I'm hoping we keep 2 out of ego, Johnson, and Collins.

I think Landry and Beckham are gone.

The rest can hit the road.

Beckham did leave the ball on the ground a few more times than he should have.

Landry is bigger, more physical and has much better hands. mett targeted ODB more but Landry is perceived but many to be better.

Landry is a poor man's megatron. Don't take that as me saying he's nearly as good, but he is a similar player.



I'd say he's been more like Colston for LSU this year.

Calm down. Just thought it was interesting since there was a large group that left last season

i know honestly it wont surprise me if we see a large exit again.

id like one of hill, hilliard, or blue to stay. Id like hill but lately he hasn't ran very well. I would really like to see us ditch the 4 back deal and go with a more bama like 2 back rotation. I feel that gives the best players the most snaps and allows them to get in a groove but even with that id rather us be deeper than Magee and a true frosh lf.

Ego should probably go, and johnson should stay. Johnson hasn't lived up to his nickname at all this year but im guessing he leaves as well.

I cant blame obj and landry for leaving, new qb coming in so it could hurt their draft stock. They have also earned it by dominating on the field.

Collins should stay especially if we get a legit oline coach in the offseason.

fwiw i wont be surprised if none of them return, our guys haven't made the best decisions career wise as of late.

Who would be there to replace them if all three were to leave?

It's actually been a civil discussion.

I prefer a 3 back system. Would have loved if Henry or Altee had gotten more touches. You are one injury away from being screwed and two away from being UGA

We have a lot of options at this point esp. If we sign most of the guys we want this year

I agree, injuries can be a concern but i think sabans 2 back way is the best. Of course you recruit more backs and ideally have 4 good backs on the team at any given time but use 2 to get the bulk of the carries and then maybe the 3rd as a very rare change of pace. If one guy goes down then slip in the next.

With the guys you are bringing in, rs freshman, sophomores, Cam and Chavis this team will be scary in 2 or 3 years. With a mobile qb, Cam can do so much more to keep a defense of balance.

Yeah I think we finally get something special going in the next two years, esp with the 2016 recruiting shaping up to be a monster class as well

yea it looks like 2015 will be our year but we have seen LSU spring up a year early than they were suppose to before. The best examples of that are 03 and 11. I remember going into both seasons we were supposedly a year away and it all came together.

In state talent level is pretty insane this year and 2016. We just got a commitment from Ed Alexander who is a beast DT

Yea, and we won't be able to keep coming in sneaking the top players out. Especially if you guys have already gotten them this early. Smart move by Les
