We need good freshman DT's, I've seen people say he is a little raw for 5 star status but I havn't seen anyone say we don't want him.

That’s not true, it’s not just for Dom imo that fits for any recruit at any time in any sport and I totally agree

He maybe next Reggie White, but I saw him play several times and I wouldn’t have him as a 4 or 5 star. I guess potential. Curtis wore him out.

Not factual. We can think he’s over rated but still want that raw talent on our roster. Both opinions aren’t exclusive of each other.

I may be in the minority here but I’d like to see Jimmy get a chance. He recruited well when at USCe and his lines were solid. I think it’s in very bad taste to get rid of him without giving him a chance, but that’s just me.

We take tons of 3 stars that people all call the next Honeybadger. So anybody saying he is not a want let alone a need is full of crap.

Next time you see him just tell him to quit making this so stressful and pick LSU. He will be set up for life in Louisiana if he does

Our fans are just butthurt that he committed to aTm and didnt hardly even look at LSU and just look for reasons to justify their feelings. I've done it too and probably did on this one too.

The next few weeks are going to be very good for football recruiting.

He’s overrated and still a take. Those things can co-exist.

LSU needs to hire Kyle Williams to coach our DLine. He had a fire that our players need to nestle up to and learn the trade. He could make a player out of DM.

I am guilty of calling him over rated, due to the only game I saw him play (Against Ju'Juann Johnson's LCA Team) in, he got worked over by a much smaller player.

However, in hindsight dismissing a kid based off of a single game would be ignorant and shortsighted on my part.

Will he need time to develop ? Certainly. Just like Shae D said tho, you'd rather him develop for your team than against them.

Unlike Grich, I'm nowhere close to the family or McKinley's situation, but read the tea leaves, him coming to LSU is seeming more and more like a real possibility.

I, for one, would welcome him with open arms. Hopefully our D-Line coaching situation develops and we put a coach in place that can get the most out of our guys. So much talent was wasted last season, as evidenced by how much better they played after we brought in Pete Jenkins.

I doubt Kyle wants to deal with the recruiting nonsense that comes with being a college coach.
