My favorite player gets his offer...


same here. I've said before, he's a Melvin Ingram clone. Can play at least 3 positions and be a special teams asset as well.

Thunderation Gentlemen!!!

Melvin Jones is already committed to Crimson Dwarf and Alabama.

Just b/c LSU offered, does not mean he'll de-commit from CD and Gumpastan.

He fits really well, into their scheme and CD loves large LB's....


Not sure if joking, cereal, or just drunk.

So who's the next Louisiana prospect we hope gets an offer? Ronald Lewis?

You can tell who this clown is from his choice of words.

He is an idiot no matter what name he uses nor what board he posts on.

When you look at Lewis' film, it looks like he can play anywhere in the country. Something must be off about it though because no major programs have offered him. He seems like a freak athlete, but it looks like he's going to be one of those dime a dozen Louisiana 5'11" 180 guys.

Huh, I thought Bama, Tamu, OM, Nebraska, Arky, UT, and TCU offered.

Nice to see this offer. I think he pulls the trigger soon. Wonder what this means about Beckwith?

I really think this guy is a major league MLB. Great size and a very good athlete.

This guy looks huge too, almost like Kelvin Shepherd.


Thing is, Sheppard came in weighing about 210 out of HS. What is Jones? 245?

He could drop a few pounds. When minter came in he was like 240 at 6'. Now he's like 225 because chief asked him to lose a few before he hit the field and it really helped him IMO.

Arizona State, A&M, Tulane, Colorado, Nebraska, TCU...according to Rivals.

Fairly similar to Scout with the exceptions being that Scout lists an offer from Ole Miss while Rivals lists an offer from Miss State.

Bama hasn't offered. I don't think TAMU or Neb have offered yet. And TCU and Ole Miss aren't major offers.

I feel like he is a Don'ta Hightower clone:

I think he's a Melvin Ingram clone. Either way, if we get him, it's a good thing.

A coach told me it was low, but didn't say how low.

Dang.. well hopefully he started pulling it up..

What does an athlete need to qualify?

Is it a sliding scale? Lower GPA/Higher ACT?
