RB Deon Wallace

[studentfan]

It's great to see us sign a 3 star back like that. He'll really help the program out and will be in the mix next year.

For those of you who have seen film on Mr. Wallace, do ya'll think that on February 2nd he turns into the best back we have on the roster? Is this guy going to contribute/start as a true freshman? The class of '05 has the potential of being a special one.

Max Emfinger has Wallace as a 4.5 star RB with offers from Colorado, Kansas State, Baylor, Texas Tech and ULL

I see Wallace being a huge part of the offense net year. The misdirection plays that bustle likes to run will fit his style very well.

This is a HUGE catch for the Cajuns. Now we need some of that beef up front on both sides of the ball.

That isnt a problem, check out this article I found,

http://kansasstate.scout.com/2/327960.html

notice the quote "Wallace has already taken the SAT and is qualified and says he is working on his speed right now running consistently in the 4.4 range." AKA, we have ourselves a legit blue chip non-prop.

Yes you are correct sir, I did some snooping of my own and found out his latest semester grade point average was a 3.0 and his overall highschool cum was a 2.75, I think we got one of those big fishes that you just hear stories about. I am so extatic. I know there is alot of hype but this guy seems like he is gonna be all world.

HOw many of ya'll believe that Jamario Thomas's success this last year was a big reason for Deon coming to UL?

[studentfan]

I'm sure it played a factor somewhat, also the fact that we haven't had a 1000 yard rusher in a long time. If he could quickly learn this offense he could be playing this coming season, but that's my opinion. I really think he'll help this program out also by luring in some O-Linemen from Texas.

It will be even better if we can get the blockers for him. If we get bigger and better up front his full potential will be realized. We already have one committment from an O-Line, a few more juco's and HS players and we'll be ready to go next year.
