Wants to play WR? That cope? If he doesn’t want to be a TE and commit to putting the real weight on to be one, I’d pass too tbh

Well we're recruiting him as a TE. No reason he can't be a Mallory type, who got better over time at inline stuff but was never a good blocker. I doubt Mario would go for a pure split end unless he were as elite as Greg Olsen.

Yea i'd take him in the class with hopes of developing him into a Elijah Arroyo type in 2-3 years.
Meaning up to about 6'4 1/2 245 by his jr year. He can play even at 225 here as a younging though out of the slot.

Im hoping its him, Heze Kent, and one out of Zach Turner/Lincoln Watkins.

That would be an incredible haul. This kid might be the most athletic TE I've seen us recruit.

--- The more feedback I get on 4-star TE Israel Briggs, who visited last weekend, leads to me believe he won't end up in this class. He's very light in the pants, looks more like a receiver and wants to play receiver. I don't see all those things lining up with what LSU needs combined with the WR board.

new Caleb Odom variant?
 
I am in agreement with LSU. If you want him as a WR, by all means, sign him. He isn't, nor will he be a TE.
 
@DMoney in the June 13, 2025 Bank

Two names that the staff would love to close on- TE Israel Briggs (Visalia, CA) and Tennessee commit WR Tyran Evans (Charlotte, NC). Briggs just visited LSU but I like Miami's chances to get it done. They believe he is one of the most athletic players in America.​

Thread 'The Bank (6/13)'


Miami has another big visit weekend set up as it continues to push for a top 5 class. Here is the latest I am hearing:

- The Canes are being aggressive in prioritizing top local talent. WR Calvin Russell (Northwestern) visits this weekend and is a major priority regardless of what happens with other top targets. The same is true for next week's visitor, WR Jasen Lopez (Chaminade)- I don't believe he is an either/or with WR Vance Spafford (Orange County, CA) and the Canes want him badly. I continue to like the Canes for elite RB Derrek Cooper...

LSU 247 mod

4-star TE Isaiah Briggs visited Miami over the weekend and the 'Canes are feeling better about them being the lead school. In the 190-pound range, Briggs wants to be a WR and LSU has far too many pure targets at that spot to press.

Growing into a tight end in the SEC will be tough with his frame, at least the type LSU likes to use.
