LSU has 2 Committed but looking at the Recruits available the numbers are thin. Whats happening in High School that the numbers of OL Recruits is very low. Even when LSU signs one they leave and go home or get kicked off the team, etc.

It's because they're adding dihydrogen monoxide to our water. It's stunting kids growth.

I'm just excited about the possible '19 haul on the O-line.

We gotta bring in a JUCO tackle or two. A grad transfer or something like that would be awesome too

Traore will be a tiger no doubt this class will be solid but next year will be amazing!! Kardell will be the best guard to ever go through LSU

Give Thomas a chance before putting that "best ever" label on him. We've had some good guards come through the past couple decades.I hope you're right, though.

7 v 7 is the cool thing to do.

I know it's wrong to give him the label this early but if he keeps it up and stays injury free he has a great shot to be the best!

We better have at least 5-6 in this class. Hines, Smith, wire, and likely Rosenthal are already committed. Traore has been mentioned quite a bit and will fill an immediate need. I think we need at least one other to feel pretty good depth wise.

This season will attract a lot of guys imo. A lot of uncertainty with O will be dismissed and the offense and defense Canada/Aranda will field are going to help as well! This team is strong as hell I don't get where all the doubt is coming from

Just very little experienced depth on the offensive line now. A couple of injuries could sink the season.

Yeah we haven't had the best luck this off season but we still have some great talent at the 1's and 2's at all 3 positions and a few really good true freshman! The thin oline should attract the best of the best in this class and next years if they perform well this year

I get that it will look attractive to come here as an OL recruit, but you have to have depth in this league because it's almost impossible to not get nicked up at some point. Plus, it's rare that true freshmen are physically ready to play in this league.

It's rare, but has been done. I mean the guy everyone is melting over arguably had his best season as a freshman. And from what I've read Deculus is the real deal and he's been here since spring.

I hadn't considered the impact on recruiting. I suppose that could be a silver lining.

Deculas and saahdiq are both physically ready to compete in the sec! And cushenberry as a RS freshman will be a very good center and will be able to cover if clapp gets injured
