Someone from our board has asked the question.

White is probably visiting tFlagship Thursday and staying 4 days

he's just maximizing his travel time before he commits to lsu

Maybe I'm wrong, but he seems like a slightly more athletic Jalston Fowler. Which isn't the worst comparison, considering Fowler was a fourth round pick by the Titans. But maybe I underestimate White, and he's another Eddie Lacy.

I personally think he would be a better LBer than RB. His highlights covering RBs out of the backfield at the Rivals 5-star Challenge were fricking legit.

Your lack of depth at RB after this season is appealing, no doubt. He is the only RB we are recruiting for the 2016 class. However, we brought in 2 studs in 2015. LSU has always been a RB by committee team though.

Other than size, very different players. Fowler is way way slower than White is.

Fowler was very quick before his knee injury in 2012.

Yup, I feel the same way. He'd make a damn good MLB if he wanted to be.

You guys offer immediate playing time in 2016.

White has legit top end speed, he's ran numerous 4.5 (flat) 40s at 250-260 pounds at camps this summer, Fowler was never near that.

White also runs track and I believe ran the state finals for 100m.

We know...We pointed that out several times ITT as a reason we COULD get a good look.

All our eggs are in the DW basket it "seems" like...

Lots of folks agree that Darren McFadden could have been an All American safety too. Our need was at RB though, and probably would be the same with White.

Let me guess. You got that from BugaPainTrain?


I feel bad for the people that believed him.

I still don't think that Arky mod is as tapped in as he thinks he is. But that's because I don't believe that White and his family would outright lie to our staff. (other recruits have done that, no doubt, but I always try to give the benefit of the doubt)
