Robert Nkemdiche favors LSU

  • Barrett Sallee ?@BarrettSallee Robert Nkemdiche clearly favors LSU and is concerned about playing Jack LB in a 3-4

    I know it's Bleacher Report but watch the video and listen to what he says.

    Bama fans SHOULD be worried bc he wants to be a DE in a 4-3

    He was also quoted saying LSU was the leader a month or 2 ago.

    B/R Full Ride: One-on-One with the Nation's Top Prospect Robert Nkemdiche | Bleacher Report

    There's no shortage of hype surrounding Grayson (Ga.) High School defensive end Robert Nkemdiche . The 6'4, 268-pounder is the consensus No. 1 overall recruit in the Class of 2013...

  • Don't blame him, he fits the prototypical DE size.

    He's being told wrong because he would be just as well off at 3-4 Jack as 4-3 DE.

  • Hell he may very well. I don't believe anything that I read off of Bleacher Report but it wouldn't shock me. Not sure why 247 and every other site I've read has Bama as the frontrunner if he named LSU his leader two months ago though unless he's changed his mind since then already.

    He gave the comparison that he would be a DE in LSU's scheme and guys like Mingo/Montgomery will be first rounders.

    He said he would be like Courtney Upshaw in the 3-4 and it might affect his draft stock.. The dude doesn't want to be a dude that has to hold a block on the line for a LBer to make the tackle, nor does he want to be an OLBer.

    We'll see but it's a very, very close recruitment.

    It's a video of RN speaking.. It's not some article. Straight out of his mouth.

    It will be an interesting battle, that's for damn sure.

    I didn't watch the video but I wouldn't be surprised. This battle is going to go on for a while and probably won't settle out until mid-January if not signing day.

    I'm sure neither team will be upset about their classes whomever gets him.

    Courtney's draft stock was not affected by playing in a 3-4, but because of size.

    Can you blame him?

    Coaches are supposed to tell players why they fit in their system best.

    Wasn't a knock at Les. Can't blame him at all. Just saying because he says something, that doesn't make it true.

    RN isn't like most recruits.. He has a very good head on his shoulders, comes from a good family and he's very intelligent.

    Someone can be intelligent and still be ignorant on a topic or situation: like why Courtney Upshaw fell in the draft.

    True but he does have a point. He will have a better shot at being drafted higher as a DE in a 4-3 ala Mario Williams.

    I'm sure you won't agree with me but whatever.

    Nice pick up. Should be a good one.

    Should be? Kid is one of the best prospects in a long time. He has almost unlimited potential, but also has a very high floor. At the very least he will be 2nd team whatever conference he chooses.

    No joke.

    I try and act like losing this one wouldn't sting but I really thought that we would be hard to beat for his signature. It's nowhere near over BUT I would be seriously upset if we didn't get him. I can always fall back on getting Collins but this one would still sting.

    The Freak, Nkemdiche and Rasco would be awesome considering we lose Mingo and Montgomery after this season.
