We don't have the luxury of being picky right now at corner. The depth is razor thin and we need guys who can develop in the program to stop relying on a portal overhaul. I have no idea if this kid will pan out, but we need high school corners badly.


You're not wrong.

It's just a bit frustrating watching us recruit elite TEs, RBs, WRs, yet for some reason we're not bringing in the Top 100 CBs on a yearly basis like we use to.

Anyone can look at our CB offers last year and this year - we missed on a ton of top DBs and the coaches had to move way down on their board to get commitments. This isn't the way to rebuild an elite secondary.

Ondre Evans answered this question when he insinuated this LSU staff can’t develop DBs. He wasn’t wrong, we won’t get those 4-5 stars unless we have coaches who can prove they develop them. Cooks/Steeples isn’t that.

Evans left LSU for Georgia strictly because, unlike in previous times, UGA is now more proven to developing DBs than LSU. And he said as much in his statement. It would be smart for the coaches to listen to what recruits say is the reason they flipped.
