Yeah I have zero doubt that this kid told people he was coming here. It's really hard for anyone in media to share that a player has told them he's coming here and then turn around and publicly question whether that's really what's going to happen.

Apparently we are going after a DT in Louisiana for the last spot.

@TDANarcisse: In case you are wondering where Westgate's Tae Thibodeaux is going? still undecided. Holding papers from Arkansas and awaiting Louisville.

@TDANarcisse: Thibodeaux hasn't visited either school. My recommendation is he shouldn't sign today and then take those visits.

@TDANarcisse: Tae Thibodeaux doesn't appear to be stressed, walking around smiling and eating. What a tough decision he has to make

Per Rivals and Scout, he's 260 pounds. Sounds like he needs to be eating.

He may be projected to be a LB, but played with his hand on the ground in HS.

Evans was the same way.

So apparently Jackson hasn't faxed in his LOI yet. Don't put that number 25 away to soon fax chick.



So, did this kid ever sign and fax? What's the deal?

I'm ready for him to sign wherever and be done with him.

Rivals had him as a DT while Scout simply had DL. Who knows.

His hudl video doesn't look too shabby. He's definitely a DL though.

I don't know in his case, it was just an example.

You will have guys rated as OTs who are projected and play at Guard/center etc on the O line.

Then you have guys who played Dline moving to LB, LB to saftey, RB to LB, etc.

That is one reason why the rankings shouldn't be taken as anything more than entertainment, they often project guys to positions that is different than they are recruited for.

He's probably running around his HS like:

Does anyone have a stamp?

I need a stamp?

If I don't have it stamped and mailed in the next 45 minutes, it won't arrive cross county tomorrow, may be the day after.

Stamp please.

Anyone else tired of hearing the recruiting guys say what a good guy he is? He's a straight up liar and created a shite ton of drama for no reason other than he felt like it. Future preacher my arse.
