This isn’t going to be a well received post but if we want to be a consistent playoff participant versus a once every 4-5 years we’re going to have to do a little bit better. A lot will say that the difference between where we are and top is marginal, but that margin is getting an extra Harold Perkins. Over the course of a few cycles that really adds up.

Playoffs are moving to 12 though.

Why do you guys ignore the portal? They just got 2 5* both starters and a DL who's VERY good.
That factors into these rankings too since they're 1 year rentals anyway and just up to go to portal when things don't go their way. In some ways, the portal is more important because you get instant impact players that are proven. Harris is a 2 year starter for LSU and was a freshman all-american talent. You don't know what you have from the HS ranks and if they'll even last past a year.

Also it doesn't add up because you can lose them as easy as you get them with the transfer portal. Kelly isn't looking for one year assasins in the portal either. Look at how much time each guy has left.

Let me tell you why you’re wrong.
2017,2018 and 2019 we were ranked 7,15 and 5 and put together the greatest football team ever. Recruiting Rankings don’t matter. ND is in the top 5 every year, what do they have to show.

Your point is valid regarding the extras those schools get especially on the O and D line but our slotting in these rankings has always been consistently between 4-7. Why does it have to change now? Les actually recruited up most of his time(with a #1 and couple of #2) and it did squat to keep Bama from becoming a dynasty.
Now this is one that isn't gonna sit well. We are what we are and have always been since 2000. A program that is always on the cusp and among the most talented in the country but always a coach, QB or OL away from breaking through. Every 4 or so years we breakthrough and have a contending season actually winning one every now and then. A consistent top of the polls winner has never been what we are. Les had the greatest run our program has ever seen and yet half our base hates him. Why do we deserve better? Half of us certainly don't act like we deserve more. The unwarranted entitlement some in our base have is really strange. Potential to be and the reality of actually being are not one in the same. We have always remained stuck in the potentially category. And if we stay conservative in NIL we will continue to be
Also didn't thoroughly read your post so I guess I'm agreeing with you

Playoff is expanding to 12 teams, so that doesn't mean a whole lot moving forward.
You don't want to hear this: But LSU, at its best, is competing for a championship every 4-5 years. Keep this in mind when you pretend like LSU has ever in it's history competed for championships year after year in football.
