DeathCultArmaggedon Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Player: Lache Seastrunk Hometown: Temple, TX Position: RB Height: 5'10" Weight: 183 lbs. 40 time: 4.41 (timed at Scout.com combine in Dallas, TX) Visit Date: TBD Scholarships offered: Nebraska, Auburn, Cal, Florida, LSU, Miami (FL), Oklahoma, Oregon, UCLA, USC, Texas, Texas A&M Favorites: TBD Rankings/Stars: Rivals: Scout: ESPN Grade: N/A Assessing the talent: "Speed and moves and acceleration are what make Lache a truly special player. He does a great job of finding the opening then bursting through the seam and finishing the play. His ability to accelerate so that the defensive player's angle of pursuit is off is truly one of his strengths. In full stride he is hitting three yards a stride and chews up the yardage." - from Scout (link above) Odds of becoming a Cornhusker: 1%. One of the most highly sought after prospects for 2010.

SODAKSKERSFAN20 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 This guy is a huge stud and probably one of the top 2 running backs for next year. He really likes both LSU and Texas as of right now. But, there is a lot of time for Nebraska to get in this race. Quote Link to comment

FlavaFootball Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Yes, LSU turned down a lot of big names for this guy. No shot for NU IMO, too many other big offers. Quote Link to comment

Yep LSU practically told Christine Michael no because they want Seastrunk so bad.. Quote Link to comment
redout22 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 He is a monster athlete but I don't think there is a chance we can get him. I wish he would come but I think it will be USC. Anyone see him wear those socks at the camp Quote Link to comment
caveman99 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 It really makes you wonder how confident LSU is in getting this guy since they did turn Michael away with Seastrunk in mind. Unreal IMO. Quote Link to comment
Reebsker Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 It really makes you wonder how confident LSU is in getting this guy since they did turn Michael away with Seastrunk in mind. Unreal IMO. Would be very amusing if LSU were to strike out on Seastrunk knowing they could have had Michael. Quote Link to comment
father5 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I saw his video and he looks like one of the best RB's I have ever seen. He looks like a rare talent indeed. Don't know if he would actually consider NU but he looks like his potential is incredible. Quote Link to comment
Ohio Pete Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Rivals.com U.S. Army National All-Combine Team RB: First Team: Lache Seastrunk, 5-10, 184, Temple, Texas; Corvin Lamb, 5-10, 180, Miami Northwestern Named by the Army as the overall most valuable performer at the combine, Seastrunk ran in the 4.52-second range and had a 42-inch vertical leap in testing and then had a good day in the one-on-one battles. "Lache is impossible to stop when you get him in the open field," Rivals.com analyst Barry Every said. "He showed that same type of explosiveness in the combine when he would beat the linebackers one-on-one time after time." For his performance, he received an invitation for next season's Army game. It was one that he immediately accepted. Quote Link to comment
JTrain Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I don't follow recruiting much. It seems completely insane for any school to actually turn down a 5-star player. Could someone elaborate on the story? Did Seastrunk explicitly tell LSU that he would more likely go there should they stop recruiting Michael? It all seems odd to me. Quote Link to comment

Ohio Pete Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Rivals #2 overall player and 5 6.1: RB Lache Seastrunk Ht:5-10 Wt: 183 40: 4.41 Temple TX :star :star/ :star :star 6.1/ESPN150 Watch List Not sure that Nebraska has a shot at him but here's the scouting info from ESPN: Fast, explosive, electric, either way you slice it, Seastrunk is arguably one of this class' biggest game-breakers at the running back position. He lacks ideal size but is very well-built, defined and his tight, quick twitched body allows him to run and play much bigger. Is very sudden through the hole and reaches top speed by just his second or third step. Displays great feet and quickness picking and darting his way through the initial traffic. Knows how to make himself thin and demonstrates excellent body control and balance. Runs with his eyes seeing the small creases open quickly. Has loose hips, great stop-start skill and can cut/change direction on a dime making him very slippery to wrap up cleanly. More. Quote Link to comment
