LamarFanatic Posted October 23, 2010 Report Posted October 23, 2010 well if its true we are not going to go 7 games without a rushing touchdown

HardHitter Posted October 23, 2010 Report Posted October 23, 2010 If they would give the ball to logan or hussey inside the 5 we would have already scored a rushing td.....Well at least Hall can solve all our rushing problems single handly..... ;)

Hall will have to score from our end of the field and will probably only get 10-12 carries knowing how our play calling is.
hipster Posted October 23, 2010 Report Posted October 23, 2010 Lets hope he is half as good as he thinks he is. He has done anything in college yet
TopDawG52 Posted October 23, 2010 Report Posted October 23, 2010 from a good source of mine Jeremy Johnson will attend Lamar

BearWolf Posted October 23, 2010 Report Posted October 23, 2010 Getting JJ will only attract top HS Senior recruits to LU. I hope it works out this way.
Lazeek Posted October 23, 2010 Report Posted October 23, 2010 So speculation has it that Hall and JJ will be wearing a Cardinal uniform next year...............To quote Lloyd Christmas from Dumb and Dumber.............."so your telling me there is a chance......YEAH"!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

It will help recruiting and the addition of Hall will give the offense a true dual threat. All of which will make us better.

coachacola Posted October 23, 2010 Author Report Posted October 23, 2010 Here's a couple of old recruiting sites listing Derrick Hall running both 4.3 and 4.4:http://texasbluechips.com/2008.htmlhttp://www.maxemfingerrecruiting.com/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=285&Itemid=2This was back when he was still in high school. No matter what he runs now he will be a big boost to Lamar's offense the next two years.

ThrillHill80LHS Posted October 23, 2010 Report Posted October 23, 2010 I hope both of them enroll at Lamar, but first things first, let's not make all-americans out of them just yet, they both need to be excepted and enrolled. I just don't know how you can stay out of school for months at a time and then become eligible. They won't be able to transfer any hours because, as far as i know they haven't earned any. There's something up with the Hall kid, he signed w/ A&M and couldn't get in, so he transferred to Navarro stayed 2 yrs transferred to Tulsa, now he can't hack it i guess?? Just might be some reason for concearn with him. JMO

And Derrick had to have at least 24 hours of credit to even take the field his sophomore year.. So Frog does have transferrable classes.

Alpha Wolf Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 Good pickup if we can get Hall and JJ. But do we know who else Lamar has on the radar to bring in this recruiting class or is it to early for that? Sure would be nice if he could convince #1 up in Kirbyville to play here next year...
AggiesAreWe Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 JJ is still at WVU attending class. He will finish the fall semester with 12 hours credit.
Bucof2010 Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 I really really really don't think JJ is going to Lamar...I've been wrong that one time back in '79 though.
