Wow. I don't watch a lot of film, but with two kids playing HS football, I watch a lot in person. This kid looked like a man among boys. SO quick off the ball, and everytime the OL would run a stunt, he would just run right through the hole created before they could fill. Doubleteam? Heck, half the time he would just wrap up two at once. Unbelievable speed-seems to me he was underrated based on these videos.

I was thinking maybe a couple of the early posters in this thread need to come back and give Les some props. I'll even provide some Tony's to make that crow taste better.

Kid looks like a genuine badass - let's hope they don't "coach him up" to "stand his ground". Could be a big disrupter on the D-Line for us.

If you want to get real picky, you could say he prefers to arm tackle instead of wrapping up. He is truly dominant however.

Watching the video, it's clear that he has powerful psychic abilities. He's obviously reading the QB's mind to get the snap count.







Either that, or he's just unbelievably quick off the ball.

Bold Prediction: 1st Round OLB in a 3-4 D.

It looks to me, from the film, that he is more comfortable (or more suited) playing off of the end. However, it's also obvious, that he can be effective inside. I've seen 6'1" and 6'2" reported consistently, but to me that just means that he's above 6', and might be 6'1"+. The low weight was 240 (Rivals) and middle weights are 245 (Scout) and 260 (Dandy Don) and the high weight is 290, (lsusports.net). However, no non-LSU source has him anywhere near that high.

I don't want him at 290. He needs to get to 270 and be a versatile MOFO.

I chose Copeland from this class for my avatar over Fobbs and Ego. Just fwiw.

One of the best highlight vids I've ever seen. Seems to me that the DL has gone from somewhat of a 'weakness' to maybe a big time strength when you look at the last two classes...and obviously next year's load. Davenport, Downs, Montgomery, Logan, Brockers, Ferguson, Copeland, and another person or two I probably forgot to mention. Quite a load, and I'm excited to see what our DL can/will be like with Copeland and Montgomery chasing down QBs.
