Interesting. Development in to 2 other positions didn't work. I guess third times a try but I think an A&M degree would look better.

<<I'd be surprised if LSU had scholarship space to take on a project with a couple years left of eligibility.>>


LSU is desperate for OT, simply LA don't grow them. LSU now has an excellent OL Coach but don't have the talent there.

I get him leaving. He'll never play here. but why not hang out for the bowl game perks? Does he gain anything by announcing now?

He and Jimbo probably have an understanding. Put name in portal now so coaches know you are looking. Jimbo probably will allow him to stay long enough to graduate. Whether he travels and plays in the bowl will probably be at Jimbo's discretion.

It helps with signing day before and comparing numbers as well.

Transfers count towards the 25 limit. For that reason alone I would not anticipate LSU going after him but congrats to him if they do offer him a slot.

Good luck.

I loved watching his dad and was hoping to see Camron turn into a star. I hope he finds the right place for himself.

If hes anything like his dad he'll never play defense

I hope you're right. Seems like the right way to do it.

We want him to graduate and then finish his career where he can play. It builds credibility, that we consider the athletes who dont pan out for us (unless they punk out w/o talking to Jimbo first).

Athletes like that are in a bad position: if he declares, the coach can pull his ship immediately. But if he doesnt declare, he can't let other coaches know he is looking for a landing spot.

And Jimbo goes further. He new that players like Tucker, Paul, and Brian Johnson were not to making it. He shut them down so they could redshirt this year. A lot of coaches wouldnt consider the player. If he could rest a starter from STs, the hell with the attrition candidate.

Jimbo is smart and/or humane enough to consider the athlete's perspective.

They don't have the talent there??? Hmmmm, I don't agree. Looks pretty good.

True dat there.

Can he transfer to basketball? Maybe he inherited some of his dad's clutch shot luck.

Clearly a Mavs fan, since he won titles in Houston and SA. Dude has 7 rings, those weren't lucky shots.

Nope. Spurs fan since I was 6 and Willie Anderson was the best player on team. Still a fan today, even though they suck. I even have a framed picture of the 2005 Game 5 shot in Detroit. I wish that I could get it autographed. It is one of my all time favorite sport pictures.

LA has great talent per capita but not OL.

On the list of 2020 Top Prospects in LA, the 2 highest rated OL are #11 and #52.

LSU has zero OL commits from LA for the coming class & unlikely to get any.
2019 LSU signed 2 OL from LA and a TE they hope to convert to OT.
2018 signed 1 OL from LA.
2017 LSU signed -0- OL from LA.

Only one of LSU's current starting OL is from LA, a 3star late pickup.

LA simply lacks OL talent, consistently.
