No, that is the point. We are taking two RBs, want one of each style. YOU want both because "they are from Louisiana".

I'd actually rather a Akers/Etienne combo if I had to choose two rbs for this class.

For the record I like Etienne, I like his skill set and seems like a good kid. If there is a way to get all them including Akers I'm all for it.

for me body type always dictates style, and they have much different body types

The Catholic kid, while short, is going to outgrow "change of pace" back by the time he is ready to roll in college. He's small and compact, will add weight. And is just not the longer legged slashing type of runner Etienne is

It's a NCAA "quiet" period right now. Saban wouldn't be allowed to meet him at his HS, not sure how that translates to a neutral site like the hotel.


Then it would be a violation, but seriously doubt Saban was involved in this and the story is probably false.

Why is this a dead period and ho wlong does it last?
the ride itself is impermissible benefits.

If I'm remembering correctly LSU has had to make recruits walk across campus on visits because a car, even golf cart, ride was not allowed. OV's only I think is when it is ok.
