re: Recruiting for Gunner Kiel - the WR's for 2013

What about this Standish Dobard kid TE from NO? is he any good?

Yes Dobard is good. Different style than Smith but will get an offer(some places say he already has one though I'm not sure). He's more Nic Jacobs which isn't a bad thing.

Your right about Dobard. He is good. I think LSU should be careful before offering Dobard b/c of how special a TE D.Smith is. From what I've seen (through highlights) and heard from others, some are saying could be potentially as good as Kellen Winslow Jr. when he was at the U. of Miami.

Agree on Smith and his offer is good all year. Word is that Dobard is offer #2 and a take with the Patterson kid also in line for an offer if we don't feel good about Dobard. 2 of the 3 with Smith being the priority.

Agree that Diarse is likely a db in collge but I have a feeling he is one of those guys that is just too good with the ball to move to defense. He's got special ability with the ball. A lot will depend on which he prefers and who else we get at wr and db. A lot of versatile athlete type guys instate next year that can play wr/db.

We had a few guys like that in last years class. Claiborne, Mathieu, Reid all played offense in high school. If we get Collins this year, he is another special player who could play defense or offense. You can never have too many of these special athletes because their instincts are what set them apart.

Who was Gunner's main target in HS?

Dorial Green Beckham still has not committed but does not have LSU as one of his choices.

yes please.

I think it is a matter of time before Smith committs to us.

I think if Quinn is offered in football he will committ immediately.

Smith is going to the UnderArmour combine. Quinn is going to the U.S. Army combine from what I hear.

Both made 1st team All-State in 5A this year.

Boys from the boot junior day is in a couple weeks. Any of the kids who get an invite to that could be offered. Those are the ones that are being seriously looked at. There are always some sleepers in the bunch that are not on the "obvious" list
