lache's a little overrated at #2? I don't think he has the build or lateral movement to be up that high. five star, but high teens, low twenties?

You must be scared he's not going to UT

Actually, I've never gotten the hype about him even after watching his film. He looks good but not necessarily 5-star good to me.
He's got plenty of offers, so obviously he's a top player...I just don't get the internet mania about him.

if you've seen the kids highlight tape, you would know he is not overrated. the kid is a work horse on the field. He's a reggie bush type back that you want in space such as on screens and dump offs. Lache is the perfect back for whatg we are trying to do with our spread offense. The athletes are all coming into place here at LSU and we will be a force to reckon with for the next 4 years IMHO. No, he is not the in between tackle runner. but thats what we got Michael Ford for. If Lache comes here, i see him and ford being Thunder and Lightning©. And of course Ridley will be a man amongst boys on the fields.

He's a top 5 talent imo, so no. Just about all the film is from his Soph year, and I don't see anything lacking in lateral movement. He's got speed, explosiveness, and burst better than anyone in this class by a good bit.

There is a poll on the Main Rivals board for the #1 spot...As good as LS is I think many believe Dyer and Lattimore are better...
I'd say he is the #3 RB on the board IMO

Dyer's got an argument, Lattimore is overrated

No not completely...I'm also looking at comments from those not tied to the Arky program and from posts I've seen over the last few months concerning this group.

Seastrunk is a complete beast that would suceed in any offense.

I'll agree that most say LS has got more speed than both of these guys...Dyer and Lattimore are more complete backs IMO

I have to agree with you on that statment. I know it might be the first time we both agree on the same thing. The question out there is, how good is ML really? We know what ML can do with a great team in front of him. The question about MD is will he have 100,000 carries before he gets to college? We know what he can do against Ark. high school competition. The question about LS is what can he do when he gets on a team that will play him correctly? We already know what he can do against the Texas 5A schools with a line in front of him that only had one All District player. LS has more up side than any of the running backs in this class. IMO, Nick Parker is the most complete RB in this class and should be ranked over everyone.

Seastrunk has incredible balance and I don't think he'll struggle after adding on some mass.

I have seen it, like six months ago when they put it on youtube. I don't see any lateral moves comparable to reggie bush - he's straight line speed with decent movement

oh joy. what does this have to do with him being #2 in the country? a 190# gamechanger equal to RR, daquan bowers, JM, andre smith, etc? I disagree.
