'14 IL LB Clifton Garrett

[ajvol01]

It wouldn't hurt my feelings if we landed this kid---he's elite and would put an exclamation point on our linebacker corps for 2014. MouMou, D-Bates, Bryant, Weatherd, Dews---embarrassment of riches and we'd be good to go at LB for the next few years. You could move one or two of those guys to safety or DE.

Dews might be good at DE. His film looks good

 

[TruVolGritt]

This is the kid I want most, he will make this the sickest LB corps in the country.

Please Butch pull this kid.

Pretty sweet indeed. But I think Gaulden will be a CB before a NB. Payne's size and quickness are almost ideal for a NB. With the LBs we are bringing and could bring in (Garrett), we may need to switch back to a 3-4.

Lol jk on the last part.

I have no idea why he's wanting the smaller guy outside with the bigger more physical dude on the inside. :crazy: but he's consistent

I also don't think Mouhon is better than Bryant. Boy is an attitude adjuster at LB.

Luckily, we have both!

 

[TriCitiesVol]

If we pull Garrett, it will be real hard to keep him off the field as a Frosh.

I think Weatherd will be very helpful as an EE. I want sideline to sideline LBs. CJ Mosley, Minter, and Ogletree kind of hitters.

I think we already have the best LB crew in the country committed.... landing Clifton would make it nothing short of historic.

What makes a national championship team is not the just the starting lineup. It's the quality depth behind it. Stack that talent 2-3 deep at each position, then we're talking championship football.

And then the first time one of them missed a tackle as a true freshman alot of y'all would be calling them a bust, terrible, slow, etc. every yr ppl in here talk about how amazing the new freshman are only to be disappointed in the end bc they are exactly that..... Freshman.

 

[volswillrise12]

Yes, we would. Beaten wife syndrome very strong. Anyway, I want Clifton Garrett in Orange...Butch is recruiting him so there's no reason to believe it can't happen!

That Nkemdiche kid's doing pretty well in Oxford this year.

Kids these days are coming out of HS more and more ready to play at the next level, and truly elite talent will be a real difference maker on the field. I fully expect Jalen Hurd to be an immediate impact player when he gets to UT, and Garrett would most definitely be one as well.

Garret is going to the Georgia game. Unless we pull out a miracle, I doubt he walks away impressed enough to want to commit.

He may be factoring in early playing time and defensive scheme, as well as fan interaction.

There is no way Butch can pull a top 5 recruiting class with our on field talent we now have. Oh wait, maybe he is selling a vision and foundation for the future. Unbelievable...

You have no idea what an OV is about

 

[The Breakerboy]

You have no idea what an OV is about

At all....... nor is he looking at the current class.

 

[onevol74]

If on the field performance is important then why would he want to go to LSU and play for the mustang package that gives up the winning score on the last drive of the game?
They are still 4th & Chavis. He gave it away to UGA last week.

The only thing LSU has over UT is their gumbo to our peanut butter.

This year's D is in the NFL, nice try though.

Pump the breaks there, buddy.

If they develop as well as we think they can, it will easily be the best D we will have fielded since 2008.

Because you say so? lol:
