    Short yardage tight ends. We can line up four tackles, in effect.

    Brandon Harris 6'3" 206 lbs. He is fitting the mold more now as far as size goes. Lets hope to see some physicality along with that. Of course none of that matters if he cant learn the playbook and learn his reads. But I like that he has added size.

    surprised?

    Harris looks good. The added muscle is going to serve him well. I had to look twice when I saw him because he is built more like Jennings now. I think Harris is going to be our guy this year and he is going to surprise some folks.

    I agree, he looks the part much more than last year.

    Funny, LSU has run a 4-3, but a few former LSU players have moved into the NFL playing the Nose Tackle Position at times. Bennie Logan, Glenn Dorsey, Ego Ferguson, Al Woods are a few. Kyle Williams has played all three position on a 3-4 for the Bills. More and more teams are going with a changing front, 3-4 and 4-3.

    The Bears from Butkus, Singletary to Urlacher, have always used a 4-3, this year they move to a 3-4.

    With LSU just getting the best 11 on the field may do wonders.

    Boutte "could move a truck with flat tires"

    Guard Josh Boutte was highly ranked coming out of New Iberia's Westgate High School and now everyone will get to see why. The 6-foot-5, 342-pound mauler has been physically dominating defenders during fall camp, according to sources. One source said "Boutte could move a truck that had flat tires" when referencing the junior's ability to create holes in the running game. Look for LSU to run often behind Boutte and right tackle Vadal Alexander, a duo one LSU assistant coach tabbed as "the most physically dominant tandem in the SEC."
