I know Arkansas is not one of his schools listed as "possibles", but...it wouldn't hurt to give him a call now that Petrino is here.  He has 8 SEC schools listed, so apparently he wants to play in the SEC!  What do you think?

It just seems to me like it wouldn't hurt to give him a call and try to get him to come up and take a visit.  Once he's here and sees the facilities, and meets BP, then he might rethink.

Heck yeah, I say give him a call and Burton Scott too. Burton goes to the same high school as Marcal Robinson and he actually has us on his list.

Burton looks like he's a strong commitment for Alabama, but you never know for sure till signing day usually.  He's only 5' 11", but he's got good speed. Who knows, maybe Marcal could talk his high school teammate into being a Hog.  That would be great!

I wouldn't think any of us would agree that a "soft verbal" was a "strong commitment" anymore after the players that have backed out on us. You're right, you never know until signing day.

If he can play DB then give him a call. We're already stocked up on WRs and we're continuing to neglect the defense. I hope we can outscore everyone.

I think it's a little late to be "giving him a call" It's not like oh by the way now that signing day is coming up we'd like to land some elite players. Don't worry about the fact that we haven't recruited you up to this point.

I have no idea. I don't know anything about it. I just click the first server on the list, follow some people around and stare in awe at the pets that look like He-Man's battle cat.

Arkansas Football, it's the players running through the "A", hog hats, it's more than 70,000 fans calling WOO PIG SOOIE. Arkansas football, it's the state of Arkansas banding together behind one team and a mascot like no other. Those select few who put on the jersey are chosen, they wear the colors, they pay the price, and they succeed. They are exceptional, they are Razorbacks. Together we stand as tall as the tower of Old Main. Our memories are etched in stone like names on Senior Walks and our blood flows Razorback Red. For 100 years, we've been Hog Wild and today we continue the tradition. We are Arkansas Razorbacks!

Hehe... I think if we landed a 5 star WR, we could find someone else to play DB.

DeAndre Brown will be signing with LSU on NSD. It's been a pretty much done deal for quite a long time. He just hasn't announced yet. One of his best friends is Richard Dickson (our tight end that caught 2 TD's against Ohio State in the NC game, who is also from Ocean Springs). Richard and DeAndre's mother have said for a long time that DeAndre will be a LSU Tiger.

I was kind of surprised with the 4.62 and the 28 inch vertical.  Pretty underwhelming numbers.

The greatest WR in the history of the game ran a 4.65 40 and had a vertical under 30 inches. Yes, that would be Jerry Rice.

While speed and leaping ability are very important measurables, there are times when the measurables just don't tell the story. There is a reason why LSU, Florida, Florida State, Alabama, Georgia, etc. have recruited this kid hard.

Thats what I thought. How can he be 5 stars with a 40 like that?

Did I really just see a 5 star reciever with a Houston Nutt coached squad on his list of potential destinations?

Did he eat some bad mushrooms or something?

Here are Brown's numbers at the New Orleans Scout Combine:

Height:  6-6.5
Weight:  220
40-Yard Dash:  4.52
Short Shuttle:  4.34
Vertical Jump:  32.6"
3-Cone:  7.50
Broad Jump:  8-9

Here is just a small list of the schools that have offered:

Florida
LSU
Texas Tech 
Tennessee 
Mississippi State
Miami-FL 
Georgia 
Alabama 
Auburn

I think the coaching staff's of these Universities know just a tad bit more about who is a good WR prospect and who isn't compared to the rest of us.

I think what you are missing when you look at his numbers is that he is 6'6. You can train to get faster and improve your vertical but you can't train being real tall. 2 other things more important than speed and vertical are hands and ability to run good routes. Long story short, speed is overrated, especially in the collegiate ranks.

I would bet he would be the best  WR here next year if we could get him. He tore it up in the AL - MS all-star game, all week. This is when he went from a 4 to a 5 star.

You don't have to believe me, it is quite your perogative. I follow LSU recruiting very closely. When a prospect is a not likely to commit to LSU I say it. When everything points to a prospect signing with us, I say that too. A lot of people in Baton Rouge have been saying it has been a done deal for a long time now. Of course, nothing is absolute in the world of recruiting, but all the information out there points toward DeAndre signing with LSU.
