Appears the consensus is he won’t end up in this class. He is taking an OV to LSU this weekend. Speed demon, but we are fine with or without him and can definitely upgrade. I’d love for us to snag McFarland to replace him but I realize that’s a battle.

“I agree with Zach's assessment that Stevens is unlikely to end up at Miami. I haven't put him in either of my two Mock Classes this cycle.”

George McDonald are spearheading the Tigers' pursuit of the longtime Miami pledge. LSU's history of churning out some of the best receivers in the sport is appealing to Stevens.
"They are one of the best Wide-Receiver-U's. They always produce some of the best receivers," Stevens said. "For example,
Ja'Marr Chase,
Justin Jefferson -- the list keeps going on. They're definitely in the top category and they're in the SEC. Being able to play in the SEC conference, that's just big, really."
Stevens begins an official visit to LSU on Wednesday with the trip lasting into Friday. He wants to get an idea for how quickly he could see the field in Baton Rouge.
"I'm just looking for if I'm the number one prospect, [to] feel like a guy that came come in there and play first year and be one of them guys they depend on -- like a
Malachi Toney situation," he said. "At Miami or LSU, that's what I'm looking for."
