'18 GA LB JJ Peterson (Tennessee signee)

When was the last time we landed a LB this highly rated? Or better question when was the last LB this highly rated not a bust (Bates, Chris Donald, etc)? Rico McCoy?

Now that I really think about it...man our LB recruiting has been BAD for a long time.

The LB recruiting over the last several years has been puzzling to say the least. I know countless times in RF during the BJ era we spent most the time scratching our heads on why we weren't recruiting more LB's. It seemed as if they were trying to get recruits that they could try to turn into LB's but not recruiting true LB's. No doubt you can certain Ath's and put them at LB just not sure why we stopped getting more AL Wilson's type LB's.

I kinda get the feeling CJP and Coach Sherrer know a thing or two about what a LB looks like, don’t you? I think that starts with Peterson. Huge get if it happens.

Yes! Finally coaches that get it. Can't wait to get back to some big bruising LB's again and JJ would be great start!

Previous staff switched soooo many player's high school positions. Off the top of my head: Brooks (te), Byrd (db), jakob (lb), abernathy (cb not safety), mosley (d-line), jumper (just being on the field 90%, idc about other players being injured)
 
I wish Evan Berry was going to be back next year. Would the coaches have moved him to offense?

Al Wilson was a safety in high school I believe.
