According to ESPN, LSU only signed 23 last year. So why couldn't we sign 27 this year if they can still back count?

We had 24 players in last year's class. I'm not sure who ESPN is omitting, but it's either Seth Stewart (quit after a couple of days on campus) of Justin Jefferson (signed late in the summer).

Then, we added three transfers: Moss, Feheko and Giles.

So that's 27 initial counters for the 2017-2018 year. Apparently that was our maximum.

I know this guy is supposed to be one that knows but I still believe hes incorrect about the transfers. I've poured over many articles and explanations, while also reading the rule numerous times and the way he explains the transfers as initial counters is not how the rule reads. A kid can't be an initial counter at multiple schools. If he is correct then the word initial needs to be removed from the term. The kicker was an initial counter because he had never been on scholarship. Therefore he is being "counted" for the first time or initially.
