LSU offered Class of 2017 Dylan Moses

LSU offered a kid this week who just finished the 7th grade. Whoa Les.

sooner or later there will be regulations around this. Since it is not committable they should just change the name. Rename it from an "offer" to a "statement of interest" or something suitably boring.

Just Finished 7th Grade?

" He stands 6'0, weighs 218 pounds ... and reportedly ran a sub-4.5 40-yard dash." - from the article

I am almost three times this kid's age, and am shorter and weight less. Yikes. Still, making an offer to someone who has yet to play high school ball seems more than a little bizarre to me. Does Les really think that he needs to think that far ahead?

It at first appears as though

It at first appears as though it's a stupid move, but when you really think about it, it's kinda smart. The kid is probably not even 14, weighs 218 pounds, and runs a 4.5 40. The chances of this kid becoming a very good prospect, if not elite, are very high. He's probably a kid you'll wish you hope to have a good relationship years down the road. This offer virtually guarantees that he'll be watching LSU football and keeping tabs on it for the next while. Best case scenario, this kid ends up being a top prospect and his ties to LSU help to land him. Worst case, the kid turns out to be nothing special and LSU stops having contact with him.

I can see plenty worse

Kid verbally commits and Miles gets egg on the face when he revokes it. Or his star falls and he takes up a roster spot. Actually then they will just grey shirt him and the egg on the face doesn't matter anyways.

Wow

He would, providing he plays a 4th year, be in the class of 2021. And how can he be projected at any position right now? The kid could grow to 7' in the next 5(!) years

The reason that LSU offered Dylan Moses

He checked in at 6 foot; 205 lbs; he actually ran a 4.46 forty yd dash; his vertical was 34 inches; his broad jump was 9 feet 3 inches; during 7on 7 drills he defended some of the best receivers in the region...

My guess on the boy is he's

My guess on the boy is he's been held back a grade somewhere along the line. Most likely he is 14 already.

I've coached middle school

Football. I've seen plenty of 6' 8th graders and 200 pounders most of which are fat lineman. What separate this kid is his speed if it's truly what it's reported. 4.5 fortys in 8th grade is very rare.



Basically he has matured faster than everyone in his age group. And he's been given extreme god given size, speed, and ability.
