    I'd say about a 65% chance with Randle to LSU, but a little higher than that for Richardson sticking with Bama.

    This is why Bama fans want him so much...and if he indeed does commit to us, Julio may have been a factor.

    If Randle is a freshman sensation like everyone claims he will be, opposite Julio would cause problems for secondarys everywhere, especially with a guy like Maze in the slot.

    I have seen Richardson's highlights and I dont know if I have ever seen a HS back like him. Sure, we have Coffee another year and Ingram is just a TF, but I would love for him to come in and create a load of depth--but that may be our demise.

    He could line up opposite Julio.. but wouldn't lining up with Toliver, Benton, and Lafell.. be slightly more attractive?

    Honest question.

    TheDude I'm calmer than you.

    You mean Toliver, Tolliver, Benton, and Lafell? Not to mention Bell, Calhoun, Dickson, Branch....

    Not really. He and Julio would play exclusively on the outside and it would prevent them from regularly being double teamed. Its not the number of quality WR's on the team that make it attractive, rather the skill level of that one guy on the opposite side of the field.

    If Trent Richardson is gonna stay with Bama why has LSU not offered a scholarship to Christine Michael? Or is it Richardson or no more running backs? Just seems weird to pass on a 5* running back who according to what I read wants to come here. Whats the inside info??

    People in the know are saying Michael is too close to Ford as far as style of RB.

    And of course the numbers.
