I really hope we snag Julio Jones, WR from Alabama. Ive viewed some of his footage, and this kid is the real deal. He's already 6'4 215 pounds. He's certain to put on at least 10 to 15 more pounds. He's a local Alabama kid, and it would be sweet to steal him from under Saban's nose. He's ranked #2 in the country, and looks like a grown man on the field. Where ever he signs, he will start. It would be sweet to have him catching balls from Perriloux, ESPN reported that we were among his top choices.
You're right. He is the real deal. In the mold of Clayton and Bowe. You could really build a team around this kid. One of the most mature HS kids I've ever seen.
Julio is a very long shot but I will take WR DeAndre Brown in his place. LB Brendan Beal is a Florida lean but we are still in the running with USC.
Julio J would definitely be number 1 if not him its always great to get a kid from Cali RB Darrell Scott.
I learned my lesson with Joe McNight. It's obvious he would be a great fit with Perrilloux. He would post big numbers in two or 3 years with RP and then move to the NFL. At Bama his numbers will be reduced because of no talent around him. Bottom line, he's gonna go where he wants.
I don't want any recruit. That just sounds gay. the two recruits I'd like to see most at LSU are TJ Bryant or Brendan Beal. LSU will be fine with next year's crop of RBs and LSU will be fine with whatever class of WRs that qualify and sign.
I want Bryant, Beal, Brown, Scott, Jones, Patchan, Kuli, Aghayere, Tolliver. our success has a greatly increased our chances with the high profile guys...I see us finishing very strong in recruiting. Last weekend has put us over the top in popularity. From the 7.9 million prime-time viewers, to the Top recruits in the Stadium...we are on the verge of a great class. And the Fact that Gary Crowton has a exciting spread offense, has the top recruits dreaming of excelling at there position for the Tigers. Just getting to play as often as we do on ESPN, CBS...has players excited.
