Best player on our team. He's gonna push Bradie to be the best LB ever.

Here's LSU highlights. Pretty much the Devin White show.

This is the 1st gif I've ever made



I put the SEC on notice back in August

quote:

Player on your team that will be a household name by seasons end

For LSU it's Devin White 6'1" 248lb

An absolute athletic freak show. When he attending the opening 2 years ago, they began calling him weapon X because he could do literally everything. He ran the 40 in 4.49 seconds, had a 38.9" vertical and threw the power ball 44 feet. Aranada has went out of his way and spent tons of time with him one on one.






I may have underestimated his numbers back in January.

Devin White will have a historic season
Calling my shot here. I've been watching this kid since he was a sophomore highschool and I truly believe he's going to go the fuch off this year. 6'2" 240lber that ran down Lamar Jackson like it was nothing. He was an early enrollee last year so he's going to have had 2+ years under Aranda. He'll be the most athletic player Aranda has ever coached. Aranda is going to turn this kid into an All American.

100+ tackles 5+ sacks 3+ ints 4+ FF's

Need to add a gif of the flying takedown by the shoulders of the UF running back.

Dude's an animal out there! As he gains experience he'll start to take better angles and will be in better position. That is the only knock I have against him.

Is Bradie James considered our best ever?

Pretty sure everyone knew he’d be unreal.

He’s a freak.

Deleted. Sorry for saying I called it. Apparently that offended y'all.

The sky is the limit for him and realize it or not, he's still learning how to play! I see him take wrong steps sometimes, and still ends up influencing the play because he's so fast and explosive. He seems dedicated, and is improving every week.

He'll be able to play inside or outside in the NFL. I'm glad we have him inside because by sticking him in the middle of the field, there's hardly a play this guy doesn't get to. He's really a force of nature in the middle of that D

Young man is learning the position on the job. Once he masters angles to the ballcarrier he will be unstoppable. "THE Big Cat" on the prowl

He will supplant Heisman winner John David Crow as the best player to ever come out of sleepy Springhill, La. My step-dad is from there, and he knows some of Devin's older relatives...said they're strong as old bulls as well. Some people are born with "it". Devin could most likely never darken the door of LSU's weight room and still look like that. I'm glad he chose to be a Tiger and told Saban and others to get bent.

As long as he stays healthy he's on pace to easily get 100+ tackles this season. I'm not sure he'll break the single-season record yet, which Bradie James currently holds with 154.

White's legacy though might not just be tied to numbers.


BTW I can watch that Gif of White dumping Franks over and over and over...never gets old.

Finally we have an intimidator in the middle that can stuff the run on those monsters they put in the rb position. After watching White for two years now, it is obvious the hands and wrists on that guy are next level, and when he grabs you...it is over.

Might go down as Les' best position switch ever right next to Claiborne to DB.
