O’s greatest strength is being told to go get XYZ. He was not very good at making a shopping list.

10 years ago you'd be correct. In 2022, schools pass on them everyday. That role is primarily a 1 down, situational one in this age of offenses. Most of them end up outside or on the DL these days. Of course there are always exceptions but more often than not a big Mike is a situational guy. More of a role in a 3-4 of course but still situational. Next part isn't aimed at you

Catfish John is being down voted to death but he's not entirely incorrect. 2A is a big step down from college. We've all seen how big the step from low level LA to college is for many highly ranked prospects instate. More failures than successes in the recruiting rankings era.
All I've seen "proving' Catfish wrong thus far is a couple of guys with personal feelings involved actually using what college coaches tell a kid as evidence. It's called "recruiting" for a reason. Those same coaches tell multiple kids the same exact things like "you're #1 on our board". It's sales 101. To be taken with huge grains of salt. These coaches are taking 30 kids this year. They can't all be #1 on the board. They can be told so. Huge difference.

There’s no credence to this lol

Dude I’m sorry he is not a better athlete than Harold Perkins. And why compare him to Keuchly?

I wonder? LOL I mean Ibiea is the next Julian Edelman. We know why the Rant makes these comparisions lol

That's a really good article and worth reading the whole thing. Based on the quotes from Tackett and family the staff made a significant impression. You can tell the difference in courtesy statements and genuine interest and it sounds like LSU is in serious contention. If Curtis goes elsewhere it won't be because the staff didn't do their job.

I mean who doesn't? I think our chances are growing by the day as time passes post-O era.

Here are a few good reasons why he should go to LSU:
1. Your friends and family can easily drive in for the weekend to watch you play.
2. You're able to play for your state which adds a little extra something to play for.
3. The state of Ohio is miserably cold.
4. Being a recognizable name as an ex-Tiger football player is like gold ink on a resume.

Once he sets his official visit in Tiger Stadium on a Saturday night and compares that to Ohio State's games where he freezes his arse off, I think we have him sold.
