I'll call it right now and I'll eat crow if I have to. But explain to me why a guy who was said to be an NFL LT, didn't even play LT for his high school? He played RT. Also Lashley's footwork during MS/AL All-Star week wasn't exactly 4* worthy. Lashley will get lost in the shuffle at Bama, just like Knott and Davis. Same thing happened with Facine, Rod Woodson, and every other MS guy that has gone to Bama the last few years with the exception of Steen and Justin Woodall. Situation is the same for LSU with Devin Voorhies and will be for Charles.

Now am I mad we lost out on Knott, Lashley, Davis, Charles, and Womack? Yes they would've provided a starter or two in the future. But to hype these kids like this so early is dumb and then when they don't live up to expectations we down them. Just dumb.
