    Just noticed that Odom still has visits to Tennessee and Southern Miss in January..... Wonder if he'll cancell those visits??? :confused:

    Claims in the article that he has known that he would commit to LSU for months...

    a LB that isn't 200 lbs?

    I am assuming he may redshirt?

    you can put 25 pounds on an 18 year old in about 6 months... he could be 225 by next season..

    don't get me wrong, I am thrilled that he signed, b/c I know he can play... I just was wondering if he will be a true freshman on the field

    he could play... doubt it would be on D unless he gets up to weight.. he would be good on special teams though..

    Have you seen some pictures of this guy?! There's one action shot of him from one of the summer combines and he is RIPPED UP!

    He may only been 200 lbs....but it's all muscle I can tell you that much! Besides, putting on 10-15 lbs. isn't hard to do...hell, I think I put that much weight on over the Christmas weekend! :thumb:

    In terms of the LB group for next year, some of our true freshmen may play out of neccessity rather than on pure talent alone--we're just lucky enough to have some LB recruits that are talented enough to play.... They just might find themselves in the starting lineup a little quicker than even they expected.
