we really don't need to take 4 CBs imo


It does seem like we'll have a crowd at CB if we take 4, especially taking 3 each of the last two signing classes.

I think Ramirez and Battle are kind of hybrid guys. LSU's been getting a bunch of those.

I'd imagine at least one of those two ends up at safeties. LSU's looking for safeties who can cover slot receivers man-to-man.

Why can’t people on this board stop being so negative? Do you think the Gumps criticize any commits they get. I bet everyone little Nickie offers is an all American and going to be all pro.

I sometimes wonder if half the people on the LSU boards are really LSU fans and not covert operatives from other schools just trying to cause trouble.

Every sport has its one thing that separates the elite from the almost elite.
A friend of mine who played for the NY Yankees once told me in baseball everyone in AAA can run, catch and hit. Those who make it to the Show are the ones with arms.

Football it is speed.

Hell the kid is 6’2’’and runs a 4.4. You can’t teach size and speed. You can coach everything else.

You guys take one of the proudest days of a kid’s life and turn it to BS. Let the kid have his day. You don’t think other recruits are reading your posts. I bet half you guys never played a minute of football. But you are experts.

This reminds me of Morris Claiborne, when LSU first offered him he was not a big time recruit and many LSU fans questioned the offer. You need to trust your coaching staff.

I think it warrants the number 2 slot as well.

FWIW any poster to be taken seriously at all knows that, with the wide receiver talent at the LSU camp last week, any offer to a defensive back is legit.

Yea it's nice he earned the offer when CB's were getting it handed to them at the camp.

This is what I'm getting. We lost that guy immediately after he saw what kind of players we were recruiting... I heard he lost interest as soon as he left camp. Possibly during camp.

I think at least one leaves. And Paris ends up at safety. Maybe Brazil on offense. It'll take care of itself.

I've thought for a while that LSU will have a talented guy at that position unhappy with playing time who will end up being a I-AA all-American and an NFL draft pick.

Northwestern or McNeese are about a year away from being very happy with a transfer CB, I'd bet.

I hear this of every "underrated" recruit. The fact is, very few will turn out to be anywhere close to Mo Claiborne.

Look, I'm excited about the pick up. The kid earned it against very elite talent but let's not proclaim every 2 and 3 star to be Mo or Mathieu.

Sucks for whoever loses out...but that's the way it goes. There will be a ton of attrition.

I definitely see Battle as a safety. I really don't know very much about Ramirez, but it seems like he has a similar frame to Jeremy Cutrer, so safety is a possibility for him, too.

I believe he was told before he committed that he was recruited to be a CB per his request.
