Per ESPN last week we were supposed to have the best recruiting class of all time by far. We only lost a couple of recruits yesterday but we gained a great one in Fulton. So how do we drop down to 3? I cannot stand the media and their BS. I still love our class and proud to be a Tiger, but ESPN are a bunch of clowns.

No we lost one recruit - Fowler "but gained Fulton" and Coxie has not signed yet because of academic issues but did not flip.

Lost 2 top 300 guys that they expected LSU to sign, and previous record was 19, which is where we sit. Lost that 2 player cushion, that's why the expectations...

It's not just ESPN. It is also scout, rivals, and 247. It's not a mass conspiracy. On paper, talent wise, pre-college, there are schools who signed classes better than ours. We filled our class with tremendous players who filled great needs for our program. Be happy with the class and don't put so much stock into the dropping of the class ranking wise at the last minute.

They expected us to gain the #18 overall player and we didn't, they were counting the #132 overall player and we lost him, and the "all-time" talk already factored in Fulton. It isn't some big conspiracy. Taking away 2 highly ranked players from a total of just 25 is a decent hit.

It's like questioning why the 2007 Patriots aren't considered a GOAT team since people were saying that about them a week before the Superbowl and all they did was lose 1 close game. 18-0>>>>17-1 just like 20>>>>18.

Would ESPN be clowns if we were #1? Grow up and get over rankings.
