He was right on the edge of the 5/4 star line (34). He dropped from #32 to #37 in the national composite. Also he is still the #1 OG in the national class.

Too fat

Too fat to keep up with elite DL right now. Needs to lose 30 pounds and do some agility drills. Not trying to be an arse just telling the truth.
Oh I know you not. It's the truth. Some people cannot discern between being an arse and honest, hard truth. O and staff will get him where he needs to be. And then he will dominate. I mean, even overweight he is the best HS oline recruit LSU has signed in the Orgeron era. Once he loses that extra weight, he will be a monster.

Kardell’s future is in his hands. I don’t think he deserves a 5th star.
Posted on 1/19/19 at 6:50 pm to TrevRollings29
Has been living all the hype about himself since 8th grade and has done minamal to increase his stock over the past few years. To that point, he got EXPOSED in his recent HS ALL American game and he’s now a 4 star.....

This is why rankings can be so stupid. High football has been over for a while and now you drop him a star? If he was a 5-star at the end of the season, he should a 5-star now! Classic example of why rankings can be so overrated!

Because he went to FL and got abused by Alfano and multiple others. Those guys are the best and Kardell didn't match up with them that week. Don't care as long as he does it on Saturdays at LSU

He's too heavy...top heavy

Maybe this could help motivate Thomas to shed those pounds and prove them wrong.
He seems to have a lot of self confidence, so can still make a big impact.

Yeh he should have just skipped the AA game. Hard to hear they dropped him because of 1 on 1s
Have talked to him about getting weight down to mimic Trae Turner. He talks to Trae all the time so he should ne getting good advice for his futiure

That's something that I noticed from the first pic I saw, huge potential but he's got a pretty good bit of reshaping to do

Hopefully getting beat was a wake up call to him that he needs to improve. All he needs to do is lose weight

Still number 1 OG tho
Posted on 1/20/19 at 2:05 pm to tigerskin
See I don't agree with this at all. How many times do they rank players not where they are now but where they will be later on? Or just on potential alone.
If they think he's going to be a dominant player once he loses a few pounds then why in the world would you drop him now since their excuse for others is where they project? They contradict themselves constantly. Southern Lab is a smaller school but they also play up in competition so that excuse is out also. The real reason is that they're bias as frick just like the SEC refs are.

2017 - the #1 OG in the class finished a 5-star.
2018 - the #1 OG in the class finished a 5-star.
2019 - the #1 OG in the class is Kardell Thomas, and he just got demoted to a 4-star.
2020 - the #1 OG in the class is currently a 5-star.

You really think they were going to give LSU all these 5stars?
Posted on 1/20/19 at 4:05 pm to OppositeMan
Nah... They would never be bias toward their lover. Don't get me wrong the man deserves respect but Clemson proved that when you don't play scared agsinst Bama and you have depth at the LOS with a good QB under center, you can beat the crap out of Bama.
Joe Burrow and these lines need to just buckle up and throw some punches and we'll beat that team.

It's all arbitrary to some extent.
He's a really good player, let's just be happy with that.
