On Alston:

quote:

The 6-foot-2, 256-pound mauler generated 36 pressures this past fall while totaling 11.5 tackles for loss and six sacks (45 tackles overall). It all amounted to a 90.9 PFF grade, including a 90.5 pass rush grade. That number ranked seventh among all defensive players nationally across 475 snaps.

Is that good? That looks good. I’m going to assume that’s good. Very good.

No, he sucks. He’s from Marshall. That’s why UGA paid for him to visit, so they could laugh at him about not offering a scholarship.

In 22 & 23, Lsu has added players Tulane (previously at Marshall), FIU, East Tenn St, Ulala (2x), & SE Louisiana. I guess everyone "loads up on scrubs".

Yeah and you saw LSU's Defense made up of most of these types of players. I think BK got the most he could out of them with 2 10 win seasons but LSU now looking to build thru High school recruiting. I get it thou A&M lost a ton of players.

Damn LSU fans....pure jealousy. They see what is happening as they have massive needs at defense...but Elko keeps taking the top guys.

You A&M guys are a funny bunch but i guess you do have to have a sense of humor when you have the winning tradition A&M has.

So are you going to go into the specifics of your criticisms of Elijah Alston or just keep blabbering like a bitch?


Is he still the Randy Moss of EDGE defenders or is he processed?

Do you think Georgia, Miami, Arkansas, Miss St, and others were all wrong on him?
Interesting. According to you, Arch Manning was massively overrated despite Georgia and Alabama offering him and recruiting him until the end...

Agreed. Arch overrated AF.
Funny how that works when a player commits to Texas instead of Texas A&M

You dug up a post from 2 years ago? How sad are you? Of course Manning is overrated. Have you seen him play? Why do you think he can't beat out Ewers?

Pretty sure he decommitted. So he sucks again. Kidding on that last part, I have no idea on 90% of these portal kids.

Actually it was a simple google because I could smell your hypocrisy from a mile away.

But but but... Alabama and Georgia offered! I thought that meant he's not overrated (going off of your metrics)

I... never... said... he would? Isn't Ewers also a No. 1 overall recruit, and isn't he also up the draft boards this year despite not yet declaring?

I think Texas fans are perfectly happy with Ewers at the current moment with Arch as a backup. Seems like both of them accept that result as well if that's what it comes to in 2024

Can he play defensive tackle? If so I think he’d be incredible for LSU
