We lost our top 2 in-state kids to Bama last year
Here's the problem I have with this statement. While I won't dispute Collins was a the top in the state, I don't believe Devall was second. The problem with recruiting is that ESPN and some of the other sites are basing their "rankings" based on how certain teams are offering kids. I don't think we lost out on Devall, becasue we brought in a monster class at LB last year.
It's the same with other recruits.....we aren't going to get every single great player from the state. It's the same with every other college in the country. Ohio State doesn't get all the ones from Ohio, Bama doesn't get all the ones from Bama, Texas won't get all the best from Texas, etc. Instead of worrying about who we don't get, focus on who we do get and let's see how good we are going to be. Reality is, Bama will be near the top of the SEC while Saban is there, unless they get hit with sanctions. Reality is, LSU will be near the top of the SEC while Miles is here, barring any NCAA issues. We are going to get great recruits from other states, we are going to lose some LA talent to other states. Deal with it and move on.

We seriously missed out on Devall. We need to keep the la recruits IN STATE

I disagree with you because I think Devall may be the better player when all is said and done.

My problem is that people complain about the in-state talent while LSU cherry picks OOS talent.
Anyone have a problem with taking Illinois top talent this year? A few top Texas talents?
Anyone? No?
