Recruiting will pick up when Angel leaves. I wonder if there is a lot of negative recruiting against LSU because of her. Again, just an opinion

I actually strongly disagree respectfully. Reese is a polarizing figure (like Kim), for better or worse. The thing is over the last year LSU has had a HEAVY surge with publicity, opportunities, etc and there is a lot of jealousy in the NIL era where certain teams/players are capitalizing much more on it than others. Its pretty obvious there is some jealousy going on between specific players and programs.

The only downside from this last year is because LSU is so heavily followed and under a microscope, they are also scrutinized much more than your typical team (deserved or not), and for some recruits maybe they dont want to deal with that and prefer a more quiet and under the radar environment.

But that is okay, the publicity, exposure and potential opportunities will be a turn on for a lot of recruits/transfers and for others they may not want to deal with that and thats okay. You just have to go after the ones who want to be apart of that type of environment.

We just have to get past the 2024 class failure was more on LSU recruiting the wrong players more so than people running away because of Reese/Mulkey. Like I mentioned in the post on the first page. Most of that recruiting list was a long shot to begin with and not realistic while the recruiting list was exceptionally small. They will move on and adjust as needed. We literally signed the #1 class and transfer class just over a year ago and Kim struck gold in her first HS/Portal class as well
