I saw Jimmy Smith post a clip of this kid saying he’s the most underrated wideout in Louisiana. Anyone seen the kid play? I’d imagine he doesn’t get much exposure at West Ouachita.

He won the Gamebreaker Offensive MVP and WR MVP at the NextGen All-American Texas Camp.

On 247 he’s not ranked and doesn’t show any offers but damn LSU needs to take a look. I know our wideout haul will be insane this year but doesn’t hurt to look because this kid has some fricking skills at least from what I’m seeing. He needs to get to an LSU camp ASAP.

His Twitter post doesn't mean he is good enough for LSU.

If he was good enough to get recruited West Monroe would've offered already.

He is a raw but impressive athlete. Two observations:

1. Appears to catch the ball cleanly and moves athletically.

2. Needs to keep his arms closer to his body when making cuts.


Will probably be a good player for La Tech or ULM.

West Ouachita is a bunch of cream puffs. Has anybody from that school ever been good enough for LSU?

All SEC Camps were cancelled for this summer. Bad for the cruits.

Zack Watson is the only one I can think of and that was for baseball. I’d imagine he would be at West Monroe if he was good enough to play in the SEC.

Well that’s a good move. Sucks he may not get to play this season, but at least he’s only a junior. There’s still time for him to show what he’s got.

He’s 2021. He’s a SR this year. He played at WM last year, not sure why he isn’t updated.

From the sound of it 7 on 7 will at least give him an opportunity to play D1. Looks like La Tech & ULL are on him among other schools

Strikes me as the type of player State would pick up and utilize well. He’d be a good fit in Leach’s system. He’s gonna be good. I’ll have to catch a few WM games and watch him.

ULM or TECH if he's as good as you say. OP you need to understand the players LSU gets now are top 300 in the country. These guys are freaks of nature

I can’t be the only one who doesn’t find this clip particularly impressive. The cut was just a big head whack—it didn’t seem to me like elite explosiveness or hip fluidity. It wasn’t *bad* but i certainly wouldn’t consider him LSU caliber based on that one clip. Maybe G5?

I mean, they are close enough to west Monroe, Ruston ,and Neville ,to put out the same type kids.

West Ouachita opened in 1989 and the only player that could have played at LSU that I know of was RB, Mark Henderson. He had grade issues and ended up at Arkansas.
