Projected FCS Players going to NFL Combine

[smallcollegefbfan]

I know the coaches very well and they thought he would get one. They were right with our past players who attended the Combine.

As for being "dismissed" for failing tests, that is simply not true, considering he was on the President's List during the fall semester (3.5 or higher). He was never ineligible academically at LSU. They 100% tried to get him to stay. You have bad information. As for his effort level during games, I won't argue what is observable on tape, that's for you to judge for yourself. But I've been around the kid and know what our coaches think about him. Now Sione??? He's a different kid.

Both kids are known smokers from their day at LSU. I know the coaches liked him as a player but he gives awful effort much of the time. They are hyping the talent and not considering the way he plays. I could show you plays on tape that are a complete joke because he does not even try. I remember the first game I watched he literally did not finish one block and only got his hands on people when they were coming right at him. If the play was run outside he literally gave zero effort to reach block and never went to the second level. He was frustrating to watch because he has good feet, he can move, and he is strong. He just doesn't display it very much because the effort is not there.
