LSU has two brothers on campus. One being a 4 star this year but his younger brother is a 5 star OT for 2015. Both are Texas commits and both are visiting LSU as we speak. Hopefully LSU can flip both. I imagine if they get one they'll get both. Even if they don't, you have to love the aggressiveness in the staff lately.

We always seem to get surprise DL at the last minute!Let's hope Sione will be one of the next in line.

210 lb defensive end??? I don't know about that

I guess he projects at OLB but that's still incredibly light.

He's nearly 220 and runs a 4.6, he could play linebacker maybe. Or just bulk up and stay WDE

Should be fine

And if it bags us a 5* OT next year, I say hell yea

If he can play, I'll take him. And he can add weight with our S&C program. And his brother coming along too? I'll take it for sure!

The older brother is a 3 star composite and on 247. The younger brother is the prize. He's a top 20 guy for 2015.

Obviously you haven't watched football since '94.

6'4" and 215 at 18 is damn near a prototype nowadays.

I agree, we never should have taken Mingo.

I might be incorrect on this but I coulda swore when both of these guys committed to texas months ago we were thought by many to have finished 2nd. Am I remembering that correctly?

He's about the size of Mingo. In fact, wasn't Mingo about 205 lbs when he was a freshman?

Mingo was 6'5 209 coming out. A 4 star that ran a 4.5. Worked out pretty good.

Erik Striker, while technically an outside backer, ate Cyrus K for breakfast then shat him out, ate him again then shat him out one more time in the Sugar Bowl. He is 220 pounds.

Mingo came in at 209, left at 240

That's right. They loved their first visit here and almost committed before choosing UT. Pretty solid chance at getting both to flip.
