    Is it more likely that they get offered a scholly later down the road if they play lights out?

    I don't think Fleming will be at LSU, and I don't think Jenkins will greyshirt. Jenkins is a dam good player.

    I wouldn't think so. Look at it like this though...they have a better chance of standing out, since they get more practice time. But if a regular walk on comes in and shows out/is clearly the better player, I'd say he'd have the better chance.

    Who has any info on the grayshirt from last year that is counting toward this years scholarship total (fortham?)? Is he a good, outstanding or average player? What position does he play?

    Correct. Jenkins is a 4 star recruit and will be on scholarship.

    Jenkins is not a walk on or greyshirt guy, he might see alot of time next season.

    Its the guy from Barbe as a walk on. Grey shirts could be Hill, Fleming, and Thomas.

    :geaux: Fordham was a 3 - star from Duluth, Ga. who was recruited as a TE or OL out of High School. Was projected to be an OL/C at LSU. Read in either the Advocate or Picayune today that he's about 6-3, 261. Should be a good C when he bulks up some more. Maybe someone else has some more recent info. Bhelm?? :LSU231:

    True

    No. I don't think either will ever grace the roster in any way.
