Most on this board aren't like that. Miles and company are pretty good at recruiting out of state

Why do our fans attribute the extreme opinions of a small minority to the entire fanbase?

I'm from here, have met thousands of fans, especially on this board. Can't think of a single one that would have ever made that statement.

If its anything less than a 75% chance those negatigers just say ex. "Georgia lock" to make themselves feel better if the guy doesn't end up being a LSU commit. Kind of like, how people don't set goals for themselves because there scared of failure. Although I do think RSJ commits to aTm, but I also believe we pull RF and RN.

I don't think this is the case.
However, a good majority of kids stay in state and close to their family. Not always the case, but most teams rosters are made up of in state players.

There's your answer. I'd say about 35% of the LSU fan base are scorned Saban lovers. Whatever he does is impeccable and there's nothing Miles can do correctly.
Unfortunately, that 35% has access to the board and they are the most vocal.
Seriously had a friend of mine tell me that he dislikes Miles so much that he'd prefer Mack Brown at LSU.

Some of our fans seem to think it's impossible to get big recruits FROM La anymore 
Beckwith, Fournette, Jones, Quinn, Willis, Robinson all will go OOS according to some one

Ever fan base has the lunatic fringe. Unfortunately, for LSU supporters, our fan base contains an over abundance of vocal "chicken little" types.

Hes talking about the negative nancys. people that only focus on the oos players that either we dont get or decommitt from us. Which is really funny considering some of our best players are from oos.
Its not rampant, but there a few people who always say, until he signs im not getting my hopes up, we dont do well with oos players. Very absurd. Think back to 07 championship. Half the team was littered with oos players. That had to do with the aftermath of the hurricanes, but still... It is very important tht les and staff keeps a presence outside the borders.

The same reason ppl think it's unheard of for La players to leave the state...

I agree for at least most of those guys, but we had a thread this week with people saying Beckwith was gone. A thread on 247 had Quinn all but gone to A&M. 9-10 months ago ST Aug was going to move Fournette to LB on Saban's orders

Because Beckwith isn't an LSU lock.
