Latest word on DeAngelo Benton is not good, so that may push us to a definite 3 WR's in this class. I don't see us going up to 4 though. Also, it looks like we may be adding another DB to the class, in which case perhaps Calhoun is being looked at as a WR...
:geaux::crystal::helmet: Assume the not so good news on Benton is grades? If so, that is a shame. Was really looking forward to seeing him on the field this year. Regarding Calhoun, is he still considered a solid commit for LSU? Thought I read in a post somewhere a few weeks ago that he wasn't that solid. I hope that was wrong because he seems to be highly regarded and would be a great addition to the '09 class. :geauxtige:champs::LSU231:
Revised: 1 TE - I'm feeling good about Wilson 3-4 DLine - At the moment, I'm not seeing another DE in this class. 3-4 LBs - I could see us going with just one more (Mingo). 3-4 OLine - IMO, we get one more OL in this class (looking good with Su'a-filo right now), the question is if Orelus sticks. 3 DB's - We're still recruiting a lot of them, but I am sticking with 3. 2-3 WR's - I'm inclined to say 3, but it depends on who the third would be 2 QBs 2 RBs - we're still in it with Richardson, but don't see him switching. If he did we'd take 3. That makes 19-23 recruits.
I agree with all of that. I think Sentimore has the speed to play DE if needed. I don't expect Orelus to waiver. I think we will end up with 3 WRs (Randle, Bell, and Patterson) Saw a report about a possible FB in this class but I think we will end up offering Cody Ledford (the FB/LB tweener).
That's true. I'm feeling much better about him now than I was. We still have to consider the possibility. Patterson is very possible, or maybe Appleton. I'd sure love to get DeBose. Yea, I saw that as well, but Ridley is a Hester type player & can play FB & RB. Plus, Crowton doesn't use the FB a whole lot so I'm just not sure the need there. I don't see us offering Ledford.
Ridley was originally recruited as a FB/LB before they saw his athleticism so I feel pretty confident they would save a scholarship by using him there, if needed.
