re: Seastrunk a RB or WR in college?

Why the hell are you talking about this kid in the NFL? He hasn't even graduated high school yet. You can't say that he can't carry an extra 10-15 lbs and I can't say that he can. I'm just going to have to trust every college coach in America, every recruiting service and all the other recruiting guru's on here who say he will be a running back in college.
BTW, how are LS hands and route running???

While at LSU Kevin Faulk was listed at 5'10' 195 lbs.
and he has never been a full time NFL RB
set the SEC record for all-purpose yards and was 2nd in all-time rushing yards. Going into his 11th year in the NFL as a RB not WR.
I think Faulk is a good comparison. He's not gonna be getting 25 carries up the gut but we have basically 10 other RB recruits that are made for that. He can be a outside runner, 3rd down type back.

Lache will have some power down the road once he fills out. he'll be a speed back who breaks a lot of tackles. i think if you see him in person you'd think his body type is rb all the way. he's not that small as it is he and has over a year before he plays college ball. his legs are big like a rb.

because kids make their college choice based on how they will fit into the program in order to showcase them for the next level.

as far as a college RB goes, yea its a good comparison.
but i doubt he says "when i get to hte NFL, i want to have a career like Kevin Faulk."

Reggie Bush, 6' 180lbs.
Oh, and I realize that he has a different game than AP or D. Mac, but you used the term "physical freak" to dispel comparisons. You don't think Seastrunk falls under the umbrella term of "physical freak"?

so he'll want to have a career like Skyler Green instead?

i dont see the power in his game that Peterson or McFadden displayed, to go along with top line speed. He has the top line speed, most definitely.

Im just saying i think he'll look at guys that put it together in both college and NFL and had success.Posted on 8/4/09 at 4:52 pm to Lester Earl
Lester, the dude was already 192 lbs 6 months ago. So he's bigger than someone like Bush was at the same point. He's much bigger than Drayton Calhoun, who is playing RB. There is no question the guy is a RB.

reggie bush and felix jones are two recent rbs who are roughly the same size, were drafted in the first round and have already proven to be good nfl players in multiple roles. both are freaks physically and lache is a freak on that level.

CJ Spiller is another one who is a stud and will be a 1st round pick. All comparable to Lache.

I hope Lache comes to LSU, but I think it would be in his best interest to go elsewhere.

he doesn't have LT's quickness

i just hope we use this more in our offense in the future, lache or no lache

he was no bigger than Lache coming out of high school and Lache hasn't even started his senior season yet
Lache has the legs and upper body to be plenty big enough to be a RB ..and one day a pro RB
this is a nonissue
Posted on 8/4/09 at 5:10 pm to Thoreauxbred
no

Lache's burst and speed is as good as you'll get from a high school RB
go back and watch some of LT's high school film and compare it to Lache's film (although it is only Junior and Sophomore film)
Posted on 8/4/09 at 5:14 pm to Thoreauxbred
nope

i'm not denying either
i said quickness, which along with an amazing running ability is what made LT the GOAT

Lache is plenty quick
