    Neal is the perfect size at 6'2" 264 lbs for the OLB. Maybe shed about 5-10 lbs just to increase his quickness. Or he may be moved to ILB now that I think about it and not have to lose any weight.

    Godchaux and Herron are perfect sizes for DE (6'4" and 290 lbs). Thomas and Gilmore can play the nose at 315.

    ILB Beckwith 6'2" 255
    ILB Neal 6'2" 265
    OLB Key 6'6" 230 (needs to get to about 250)
    OLB Bower 6'5" 240 (needs to get to about 255)

    DT Godchaux 6'3" 293
    DT Herron 6'3" 289
    NT Gilmore 6'4" 313

    These DTs we are recruiting this year will be thrust onto the field immediately as we have little depth other than LaCoutoure.

    What is Rashard Lawrence? Would he be an end or a tackle in the 3-4? I'm not sure what his measurables are.

    Rashaan Thornton? He's an OLB for sure and would need to put on a bit of weight.

    Maybe I got his first name wrong, the 5 star Lawrence from up north Louisiana.

    I would think NT at 6'3", 305 lbs, he will put on another 10-15 lbs and play at nearly 320. That would give us 2 NTs in this class and 1 DE. Probably get two DEs in Taylor and Christmas-Giles. That would be an outstanding haul at both D-line and LB.

    LSU will end up with 2 nose tackles (arguably the most important position in any 3-4 defense) in the top 30 players in the entire nation at any position.

    One more update for Tirk, we actually have 5 LBs in this class in the new 3-4 scheme of Aranda.

    No, but from all I'm reading they're really beating the bushes and looking around. Haskins is the one they want, but I think they sign one period. IF not Haskins it will be a diamond in the rough.
