Agree with the premise but man, imagine if Gilbert wasn’t a head case and we had both..

One is an LSU guy and the other is
« assorted excuses », never dedicated to the program and in denial!

Bech is an LSU-legacy and represents the LSU on the front of his jersey, not his name on the back!!

A. Gilbert should be persona non grata and his condition, IF TRUE, is UGA’s problem!!

Gilbert is far more talented than Bech. He is bigger, faster, and the same hands.

Unfortunately Gilbert has issues that go beyond football that appear to be no fault of his own. There isn't a college football team in the country who wouldn't welcome Bech or take a chance on Gilbert.

that I mean he probably didn’t have the natural talent Gilbert had


This can be debated. Gilbert is taller, that’s it

Bech is the real deal. We will be fine without Gilbert and likely better with the personal issues he is dealing with. It is a shame but let's look forward to great things from JB.

Bech is really a WR. I would have loved to have them both.

Again, Bech is the best football player on the team. Not the fastest, strongest, most athletic (although a HELLuva athlete)…but the best football player on the team. Period.

Makes you wonder why it took them so long to give an offer to Bech. He was a late add. Heck a lot of teams passed on him. He was initially committed to Vandy.

The dude can ball…

I'm going with the guy who's playing for the Tigers. The other guy is out of football right now.

Bech is a nice story, but he’s going to get exposed in the SEC. Too small to block, too slow that he can be covered by safeties and LBs in the SEC.

I remember very few thought Bech was good enough for LSU when he committed to vandy
