The concern I have is not how many three stars we have but how many top committed recruits we have at the moment. I know we are in the running for a few 5 stars but we also know how a lot of those pan out as well. Last year our average was at 91.4, this year is 88.4 (only 2 recruits in the top 200). Still a long year to go, I'm sure O and co will finish the class off strong

You are comparing LSU's final 2017 ranking to the current one in June. It's not an accurate comparison. Even if no one moved up in ranking and we signed Surtain and Marshall, the composite would jump quite a bit. It's way too early. We just have to let this play out. Between O, Austin Thomas, Meatball and Robinson, we will do just fine before all is said and done.

Just give it time, the averages will come up as the players get bumped. I could easily see us beat last year's 91.4.

8 of the 13 have already been bumped to 4 stars in the ESPN 300. These same 8 will all be bumped per Dixon on 247.


This is all before their senior year. I'm sure some of them will fall in the rankings, but I expect the majority to continue to move up. Long way to go til signing day...
