think Bradford is a lot faster than Gibbs...maybe a little. Don't know if you saw that link to 7 minutes of bradford highlights, but he had some great blocks against large guys...he cut them low and made a great over the shoulder catch on a long pass and a reception of an off target pass. I will say that both Bradford and Gibbs are faster than Evans. Gibbs goes down pretty easy. Bradford may also but I haven't seen him tackled much I agree with you that either would be a fine addition to LSU.
