    Colston comes to mind because at 6'4" he plays every bit of his 6'4" frame, making it a matchup issue for shorter DBs, as he high points the ball as well as anyone.

    I don't think we're looking at a physical beast like Calvin Johnson here, but still at 6'6" I see fade patterns into the corner of the endzone being ultimately tough to defend.

    One thing LSU has not had in a while is a tall receiver (Tolliver didn't really pan out as we had hoped, although that may have more to do with our QB issues at the time).

    We had a couple of shorties this year, although once again these two were so awesome at high pointing the ball and catching in traffic that they played much taller.

    My worry with getting this kid is how it would affect Dupre. Dupre is that tall elite level receiver (6'3") we are craving and is a must get, much moreso than a Noil.

    Dupre and Nacho outside Quinn in the slot not much different as Dupre and Quinn outside Speedy in the slot.

    I like Quinn in the slot as well, although asignupe has reservations about that and sees him as a wideout instead.

    "Nacho" announcing today at the AAA bowl. I'm thinking LSU! Yes I am. LSU started going really hard after him a couple of weeks ago, so is this telling us something about Dupre?

    A&M made some hay with Mike Evans last year. I think he's 6'5"

    I expect him to announce A&M today. Not to say it ends there, however.
