He's the cousin of Kevin Faulk and Trev Faulk who is his high school coach. He's been considered an LSU lock. Committing on Halloween after pushing back his time table a few times as bama pressed. It looks like Saban is getting a birthday present sadly. 2020 man..
Can’t believe we lost out on this kid. Hope O doesn’t stop pressing, but no way offering Langlois was a coincidence.
losing a relative of the rb coach? hard to imagine, losing thomas as well; both being positions of need. head scratcher.... maason smith may be next to ga, and the 5* OL is trending to chokelahoma....
@Brian do you think there’s any chance we land Savion Byrd if Leigh goes to OU? He’s been an OU lean for a while, but if Leigh goes there, he’ll have some stiff competition.
I he goes to Bama, I have to believe the play of our defense this year was a huge part in the decision.
Word is Ryan’s mom is very high in Saban and Bama. Also, Thomas Sr. is very high on A&M. Who knows, but if we miss on these 2, it will sting like a bitch.
Honestly don’t care much about Thomas. We are fucking loaded at WR right now, and passing on him could yield dividends in the future. Ryan does sting, but whatever. Tiger bait. There are 2 LA safeties in the top 100 in 2022, and we already have two other safeties committed in the top 100. Just need Harris and Hampton to step it up a bit.
I think Byrd ends up at SMU, but if he doesn't I like our chances as much as anyone. He didn't come to the Tiger Turnout with any family though so we need him to come back with mom for us to be even realistic imo. He would be the jewel of the SMU turnaround and he's got lots of connections there. I think Leigh and tOSU are our biggest competition right now despite Caleb at OU but I could be wrong. I know his mom loves us though, and I think they're planning to move wherever he goes to college.
