re: Thoughts on Jayden Scott - DL

I think we need about 3 or 4 more like this. Go get all the DL prospects from Louisiana, Miss, Texas, Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Missouri and Tenn that you can possibly find with the same type of frame and talent. Bring those guys in here and let them develop.

Do the same at corner and in 3 years we’ll be getting the 4* and 5* talent to add to these guys already developing. Then you play the best guys. It’s that simple. No LSU can’t sustain success by having to settle every year but that isn’t what’s going on at LSU. We have down years but we’ll have good years to add those physically gifted kids as well as these later bloomers.

You let the guys who aren’t developing transfer and you keep bringing in talent. In 3 years we’ll have a full 2 deep roster at every position just like we have now on the OL and along the entire offense. We will get there but it does take some time to build that “quality” depth.

That doesn’t mean we won’t have enough talent to compete with the big boys, it just means we’ll keep having to develop, bring in better talent and scout the portal for immediate impact players to fill starting roles.

My hope is by then we’ll have a great reputation for offensive players and defensive players to be able to land the nationally recognized prospects and add the best Louisiana players from HS every year.
