Kwon was begging for an offer and never got it. Hes a pretty big miss, exactly the kind of LB that we are now needing against all these hunh spread teams.

Rivals shows him as having received an offer from Bama?

He had a Bama offer and was towards the top of the LB list for his Jr season. After the knee injury, Saban decided to look elsewhere. He had an early offer but I don think it was commit-able after the injury.

LSU is thankful. Dude is a beast. I do wonder how he would have for into your defense. Seems like a tweener in a 3-4.

You passed since he had the ACL tear, and Miles stuck with him. Way to go Saban

Like Culpepper over Brees. Thanks Nick. (I know Brees wasn't his fault though)

we dont really play a 3-4 anymore, just in name. 95% of our snaps has 4 down linemen (sometimes olb is the other DE with hand in dirt)

I think there is some truth to our concerns over his injury.

To answer the question, Denzel Devall and Ryan Anderson.

It's not like Bama is hurting to LB's. He's a good player but Bama still got equal or better talent in that class.

He's crazy good. Earlier in the year he looked like the only consistently good player we had. Big mistake on Saban's fault.

And I can't help chuckle about all that Gump/Hootie drama when I see Jamal Adams drawing comparisons to a young Eric Berry and looking like a superhero out there.

LBs we took that year were Ryan Anderson (very good), Denzel Devall (pretty good),Tyler Hayes (tpos), Dillon Lee (good),Reggie Ragland (great). So im gonna say we should have taken Kwon over Tyler Hayes.

Kwon has turned into a great one,but Reggie Ragland is def. turning into a beast. Can't wait to see the BAMA LSU game, so many story lines.

Lol at people in here laughing at Saban. Yes, he missed. Hindsight is 20/20. When you recruit the best of the best, sometimes you miss on other talent while pursuing what you think is better. Every elite recruiter has multiple misses like this instance. I'm thankful Saban did, but I'm not going to laugh or mock him for it. Miles does it too

Every recruiting class has a miss, but the elite programs have the option of getting another 4 star or 5 star player to replace the miss.

Exactly. Still wish bama would've signed him. As mentioned earlier itt, the storylines in this game will be great.

I love that Gump arrogance! Like all that has to happen is Little Nicky make a phone call. He CHOSE LSU and we chose him! Not everyone wants to put up with Little Nicky's BS.
