    He is getting a visit from the coaching staff this week. They will watch one of his practices.

    He got his offer while checking out from camp. He was offered as an ATH but he will most likely end up at LB because of his size. They liked him at DE and FB at camp as well.

    Miles said they would take a commit now if he was ready but Bates said he wants some time to discuss it with his family.

    Could be any day now.

    LSU lock.

    great size for a LB, would he be too tall for FB at 6'3?

    I think he's more like 6'2, isn't his size similiar to Kellen Theriot?

    Similar to Theriot.

    I wouldn't think FB too much because it was his 1st time ever playing the position but one of the coaches said he looked like a natural for his 1st time.
