but you went entirely off on how Berry and Lindsey are "scat backs" or whatever and Simon was an every down back because he weighed a whopping 5-13 pounds more than either.
This is so childish & speaks to the current state of this board to think “I went entirely off”, in which was a very normal discussion over RBs that are all very much worthy to be compared to one another.
I’m sure 3 years from now when JT Lindsey scores a touchdown you’ll be saying I hated him too

Don’t ever be this guy on a sports message board. You can say this to anyone that ever has an opinion including yourself. And this whole model is fueled by people like you & I giving their opinions.
Furthermore you probably should have used the same logic with the recruiting site guys you were worshipping yesterday. lEt me kNoW wHeN tHeY R cOAChEs
As it pertains to lsu and the state of Louisiana, there are always more RBs & WRs in the state that lsu can take. LSU is generally always fine here, but to pretend like they always get the right guy is bogus

Always playing the woe is me card. You do this to yourself LE. You take ultra contrarian points of view (and you KNOW you do this crap often) that rarely make any sort of sense and go off on extremes like saying Lindsey and Berry arent really RBs, they are athletes, they are scat backs, Simon is an everydown back because he weighs more, etc etc etc

I'm sure like most of your ultra dumb viewpoints like this one that will take years to unfold most people wont ever remember, and you certainly wont unless you're somehow right like you are maybe 5% of the time on these and throw it back in everyone's face like you were some savant Rather than just admit these viewpoints almost never work out for you.

You're the one that is dismissing every recruiting site (And everyone elses opinion for that matter) and going with LE's infamously bad "ExPeRt AnAlYsIs" here. So I brought up Frank's approach to this. He waited around for Simon for a bit, then offered Lindsey and said commit and he committed. Again, why do you think if Simon is so special compared to Berry or Lindsey Frank just de-prioritized him and took Lindsey instead? Surely if he was some cant miss ultra talented RB Frank who knows the state better than you could ever hope to would have kept waiting around for him, no? Tell us your synopsis there on why Frank decided to take Lindsey over Simon instead of waiting for Simon.
Literally what was it a week or two ago you were throwing around some other kid in the state is the best RB in the state this year someone posted in this thread or another? Why do you do this to yourself?

Pick ultra contrarian viewpoint, argue it till you cant anymore, wait years for said thing to unfold.
He will happily tell you when everyone was wrong, you know, like 5% of the time these work out for him. The other 95% of the time, he will gladly dismiss someone bringing up he took this ridiculous stance on this way in the past.

lol. After 7 on 7 a few weeks ago, a few of your recruiting site buddies questioned whether Berry would be better suited at WR.
YOUR recruiting site buddies said that.
But yes I am just being a contrarian

I mean, the post is time stamped, why don’t you go look at it?
Furthermore, you didn’t know JT Lindsey existed before April 9th when he got an lsu offer. Now all of a sudden he’s better than James Simon. Things can change, can’t they?

I have nothing against Harris. I do wonder if he's negative recruiting LSU because he had a bad experience here when the truth is he sucked here and sucked even worse at UNC.

This doesnt mean he cant play RB lester. I'm sure Reggie Bush could have been a helluva WR himself. He was also a pretty good RB if I recall correctly

Sorry, but if you are going to allege I said they can’t play RB, you’re going to have to use my own quotes. Not your made up quotes

"I think this crop of in state RBs have more of an athlete profile then RB." Bottom of page 1. Talking directly about Lindsey and Berry. And obviously go on to say Simon and Sheppard are the best RBs/"pure runners" (

Another thread about Harlem Berry about comps you directly compared him to JaMarr Chase. Here in middle of page 1 Obviously just trying to be a little troll.
It's clear you have zero intention of saying the guy is an elite RB or can even play RB at a high level. You've been on a mission about this the whole time to demote Berry (And Lindsey) and hype up Simon. Because we all know this is the stance you're taking and sticking to until its no longer correct and you'll forever forget you said any of that.

So not one quote where I said he couldn’t play RB.
To think I’d be that stupid to say an athlete of his caliber couldn’t play RB lmao

Goes out of way every time to mention they are athletes, not RBs really, compares Berry to a WR not any RB.
Will never give Berry any credit for being an absolutely lethal RB, always try and downplay him to some other position or "just an athlete".
But yeah, you won this one lester.

I cant imagine being this naive about things in life.

Are you not concerned that Simon doesn’t show a burst on film or rarely runs away from 2a comp? He shows good balance, and seems like a one cut back, but at 190lbs and against that type of comp, one would think he would have more burst and breakaway speed.
Posted on 5/30/24 at 9:16 am to thunderbird1100
There’s nothing to win. If I didn’t think he could play RB, I would just say it.
There are many players on a football field at a given time that can play RB. There aren’t many that can profile at WR or CB like Harlem Berry could
Berry is a legitimate 5 star ATH. Whether he is a 5 star RB or not is another question. But to think a 5 star ATH couldn’t play RB is laughable
