So 15 of the Top 50 players were signed by either LSU or Bama. Amazing the amount of talent signed by them

Les and little Nicky doing work on the recruiting trail


Expand it further, 20 of the Top 50 will be in the SEC West

And

27 of the Top 50 signed by the SEC

This is not a good thing. Why are you bowing?

We have to play those guys. This, also, is a bad thing.

Usually like your positivity, but this is stupid.

By my count the top 4 SEC West teams signed 20 of the Top 50 in the ESPN 300. Then if you add in the Least, I mean East, 27 of the Top 50 are going to the SEC. No wonder all the other confererces have and will continue to suck hind tit when it comes to talent and depth.

Here's a troubling tidbit: EVERY Five Star signed by the little fella at his current job has been a 1st round draft pick.
Nauseating, even if many of them don't pan out in the league.

Negative. Off top of my head, Tyler Love, Burton Scott, Nico Johnson were all 5*. We're not anywhere near the 1st round.

But I thought 9-6 games are boring. Why would all the guys want to come to teams that play boring football?

The actual stat is every top 15 recruit, not every 5 star. Just to clarify, we've had several 5 star busts just like everyone else

Can we trade Bama and Auburn for Vandy and Mizzou. Even out the divisions a bit.
