‘23 JUCO LB Justin Jefferson (Alabama commit)

[Orange.]

Hate we were late for a Memphis kid. Good luck to him.

Not a fan of catty remarks about our staff.
Edit: I doubt it comes down to bammer offering 6 days before us on a kid playing JUCO in south Sip. That would be bizarre.
Edit: See also #105

Plenty of hotbeds for players. Memphis is one.

I see now that you were responding to a catty snark about our staff.

LSU always haz all the Jeffersons. Every call is: French name, French name, Jefferson, French name. I almost made the joke the day his thread surfaced. Let's break the trend!

I think we had a Jefferson kid from California here as a running back when Majors was coaching.

Really wish we could have landed Darnell Jefferson. He was pretty good for ESU once he got with The Program.

Meh....

He was just a gang banger wit speed

This. Would rather have our pick of kids from a 15 mile radius of North Fulton or Gwinnett then all of Memphis and the surrounding areas.

I like being able to take players from Memphis. Don't need the city of Memphis necessarily but something Pruitt did do well was target Memphis and I hope Heupel does the same for players good enough to be here. Briarcrest had Kennedy Chandler, Omari Thomas, and Jabari Small here this year. We are talking to a 2024 PG from Briarcrest and Max Carroll was very interested in us until he wasn't a take

Yeah it would be silly to write off Memphis like Butch did. We’ve been as or more successful there than in the midstate or even E Tennessee. At least there isn’t POS Buck and NPA there.

Do you think we may circle back to Carroll now that there isn’t a signing limit?

Really hope we do. I think he could be a solid LB eventually. He plays very physical and has the frame to at least be a decent backup by his 2nd or 3rd year on campus

No, but the troll loves it.

I think he could develop into a very good TE in this offense. Kid is athletic too.

No. He just announced a top 5 as well and that's who he is focusing on. I think he is either a LB, RB, or TE. I don't see the WR or S upside. He's pretty slow IMO. I don't know what other schools are recruiting him as but I know Vandy is recruiting him as a TE and are pushing for him now after they changed assistant coaches somewhere

With the amount of LBs we’ve whiffed on and the 25 signee limit being pulled why haven’t we offered him at LB?

He's slow

Memphis is about as much Tennessee as Moscow.

Not sure if most of us are aware that there's a Moscow, TN just outside of Memphis. I'm not sure which Moscow you're referring to. Yes. I AM fun at parties, why you ask?

No surprise given our LB development compared to Bamas.

Not really a fair comparison. No one has had better LB play over the past decade than Bama. We've been a revolving door of head coaches.

That’s kind of my point.
