Pratt/Ford will be another Scott/KW, imo

I'd look for someone currently on roster to move to LB, most likely trindon

if they don't blow him up to 260 he is a simple combination of size, lateral moves, and speed...thats all

depth. I don't get why lots of people seem to think LSU needs only 1 RB per class to be a RB and the other a LB.

oh, and the trindon comment was a joke, obviously

Why not use a 190 lb back with better speed and moves? I'm not saying he's not a good player, because he is. All I'm saying is I don't see how he will get time at RB at LSU.

Ford is a bruiser. His speed isn't his strongsuit.

we need usable speed on the team for sure, not just running fast sideways

Which is where Lache comes in next year...

I think he could be an All SEC/AA type linebacker. I just think he'd be another good player to see little time unless other guys get hurt or transfer.

Trindon could be a speed rushing DT. He could be around the edge faster than a speed rushing DE.
