I wonder why under DT for LSU it says 5 and 0 commits?


Dude, that shite drives me crazy. Very seldom do those numbers actually reflect what's shown on the roster. I've honestly considered that attribute of 247 to be detrimental to us and helpful to several different teams...one, in particular.

Agree. Land Ish. Pressure every other DL guy they feel can help. If we add 1 more with Ish that gives us 4 DL to develop for 20 forward. Don't want to count on freshmen in 20-21. If a 3rd new guy wants to come , make room. I'm not worried about any other part of the team. DL, DL, DL.

Strange, because I read it as a positive for us... the recruit should see more immediate opportunity for playing time.

I didn't mean for this one specifically.

I've just noticed, over the years, that those numbers aren't usually accurate, and they've often portrayed us as having more than we do while portraying bama as having less than they have (which is laughable).

Why do you think that's not correct?

Livingston
Cotton
Jenkins
Ika
Evans

And they have Shelvin listed at nose tackle.

TE/DE that's listed as a DT. Very versatile player. Very good blocker. If LSU is recruiting him as a DT, I suppose he is either a backup plan or they don't have much hope for some of the others they were hoping to get. No matter, he looks good. Very athletic for his size. The real question isn't what LSU is recruiting him to play, it's what position will he eventually be playing. I think regardless he will be a good one. But LSU needs some athletic olinmen.

And remember xGeauxLSUx, Ika is a signee... not a commit.

This is who actually shows up:

SO DT
G. Logan
6-4 290
B. Fehoko
6-3 287

FR DT
J. Thomas
6-5 255
A. Moffitt
6-3 259
D. Rosenthal
6-7 327


Here is the link

Click on the "5 on Roster" link under LSU to see it.

247 does not synchronize this with their LSU roster for some reason.

Lol. Wow. So of the 5 they have listed, exactly zero currently play DT for LSU. Nice.

They've been at this for years...I member seeing them list absurdly low roster numbers for certain positions for Bama in years past...and that crap synchronized up with Bama's targeting of specific prospects, many of whom we were both vying for at the time.

Don't worry, I don't believe in conspiracy theories.
