LSU Notes from the Opening

  • -Though he may project best as a defensive end, Kendall Beckwith had his moments in space at linebacker on Saturday.

    #2 CB- Artie Burns- Burns continued to impress on Saturday. He has excellent recovery speed (he ran in the 4.5-second range on Friday) and he used it to break up numerous passes. Miami (Fla.), LSU, Florida State, Louisville and others are in the mix for the former Alabama commit and Top247 prospect.

    #3 WR- Ricky Seals-Jones- After struggling Friday, Seals-Jones turned in a terrific Saturday at receiver. His ability to push through the ground at 230 pounds immediately catches your eye. When the ball is in the air in a high point situation, he comes down with it every time. He also caught a skinny post and ran away from a pair of defensive backs for a 40-plus yard touchdown. While he could project to either side of the ball at the next level, he continues to prefer offense. Seals-Jones is expected to end up at LSU, Texas A&M or Texas. He once was committed to the Longhorns.

    -LSU commit Jeryl Brazil has played cornerback for most of the event, but had a highlight reel touchdown reception on an over-the-top deep ball along the right sideline during a game and followed it up with a game-winning 2-point conversion reception. One of the fastest players in the country, Brazil has shown playmaking ability on both sides.

    #1 DL Eddie Vanderdoes – Vanderdoes has already showed great quickness and athleticism as a pass rusher in one-on-one drills but when the pads were donned, he was powerful and explosive defeating double teams and knocking back offensive linemen in the run game as well. His efforts have his stock as high as any defensive lineman in the country.

    Pass Rush 1 on 1s
    2. Frank Herron – Herron is still extremely raw and he doesn’t have much of an arsenal as far as pass rushing moves but he finds a way to get to the quarterback and he Herron was better with the pads than he was without him. An LSU commit, Herron is just a high-motor, high-intensity defender that is still learning the position.
    4. Eddie Vanderdoes – We only saw Vanderdoes take one rep during the pass rush 1on1s but it was a memorable one. In a split-second, Vanderdoes exploded off the ball and put the offensive lineman on his back at the quarterback’s feet.

    Like usual our LSU guys are showing well at the camp

  • GW...Ive followed the Opening somewhat. Do you think Brazil has done enough to bolster his ranking at all?

    I think he might get a slight bump. He did well at the combine and his speed really impressed everyone.

    He also did well in 7on7 play. I watched his game last night on ESPNU and his coverage was weak at times but he also made some good plays. I think he broke up two passes and had the game winning catch.

    He is recruiting for us though. Whenever he was on TV, he was throwing up the L's and shouting LSU.

  • Barton Simmons ‏@bartonsimmons
    Though I already liked Frank Herron before. I'm still surprised at how well he's played at #TheOpening

    I think he might crack the Top 100 in the next update

  • Yeah Herron is going to be a beast. A lot of our players are going to get significant upgrades in the ratings I believe
