Can anyone verify what DD said today about Lonergan? He claimed at the Dutchtown combine he did 26 curls with 185 lbs. Does anyone have access to his bench press stats or anything that would suggest he would be capable of this? This just seems like an incredible feat. Perhaps Dandy is confused and it was bench press reps. DD also named names on who he believes LSU will get over the next 2 weeks. If we want all of them I hope he is right, but it seemed a bit ambitious. Clements, Tolliver, Higgins, Edwards and the Taylors were his favorites. I could see us getting either or both Taylors quickly if we offer them because they supposedly have a brother on the team already. Clements and Edwards had relatives that played for us in the past so I think that should certainly give us an advantage.
Alot of the bigger name recruits won't commit this early if they at least want to take official visits (in violation of Miles' policy) I'd guess.
All of them have been listed as strong LSU leans, so I could see them all commiting before summer, but not all of them during this week.
It must be bench presses. At the NFL combine they bench 225 lbs for reps and many hit over 20 reps. I think Reggie Bush did in fact. So 185 lbs for 28 reps would be quite reasonable for a high school kid, but I don't think he could curl that.
apparently it was a case of mistaken identity. in an effort to not be overlooked in the draft, brady quinn decided to show up at all the high school workouts and do curls with his teeth. this is said to not only explain dandy don's report but brady quinn's teeth as well.
