You're not excited for Bo Scarbrough? He's one of the most athletic guys in this class. He gets seriously undersold here because A) fournette dreams B) fear of flipmas C) "he doesn't have a position"

This guy has a ceiling at RB as high as anyone in the country, including Leonard fournette.

I just hope if he is the only RB he decides to stay (sure he will)

I hope he decides to stay regardless. In the slim chance we land fournette I want a guy like Bo competing with him for the carries. The dude is a beast, plain and simple.

I saw this posted on another site. Pretty crazy. A breakdown of our class: (by 247 composite)
#1 OT Cam Rob
#1 JUCO OT Jackson
#1 C Hassenauer
#1 SDE Hand
#2 C Casher
#2 K Scott
#3 ATH (RB) Scarbrough
#3 S Hootie
#3 OLB Miller
#3 JUCO DT Reed
#4 Pro-Style QB Cornwell
#5 OT Pierschbacher
#5 OLB Ronnie Clark
#5 ILB (Zach Whitley)
#8 ILB Hamilton
#9 DT (Josh Frazier)
#10 CB Bessent

Add in that we have a good shot of landing #1 cb, #1 ILB, #4 cb (though we lose the #10 cb), #8 S. You have 20 recruits who are ranked in the top 10 of their position.

#3 OLB Miller


There aren't two OLB better than Christian Miller. He is vastly underrated by everyone other than 247.

That's how I feel about Rivals, Scouts and ESPN's rankings.

We could have 11 ee

Someone explain to me how that works with EEs. What determines how many we can take?

We can take as many as we have room for on the 85. Only can backcount them to the last class if there are spots open in it.

Geaux247's Tiger Wrap (their version of BOL's War Room, paraphrased of course):

-Source close to Tony Brown's family says that Miles' in-home visit on Sunday sealed the deal for LSU. Oh well.
-Shea Dixon says that Fournette and family have made it clear to LSU that he is staying home. Oh well.
-Gerald Willis is going to sign with LSU.
-Miami commit Chad Thomas says he talks to Nick Saban more than any coach.
-They expect CJ Hampton to flip to us too.

I wonder what the conversation between Bessent and Smart was like. I would love to have been a fly on the wall.

What are the odds that Bessent never looked Smart in the eyes one time.

I hope we keep him. We need corners in this class. We have room for Bessent, along with Marlon and Tabor. Why pass on any of them?
