re: Next year's class is gonna be sickening

They already track middle school players. The LSU camp keeps track of year over year 40 time, height, weight, shuttle and high jump. You can see the coaches talking to the parents of the talented kids.

Along with all the other football camps, like FBU and O-D, players in the 7th and 8th grade start getting literature from schools, inviting them summer middle school camps.

I spoke with the LSU coaches this summer and they keep a database of the players progress, and send invitations to the ones they want to keep watching.
