Who are the guys currently on the LSU team that were rated as 5 Stars coming out of HS?

I don't track it that much - I'm guessing Keiland, T. Toliver, C Jones, Peterson?

Joseph Barksdale and Jai Eugene were 5 stars on scout. D Byrd was 5 star too but came from a JC.

Was Marlon Favorite a 5 star on either site? He was the top recruit over all on ESPN for a while.

Deangelo Benton WR - Rivals (Not Qualified)
Patrick Peterson DB - Both
Terrance Toliver WR - Both
Chad Jones ATH - Both (S/LB?)
Keiland Williams RB - Both
Al Woods DT - Both
Joseph Barksdale DT - Scout (moved to OL)
Demetrius Byrd WR - Scout
Jai Eugene DB - Scout

It's easy to look up...... unless you don't know who is still on the team......

So 7 or 8 of our starting 22 were 5 star players? Yep, Miles can't recruit.

Miles appears to be getting better at the recruiting game with each passing year. Although I know Peveto is supposedly hell on wheels on the recruiting trail as well.

Just trying to gauge how relevant the 5* ranking really is. It looks like about 1/2 of the 5*'s on our team are actually starters. Interesting.

Yeah all of the 5 stars have pretty much lived up to their billing. Woods and Eugene are the two that were maybe a little overrated. Then again, they both play positions that have been stacked for years at LSU, so they haven't had much of a chance to shine.

You guys forgot Herman Johnson, I'm almost positive he was a 5 star on Rivals.

No, it just proves that we have a lot of young 5 stars with veterans ahead of them
