UT / LSU Recruits

[JWVol]

With Saban now out of the picture at LSU, does anyone have a list of top level recruits that we were in competition with LSU to get? I noticed a mention of a couple of OL prospects from another post but did not know if there were others.

Kevin Myers
Ranking: **** (number 11 junior college prospect in the country)
Position: Offensive Tackle
Height: 6' 6"
Weight: 360 pounds
40-yard dash: 5 seconds
Hometown: Compton, CA
School: Compton Community College

Schools
LSU
California
NC State
Oklahoma State
Oregon
San Diego St.
Tennessee
UNLV

Some in-depth info on the only guy considering both LSU and Tennessee. Although this may be after the LSU recruits left; Their recruiting class is basically ruined because Saban left.

Oh, and I kind of doubt that he will go to Tennessee in LSU's stead. LSU was to become a national powerhouse, but now that their recruiting class is gone, I believe he may go to Cal.

Prolly help us with Chris Scott (OL-GA), McNeil (OL-MS), Pegues (DB-MS) and McCoy (LB-?). McNeil and Scott would be HUGE schollies for us. We need some MEAT.

There's no doubt in my mind that Saban leaving will make kids look other places than LSU.

I'd like to see UT pick up at least a couple of these OL prospects. I like our chances given our OL contributions to the NFL. What about DB's?? Are we in the hunt for any blue chip prospects? I am slacking a little in keeping up with our recruiting this year.

I think we could at least use one five star recruit. What are you doing, Phil?

 

[BWeller18]

one five star doesn't make a recruiting class great.
