I'm hoping it's Giovanni LaFrance.
Don't think De'jon Harris is underrated at LB (but could exceed), LaFrance being better than expected would really bolster LB depth which we desperately need.



Lafrance just doesnt really jump out at me, Harris was ultra productive though. Reminds me a bit of former hog LB Sam Olajubutu. Short but just plain produces.

Is Spencer gonna qualify? I knew he reclassified to a senior and for some reason this allegedly raised eligibility concerns.

Marquis McClain for Auburn (out of the 3* level guys).

He's 6'2, 209lbs and acc'd to his track times he's run best times of 4.43 in the 40 and 10.98 in the 100....also has a vertical of over 40 inches.

Very much in the mold of a Sammie Coates (bad hands included).

For LSU I feel like most of us fans would say QB Lindsey Scott Jr. Louisiana Gatorade player of the year, Parade All American and Offense-Defense All American.



Not to mention, son of UGA folk hero Lindsey Sr. Lindsey Jr is going to be a good one.


As far as a UGA kid as the most underrated; I will have to go with Charlie Woerner. 6 ft 3, 200 lb WR that runs a legit 4.5 or 4.6 and can jump. He never did any camps or anything, so he remained hidden in the north GA mountains. Super athletic kid that will cause match up problems for defenses in the SEC from either the H-Back, TE, or WR positions. He and Nauta will be key targets for Eason for a few years.

Myles Hartsfield... that man can really violate defenses and sneak through tight holes.

Joshua Jacobs or Jamar King.

Jacobs is Kenyan Drake 2.0, can run like the wind blows

King is a grown arse man
He probably starts and wreaks havoc next year

If you mean by the pay sites, it was SC RB commit Rico Dowdle. He was recently named as a PARADE All American and had almost 2400 yds of rushing this year and 60 total TD's. He was a 3* on several sites and 247 had him as a 90 rating 4*.

Quinnen Williams hasn't got a lot of attention, but the coaching staff sees him being as good as Marcel Darius

Yeah his final 4 consisted of LSU, Maryland, Tulane and Harvard.


Even if Harvard wasn't legitimately in my top 4, I'd still put them there if it was an option.

Dunno, I think he hadn't taken his ACT yet or something? I just assumed if he had all the classes to get pushed forward a year, surely he can qualify academically? I hope so...

One of the guys we took from Miami, Latrell Williams who listed as a 3* WR but apparently runs a 4.27. He could become a Pig Howard type player for us, as long as he stays out of trouble unlike Pig.

Is he really that short? I like the comparison though because 'butu was a sure tackler

I agree 100% about Woerner but I noticed in UGA's commitment list he was listed at 6'5 249lbs, I was like whoa if this is indeed correct, he's 15lbs heavier than Nauta. I would also mention 3 star OT Chris Barnes. I truly think he might be a diamond in the rough, his pop is 6'9 so he might not be through growing.

I'm not sure that's his father. The UGA Lindsay Scott spells his name differently. Hence my Username.
