We have 1 scholarship left and I saw some one mentioning that we can still sign a JUCO player in this years class? If that is true, then who are targets right now that we would even be considering? Please someone tell me there's a way we can get a LB in this class.

How about someone just tells you to take a breath and let the guys that get paid $$$ handle this?

You want a linebacker just for the sake of signing someone?

Or maybe he wants to see something happen like with Jevonte Domond and Colin Jeter last year.

Leo...what are you thinking...???

Much better odds if he came here. Must've wanted to be the big fish in a small pond.

We don't need a JUCO LB. There may be a guy who falls through the cracks that LSU can pick up later but no one knows

Because people like you will say that in February, be bitching about depth in September.

I just don't see where the depth problem is for LBs. If the depth problem is solely based on us not getting a LB and you haven't looked at the current roster depth it seems foolish.

I always thought that most recruiting was to fill needs you anticipate to have in a couple of years. So, if you don't get the need filled by moving people you currently have, you may need to go to get a JC guy next year. There always seems to be some position where the recruiting is thin and the coaches seem to fill the hole somehow.

One problem a JUCO guy brings is that he does not fill the hole in the class progression. He would be instant relief or depth but you would still have a hole in two yrs... at least you would have time to deal with it.

Geez! The last two posts have been a miraculous breath of fresh air. I thought I was alone on the rant in understanding this.

You are not alone. 2016 is the year I have concerns about at the LB position.

Sign a JUCO LB next year and don't worry.

We don't need one this year. We are set.

looks like he's still having problems at the aggy's. they signed a coupla of juco lb's and a 2 3 star lb this year. they also got no db's (cornerbacks; they got a coupla good safeties).

We have what 7 LBs on roster?, 4 are seniors I believe
Need at least 4 LB next year

Getting 1 this year would've been nice
