What’s LSU’s reluctance to give a good look at Mandeville’s Nate Sheppard?

Looks very speedy and elusive. Duke got a steal.

Jump in on Lester's RB thread. Basically there's 8-10 kids who could play for LSU this year in state. What a good problem to have.

The consensus opinion is Berry and Lindsey are better. You can’t really take 3 in a class.

I would not be surprised if we added another RB via portal so we have more experience in the backfield.

LSU signed Dalton Hilliard, Garry ames, Gil Fenerty and Sammy Martin in the same recruiting year.

I would love to take a 3rd RB. Seems like Sheppard or Ford may be the ones in play if they decide to take a 3rd RB

Sure you can. Now, the "third" RB may not want to sign with a school taking two RBs they rank ahead of him, but the team can take 3. There's no rule against it. LSU may be in a position where they have to.

Williams is gone after this season and so is Emery. It is entirely possible Holley never plays another game for LSU. That means, at the moment, LSU is only returning Durham and Jackson.

With scholarships going from 85 to 105 you can take 3 or maybe 4 in a class.

That was prior to capped classes and you could sign 40 guys

This also isn't Les Miles.


Yall, come on now. Do you really think a good RB would be willing to come to LSU as the #3 option?

I believe they would have taken Simon, Lindsey, and Berry.
