Looking forward to him chasing down Jordan Travis anytime he attempts to escape out of the pocket or extend the play. We need Savion to create a lot of pressure off the edge and the interior guys to collapse the pocket as well.

I think you're a year early on this. If LSU history tells us anything, it's that he'll have a great year this season and then next season get into off the field trouble or get injured.

As for those who are worried he'll be schemed out of the game, it's much easier to scheme him out of the game as a pin your ears back stand up rush end than a middle linebacker. Also, his impact getting after the quarterback will not be felt if LSU can't stop the run, which they couldn't do against Faggie and UGA.

This was the biggest TRAVESTY of last season. The fact that the coaching staff didn’t play HP earlier enough and especially in the first half of the Tennessee game when he was dynamic the game before. Coaches are tasked with identifying and utilizing talent as best as they can and I don’t believe they did that with HP in the first half of the season and then he made excuses as to why they didn’t.

I wanna see hits like Skalski in the championship game (minus the targeting of course). That guy laid the wood.

Gosh if only Brian Kelly and Matt House knew as much football as SlowFlowPro, maybe we’d be able to get Perkins to his full potential fricking joke

They're not infallible, bubba.

Hell, even vastly superior coaches (in the NFL) made the same mistake for years with Micah Parsons (who, gladly, is now a full-time edge).

Did folks not see what House does with players like Perkins? Much of the same with Kelly.

Look at what happened with Stingley. His production was nowhere near what he was expected to do after a stellar freshman season.


Tell me you don't know shite about football without telling me you don't know shite. They tested him his freshman year and he made them pay. After that, the ball was rarely thrown to the guy he was guarding. He's not going to light up the stat sheet when they flat out don't even attempt to throw the ball his way.

Tell me you can’t comprehend fricking English with out telling me you’re retarded.

I fricking said “they could scheme for the specific player or the player could get injured” Read more, type less, Dumbfrick!

Hey guys. Just checking in to see how he did. Did he put some folks in “Perkatory?” Asking for a friend.

Where’s the 21 know it all sumbitches from this ol post? Lol. Especially the assholes that wanted to get personal with insults. Where’s your hero Perkins??? Oh he’s in his sophomore slump? I was scolded and told he wouldn’t have one of those. Dumbasses.!
