Do people still compare Coleman to Ron Steele? Is he that good

I'm hoping we can steal Martin but I think the instate pressure will be too much unless LSU is just awful this year.

Justin Coleman is as skilled as they come, a few more inches and I'd think he'd have a good shot at a five-star ranking. The height deficiency is a HUGE question mark though. The avg height of PGs in college vs the ones hes been playing in HS is huge. Going to take a lot of confidence, speed, and craftiness for him to do well in the college game.

So I guess we wont be taking a PG this year. Guess Retin will be the backup. Also I really like COlemon but I think he really likes AU.

Shorter guys than him have had very successful college careers. Defense tends to be a problem for guys that size though.

Agreed. Releford as a HS senior was TINY

Oh I think he can do it. But the thing all of those successful short players have had is superior confidence, speed, and craftiness. Those things are what he needs to show at the next level. There isn't much you can do to cover the height deficit on defense except for staying in front of your man, picking pockets, and stalking the passing lanes. And like what bham just said he still has potential to grow a couple inches.

SG Davon Reed to Miami. Things continue to fall our way for Johnson.

@AdamZagoria: 2013 F Jarell Martin will take officials 'as of now' to #stjbb, UCLA, Alabama, Okla. State & Texas A&M, his coach Jeff Jones tells @SNY


I assume this means he'll just visit LSU unofficially since he's so close.

I haven't really been keeping up, what's your best educated guess on who you think we end up with?

I'd hope either Jajuan Johnson or Troy Williams and Jarrell Martin. I'll be really happy with 1 of those 3 though

Is anyone a member at BOL? They had an update with Shannon Hale and his official visit this past weekend.

Said he is basically done with recruiting. Had a good time hanging out with Levi and Lacey. Wants to make it back for a basketball game. Plans on signing in November.

We're not getting Troy Williams.

He's probably going to Indiana.
