i think he's better than average; he's got good football smarts being Sal Sunseri's son...and hits like a mofo.

I would compare his skills and potential to that of maybe...Adam Archuleta. Adam started out as a walk-on and LB at AZ St....

Adam Archuleta was an absolutely freakish athlete. I don't put Sunseri's athleticism in the Top 5 for your starters on Defense to be honest.

A guy like a Jack Hunt who has above average athleticism but extremely good instincts, absorbs scheme & tape, and can translate that knowledge and mental acuity into on-the-field play and incorporate quality instruction on technique and play within said scheme can play dominate football without a hyperathletic physical freakish type of ability.

But I can tell ya'll one thing, Vinny's gonna get a big push from Landon. If LC doesn't see the field then LC ain't gonna be happy. What 5-Star that puts on a self-aggrandizing act like that would? But beyond that, I'll be surprised as Saban loves to get "the best 11" on the field in some way.

I'm completely confident in saying that LC will be one of your best 11 players if he can get the reps at Camp & absorbs the Defense fast enough.
