Guess it's true that if you're getting Ish then you have to take Rodney also.

I think it’s a good move. Even though Rodney will probably never touch the field at LSU, and isn’t even ranked in the JUCO level. I think we have to land Ishamel even if there are some questions about his effort. I would like to see us push off a few guys in the class though like the JUCO TE, and maybe another guy in there. If this class shapes out to be what it can we won’t have enough room for some big names.

Louis Earl thinks this is a great move.

Optics of losing Sopsher and Emery would be horrendous.

Orgeron had to do this.

Taking Lanard was worth getting Leonard. Hopefully Sophser is a Tiger, and he meets his potential.

IDK, I'd love to be optimistic about us getting Ish, but I feel like we're too late, they act like thier ALL Bama...I hope not.

Just making a statement about him not being very good is all.

Actually we're looking a lot better than we did 6 months ago.

I hate doing this shite. It's almost never worth it. Plus theres a high chance of Sophser becoming another highly rated DT from LA that busts

As another poster said days/weeks ago, I hope Rodney’s offeris conditional on Ish signing in December, and him in Feb (if academics and test scores are in order).

You know damn well they’d pull his offer if Ish doesn’t come here.

Or there's a high chance he goes to Alabama and dominates against LSU.

O needs to do whatever he can to lock him up, we all know Saban will.

Even if he busts, we can’t lose as big a prospect as he is from our own backyard. Also, Rodney will not come to LSU, if Ishmael isn’t here. He can dominate the game when he wants to, I just think the kid needs a bit of an attitude adjustment.

True. I doubt we offer Lanard if no Leonard, but good thing is Lanard ain't no scrub.

Hell I think Lanard should get carries over Brossette.

The offer better be contingent upon receiving Ishmael’s LOI first.

0.0% chance.

Lanard is not LSU quality and is currently a waste of a roster spot. The ROI was worth it though.
