Spencer Ware may be up there as well. The RB class coming out next year is going to be strong.

He might not even be a starter next year. Plus, they share the plays alot between a stable of RB's. Cant prove himself that much if he gets a small percentage of snaps. So he probably will be around his whole 4 years.

Luke Kuechly from BC is entering the draft. Must figure 900 tackles is enough at the college level.

Better future in the NFL or MLB? I don't even know if he still does play baseball. I knew he signed with LSU because they were going to let him play baseball and football.

He doesnt even play baseball at LSU. I believe he went there to do both but doesnt now (dont know if he ever was on the team). I wasnt impressed with his baseball stats in hs, so I dont know why people thought he was a superstar baseball player.

Just looked it up. Played in 21 games out of 56 last year, started 10, batted .170. Not on roster this year though.

Yeah. Batting .170 in any professional setting will get you sent down a level. Doing it in college probably would get you off the team...especially when you're a scholarship athlete in another sport, so the staff has no clue if you'll have the commitment to improve because of what you're doing in that sport.

All American and #1 TE prospect Dwayne Allen out of Clemson is declaring. Andre Ellington (projected 3rd round) expected to stay in school.

Wow. A LITTLE surprised by this. I mean, Page is a helluva talent, but how high is he really going to go? I can not see him going as high as Randy Moss, but he certainly is no worse than a 3rd Rd talent. MAYBE he squeaks into the 2nd. Idk.

I'm a LOT suprised--here's an article about it

http://www.toledoblade.com/UT/2012/01/12/Page-to-enter-NFL-draft.html
According to the source, the NFL draft advisory board informed Page he likely would be chosen between the third and fifth rounds of April's draft if he opted to turn pro.

I don't see coming back for a year changing his draft position though. I think he'll catch on as a good slot guy in the NFL.

I too was very surprised that Page had decided to declare. Everyone here seemed to think that he was going to come back. I think he'll do just fine as a slot receiver but that doesn't really lend itself to a high draft slot.

Yes, Claiborne, R Shep, Brockers, and now Reuben Randle have entered the draft early. Yikes. And plus LSU has lost 2 commits. The sky is falling.

Sorry, but LSU isnt one of the big over-recruiters and plus they have fewer scholarships because of a violation
