I think he's gone. He will go top 3 rounds based off of his physical ability alone. He'll tear up the combine.

However, he was projected as a first rounder this year so maybe with Etling returning at QB and an offseason with a different coach he stays to try and get back into the 1st round? Hope so.

you right i just looked it up he will be a SR next year. yea could not blame the young man if he did. plus how tough DE plays you would really have to drag him off the field. sucks i really like Harris and loved to see that guy sling the rock deep but he was put in a bad situation with the scheme he was running. Do you think if he had another shot this year or next that he would do well?

Valentine is a jr next year I thought? Doesn't he have to come back?

Corey Thompson used to play safety, maybe he'll be back there. I think Divinity will surprise a lot of people next year. Really good potential as an edge rusher. Will see lots of pressure with him and key.
Donnie Alexander is the ILB I forgot about. I agree with you

I dont know. I really like Corey Thompson at that F linebacker spot. Can cover if needed and also would be big enough to run support

This kinda reminds me of 2011 loaded with talent and let's remember LF saying he thinks they are more talented then his class!

Not to mention what we can close this class with. A win against bama could go a LONG way in sending a message to these recruits nation wide that LSU is back on track and ready to win some hardware. Come join this special group of young men and help be the team to compete with Bama yearly. They can't get everyone so let's join em and start winning this match up, at least our home game with bama.

We need some dbs to step it up next year. Especially at CB. That unit may struggle without white.

Remember Valentine went Juco after his freshman year. He was in the 2014 class.

Thompson was the presumed starter at F-LB ahead of Bower before the injury.

And for the guys asking about Monroe, talk from another board is that he has really impressed, the injuries just set him back in the offseason.

My super early bold prediction for next season is more shuffling on the OL. I think Okeke takes over the LT spot. Clapp to C, Maea and Weathersby at G, Malone at RT.

Thanks for the info smash!

I do like Thompson but I also like divinity. Good problem to have I guess.

Hopefully Monroe is as advertised.
