    I see scout has him listed as a FB, but at 6'2 220 with a 4.5 why not try him out at LB, cause he played the position in HS. This kid looks like he is going to be a monster, I just hope we play him at the position that helps us the most!

    He will not play FB at LSU. Most likely LB but he could play at Safety as well.

    I hope he excels at LB, because we are lacking quality depth at that position.

    He's attending spring classes, so he is definitely one to watch for PT as a true freshman.

    It appears that Les Miles won't accept anything else.

    Theriot has already been quoted as saying that the coaches want him at LB because that is his best position, even though there may be earlier PT at RB.

    Ridely = Hester
    Theriot = OLB, probably Luke Sanders position.

    I agree with Parso, since Ridley fits the mold of a Jacob Hester, it sure does appear to make much more sense to use Theriot as an LB. We need him to excel and he is an early enrollee. Could easily make our 2 deep.

    Speaking of Ridley, I came across this yesterday. He has the confidence, drive, and passion for the game.
