I have t heard anyone say a good the about McKinley in quite a while. He hasn’t lived up to the 5 star rating at all. Reports sound like the freshmen and transfers have passed him up.

Like list. I do think our starting 3 wr set is Wilson, Jayce brown, and Watkins. And Durham looks ahead of berry but it’s close

3 of 5 starting OL are RS SR’s. Don’t underestimate this.

The other 2 are JR and RS SO.

Berry is great but he is 187.

Dillin Jones is 5’11 213lb. It will be a 1-2 punch if anything

If Kiffin is as smart as I think he is, I expect him to use Berry much like Sean Payton used Reggie Bush, routinely as a mismatch vs a LB in the passing game. Berry was a lethal weapon in 7-on-7's, and that part of his game so far has surprisingly been untapped. Get this dude 1-on-1 in space. He's electric. Let Jones & Durham get the tough yards

Almost unrecognizable for me to see so many out of state players


This is the result of needing to pick up so many pieces from the portal. Give it time and LSU will be retaining those in State talents, and with Kiffin's eye for talent, we get back to signing these kids that given time are capable of producing.

All of that. The Reggie Bush comparison is pretty apt.

And Barry is much more physical, even at his lighter weight than most people give him credit for.

Give him a little bit of daylight. He’s got great vision very elusive and can take it the distance on almost any play.

The kid has tools no other back on the team has. Truly, a gamebreaker back and, in this offense, is going to absolutely shine.


The Veer and Shoot usually features a bigger North/South back that can pound between the tackles. Not saying Berry won’t shine, but Kiffin will feature Dillin a little more than Berry

The catch there is it’s hard to put someone in the passing game if they can’t pass protect. Durhams best quality may be his pass pro so I think he’ll get more run than people realize this year. Could see Berry a lot more frequently in 2 back sets to counter act that.


Jones is the bruiser, Durham the 3rd down back, Berry the change of pace back. How much each gets used probably depends on match up, how well our Oline blocks different types of running concepts, and game flow.

Isn’t Jayce Brown supposed to be our best receiver? Why would you anticipate him being 2nd string?

We basically have 4 starters at WR. Tre Wilson, Jackson Harris, Winnie Watkins, and Jayce brown will all see starter reps at WR
