    Glynn posts on TD sometimes. He did say hes going to LSU as a walk-on and that hes great friends with Mingo. Some idiot posted Mingo to Texas because of the typo in the AA game and he came to debunk that. He claims he has no idea where Mingo is going but hes probably doing that so he doesn't take away from his recruitment. Don't really know much about him other than that though.

    I know that during the entire process they have gone on the same visits together and really wanted to play together in college.

    Mingo has been and still is a lock to LSU.

    Mingo will be a stud at whatever position he plays.

    I bet it's DE.

    Imagine Alem's quickness X 2.

    He'll see the field quicker if he moves to DE.

    It all depends on how quickly he develops. IMO, the coaches will get him up to LB size, and if he starts pushing it & looks like he could gain more he will move to DE.

    Looks good in gold. Can someone photoshop the black to purple. Lets create some positive energy here.

    I would think for a guy with his build, putting on 15 lbs a year (in the correct places :wave:) would be about the limit.

    So, it'd probably take him no less than 3 years to get to DE weight, correct?

    I've seen successful DEs at about 240.

    Greg Hardy stands about 250 I think.

    They could make a hell of a rush-end out of him at that size..Jevon Kearse-like.

    Exactly, someone along those lines.

    Quickness is a bitch for a LT/RT to contend with.
