Butch Jones is around 5'10. Maybe. I'd honestly believe someone if they said he was 5'8". I've seen pics of him with with Pig (look below) where they are almost eye level. To say Amadi is 5'10" or 180 lbs is a stretch. It's how sites report things. Emmanuel Moseley was listed as 160 on sites and when he got to campus he was magically 140. Did he lose 20 lbs or just never have it? Btw it's not personal against you or saying Ugo won't be good, just saying that what you're saying above doesn't seen that off, just not completely accurate size and weight size IMO. He does look like a college DB, height/weight on paper isn't everything. Some really good 5'10">>> CBs. Maybe I'm off on all this, but JMO

Amadi probably is not 5"10 but he might be close to 170-180 range.... He is pretty stout. He is not a limb like EMAN

It's amazing how much Moseley's body has changed in just one season.

I think his size or lack thereof is being a tad overblown. The average NFL CB is 5'11 193 lbs. Amadi is 5'10 180 as a HS senior. He's exteremly strong for his size and also has a pretty good bounce in his jump.

I think they are being kind on the 5'10, but I dont care I think the kid can play and more importantly I dont think he cares how tall he is, when I saw him play he wasnt afraid to stick his nose in a play

You are correct on all accounts. :good!:

Yeah my point wasn't he's Moseley skinny, dude looks pretty well built. Just judging off photos id say he's probably 5'9" 170. Just a guess though. I like Amadi a good bit, tbh he reminds me of a better overall Devaun Swafford. More of a nickel/S than an outside CB.

the only reason they take Amadi is to get Phillips. They are getting low/weak at DE for the first time in a while.

Disagree with the first part, agree in principle to the second part. CB is the second need, the status of Robinson is cloudy, either way you figure Robinson and White are done after next year. Jalen Collins declaring opens up basically a starting CB position and backups to both.

DE, one spot is open and it is looking like Hunter might be back, back-ups its basically a free for all with Bower as a possible starter. DE is really for the picking for a freshman to come in and make a splash.

Amadi has camped at LSU and has had an offer for some time.

Ideally, if quality is there LSU needs 4-6 CB/Ss and 3-4 DEs in this class.

This. Plus, he is a Tennessee kid.

He is about as small as I would want to go, he seems about the same size as Tre'Davious White. White knows all the tricks (holds, pulls, grabs, harasses, etc.) against the bigger WRs but I wouldn't want all the DBs that size... you need some bigger DBs in today's game.

This was more my point. These services guess and are friendly on size. Also if you ask the kid or his coach they likely won't be honest either.

If True, it might not have been LSU funding the billboard, but rather a local LSU alum with money. Have been hearing for while now (from a reliable source) about the influence of this guy; can't give the name...was not given to me.

Is it possible that Ugo and Kyle are just trolling Tennesse to get some hype and intrigue around their anouncements? Ugo still hasn't actually set up his official visit to lsu yet. Just something I've noticed

I wouldn't call it trolling, but yes. I think they just want it to be a surprise and both will be Vols. JMO

I guess that is possible, but not sure why? Really don't have a dog in the race. Not emotionally invested; Bama doing the board would be different story.

He was saying it because we put up a billboard up in Nashville with all the mid-state recruits on it and some are scared that LSU is about to take some talent from that area.
