True, I understand about recruits in Gumpville. Hard to take one of those.
Why not Tre Lamar? LINK 4 star. # 8 LB in 2016 (Rivals) out of GA. 25 schools listed. No LSU.
Minnesota is on there. Syracuse, Wisconsin. Why not us? Maybe we have, but it seems like we do not even try on some recruits.
Not trying to be an arse, just looking for insight from some of you guys that follow it more than I do.

STEP 1: Don't take those offer lists so literal.

Give it time. Steele and Orgeron just got here. They will work with Frank, Henry, Cam, Raymond, and Grimes and target the best prospects in an efficient manner.

We have the best recruiting staff now. I mean that. We have a top shelf recruiter for every position.

Joyner, the big fish, and Divinity, the second big fish, are our main priorities at LB right now. Outside of those, we need one or two more OLB and an ILB.

IMO, it would be a waste of time trying to pull a born and bred 5 star Gump from Alabama. You're not just facing Alabama, you're facing Auburn as well. This guy has been on their radar for years. Kirby Smart is one of the top recruiters in all of college ball. Will Muschamp is a demon at recruiting too. Seems like a waste of time IMO.

LSU does in fact "not try on some recruits". For several reasons including lack of interest from an out of state kid. Especially though, they do their own evaluations and may not value the recruit as highly as some schools or some recruiting service.
