How many OL do the coaches want? That's 3. Add Ward maybe. Hopefully he sticks. Derek Lewis doin work at his Old high school.

From the offers out it looks like they will take 5 maybe even 6. It looks like they want a center and another tackle.

While I dont think we will get him remember Paul is friends and teammates with the best high school running back since Adrian Peterson Leonard Fournette

Method to our madness, apparently

TiGator · 03-19-2013, 10:29 PM

Has LSU offered? Any insight on if that would change things?

**RepubliGator84** · 03-19-2013, 10:39 PM

That was fast. Great work Coach Lewis for the help on his recruitment.

Always great to pluck a recruit away from Lousiana

Dont think they will offer and dont think it will change things.

619 Gator???????????

Hopefully he sticks...

You WIMP!!!!!!

I think some of our rival defensive linemen will have to get use to eating pancakes when they go up against this dude.

Knox is going to be a beast OT if he puts in the work.

I'd say 6. I think numbers-wise, it's alot easier to fit 5.. but we need inside guys. I say we land 1-2 OT's and the rest are inside. No JUCO's for the OLine this year, imho.

"If LSU offered, that wouldn't change my mind," Paul said. "My father taught me to be a man of my word and to stick to my word and that's what I'm going to do. I gave Florida my word and that's where I'm going to go."

Big Kid, so guess he plays OG for us. Add Ward and we have a good group of OL coming in.Think we end up with 5 so off to a great start.

PSGator66 · 03-20-2013, 08:36 AM

Sounds like a great pick up!

**lurkingator1** · 03-20-2013, 08:46 AM

We want to take two more which is great to be saying in March !Ward and a center Garret Brumfield another Louisianna Kid is at the top of our board .. Go Gators

DieAGator · 03-20-2013, 08:57 AM

Is JPaul OG or Tackle? I really hope they like their guys so far since it's early and a lot can happen on the field now to next NSD. Seems like we still need the elite OT more than another OG.

**grayg8rstevo** · 03-20-2013, 09:03 AM

Guard...and dont bet we won't take a jc tackle. work is being done there. Good work coach Lewis and BOOM.

**gator1986** · 03-20-2013, 09:11 AM

Nice!

**gator1986** · 03-20-2013, 09:16 AM

Has rivals not rated everyone yet? How is a 6'4 340 pound lineman not even a 3 star? I don't know it doesn't matter, but you would think being that size he would be ranked somewhat.
