Looks like he’s headed to Ohio State.

He is a stiff, linear route runner. He was great at tracking and high pointing balls but you can’t bully SEC guys and win like that, not at his size. You have to have more in the bag

Letting young, high level talent like this leave does not help when you want to “lock down the state”

He should have been. He was one of the top-rated tackle prospects coming out of high school. Doesn’t take a genius to figure that one out.

That would be a nice retort if there were actually any facts involved in his statement, but you being high on Lance Heard is just an opinion and not a cold-hard fact.

You hate to lose 4 star freshmen from LA before they ever even take a snap.

Yeah, he looked a little tight at WR on film but I still didn't want him going anywhere

They are recruiting college-ready WRs to fill the room immediately. There was no path to playing time for him

Never thought he would be a No.1 WR but he does have some dang in him.Hes young n tough. All the receivers they usually keep just thought he would stick

I will say this again. Lane is going to be like Jay Johnson. First and 2nd year guys need to be ready to ball out against SEC competition now or he isn't interested. That is how he rolls and it has served him well.

This and every coach that recruited him is gone. The kid is going to land at big program with what he thinks is a better path to play.

Yeah definitely sucks to lose a guy that hadn’t played a fricking down. Big pussys tonight.
