LSU's last 5 recruits: a definitive look
Page 2 of 17
  1. that's my guess.
  2. = Lavar Edwards.
  3. An updated prediction list:

    QB - Terrelle Pryor (10 %)
    RB - Derrick Hall (25 %), Aundre Dean (5 %), Jermaine Thomas (5 %), Darrell Scott (1 %)
    WR - DeAngelo Benton (98 %), DeAndre Brown (98 %)
    OL - Antoine McClain (50 %), Brandon Washington (25 %), Greg Shaw (20 %), Ben Jones (10 %)

    DL - Lavar Edwards (100 %), Corey Liuget (50 %), Simi Kuli (30 %), Brandon Thompson (25 %), Kheeston Randall (10 %), Glenn Harbin (10 %), Moses McCray (10 %)
    LB - Mark Barron (15 %), Marcus Robinson (15 %)
    DB - TJ Bryant (40 %), Brandon Harris (25 %), Alonzo Lawrence (15 %)

    Visit Dates:
    Jan 18 - LaVar Edwards, Ben Jones, Brandon Washington
    Jan 25 - Glenn Harbin, Mark Barron, Jermaine Thomas
    Dec 2 - Antoine McClain, Alonzo Lawrence (?), Terrelle Pryor (?), DeAndre Brown (?), Derrick Hall

    Brown and Benton are at 98 percent only because of their qualifying issues. Looks like both will be part of the '08 class in the end. Great news.

    I downgraded Pryor since we have not gotten the confirmation on if we will visit. If he doesn't visit, I put his chance at almost zero. If he visits, I improve our chances to be just about equal to OSU and Michigan (basically a 3 way tie for 1st).

    It's highly doubtful we take any other D-lineman after we get the official from Edwards.

    With McClain coming on board, I think this is a stellar O-line class with Spencer, McClain, Parsons and Hurst headlining the crew. And add Branch as a possible convert to OT, it could be that much better.

    This would give us 28 recruits, which means probably 2 greyshirts.

    If you count the points for Benton, that would put LSU at about 2600 points, which should be good for a top 5 finish. Rivals won't count it, so we'll end up about 7 or 8. Scout should end up in the top 5 regardless.
  4. Just out of curiosity islstl? What do you base your % for these recruits upon? You guessing, or have some data we don't know about?
  5. Yes, inquiring minds want to know.
  6. I mainly use data, writeups, insider info from websites (rivals, scout, espn) and make an educated and well informed guess.

    I pay for rivals, scout and ESPN insider (which gives me access to their recruiting as well).

    Let's just put it this way, a highly respected recruiting guru has his final 5 exactly as I have mine.

    That was comforting to know.

    PS - I have yet to include the Clair/Takkle website info in my prognostication. :eek:
  7. Haha, you wondering about ole TJ, huh?
  8. Ok, well I subscribe to those services as well and don't consider myself an idiot but I was curious where the actual %'s came from, since there is nothing in print to support it. Who knows, maybe you will be right after all.
  9. :grin:

    It's a big weekend out here for recruits. Besides TJ, we've got Joe Adams who is still listed as a verbal but thought to possibly be waivering to Arkansas.
  10. Nice post, I am glad you brought this back from the old server.

    Above are some of my predictions.
