With only 4 slots open, it's gonna be interesting. You never know what can happen, but most say Surtain is a lock to LSU. Most feel that Joseph is all LSU as well. It's looking really good for Chase too. Joiner has had LSU his leader through out, but could Bama sway him? I'm not sure there is a place any longer for Foster if all four want to sign.
Not seeing that at all. Here's his "crystal ball" page today: https://247sports.com/PlayerInstitu...dville-Magnet-168300/CurrentExpertPredictions
I'm hearing the kicker we signed will now count for the '18 class. That now leaves us with only three spots available and 4, possibly 5 leans. With the early signing period, we can't grayshirt a kid who could afford to pay his way for a year. Should be interesting to see who actually signs and who may be passed up. I'd go with Surtain, Joseph, and Chase in that case. While I really want Joiner, since we need a big powerful back, and we would be finally stealing a Bama kid away I rather keep instate kids. Unless it's a serious need and or the potential for one is that much greater.
Yeah, that’s what I read too. They were trying to get him to count as something other than a recruit, since he’s a transfer, but the designation didn’t hold, and NCAA said he counts against this class reducing the number from 5 to 4
