Re: Darren Myles Almost donated money to Carver HS's bball team outside the Dome last night. I wanted to ask some of them if they knew where DM was leaning I think it's looking good.
Re: Darren Myles This one is gonna be a tough tough battle all the way to the end. I hope he is ours.
Re: Darren Myles In their take on Thursday's practice, ESPN mentioned Myles: playing the high-point positions for both squads were Darren Myles Jr. (Atlanta/Carver) and Stephon Gilmore (Rock Hill, S.C./South Pointe). Both of these players have flashed great range, breaking quickness and physicality -- separating the ball from even the more imposing receivers. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncaa/recruiting/football/columns/story?columnist=tucker_billy&id=3804133
Re: Darren Myles Here's what Myles said about LSU: LSU: "I am originally from New Orleans so I grew up an LSU fan. Coach Miles is a great, great guy. I had a lot of fun when I went up there. I knew one of their players, Chad Jones. We are good friends, so we caught up." But he also said nice things about Purdue, Bama, Ohio St, and West Virginia. As for Tennessee, he said: "I actually talked to (Monte) Kiffin," Myles said. "He told me I was the first recruit he has called. That meant a whole lot. He told me he had been looking over film and was impressed." Myles said he is going to wait until National Signing Day: "I am not going to decide until Signing Day," Myles said. "I am just going to choose the school where I feel comfortable and feel like I can have the most impact and be successful at."
Re: Darren Myles Maybe he was the 1st call from Kiffen but I know Kiffen went straight from the introduction press conference to see Marlon Brown.
Re: Darren Myles He called him right after he took the test and passed it that Spurrier was needling him about!:rofl:
Re: Darren Myles Myles on LSU: When asked how would it feel to be a part of LSU's 2009 recruiting class if it were to end up at number one, Myles responded, "It would feel great if in the end I think LSU is the best fit for me." "Russell Shepard is cool," Myles stated. "I feel like him and I already have a good relationship. It's going to be cool playing with him this weekend. Me and Craig Loston also have a good relationship. It wouldn't bother me if LSU took the both of us because we could always end up playing on the field together at the same time." http://blog.nola.com/tigerrag/2008/12/the_comfort_zone.html
Re: Darren Myles After Thursday practice, Rivals said Myles is every bit as talented as any safety on either squad and looks like he has a great future ahead of him, but he needs to bulk up.
Re: Darren Myles If we end up with Myles and Loston, does anyone think we look to convert Loston to a CB? He was playing some CB in the Army game, right?
