1) Does that allow us to take one more in this class OR not, b/c we've capped out w/ EE's?

And

2) Does this legitimately help our chances w/ Devonta Smith /Nico Collins / Racy?? I eyed think we have to take AT LEAST 3 WR's this year considering we'be lost Dupre, Dural, Diarse, Quinn, T. Johnson & K. Spears in the last 12 months.

The number may be only 2, we have enough depth still and the 2018 class is absolutely loaded with WR in louisiana.

LSU will sign at least 1 more WR IMO...if not 2.

Chark
Sullivan
Anderson
Davis
Dillon
Gage

Only 6 on roster with 2 already from this class. Can't imagine LSU will head into next year with only 8 WR.

They can enroll 25 recruits every August. Early enrollees do not count against that 25.

Does not allow us to take more. His leaving just minimizes the "processing" that may have to take place to keep us under the 85 next year. The only way he could have increased the number (and this does not work this year) is:

o he graduated by the end of last year

o we needed space under the 85 to make room for an EE

o there was room in last year's class to back count the EE.

I don't know the numbers for sure, but it is unlikely that the back count space is more than 2 or 3, and we already have 6 EEs.

Don't know about the WRs, but apparently LSU just offered an IN TE recruited by Canada:

Have no idea what this says about signing expectations of other targets.

In one sense you're right, but a school is limited to 25 initial counters a year. An EE is considered an initial counter this year unless there were less than 25 the previous year. In that case an EE can be applied to the previous year, but only up to the 25 limit. Not all of our EEs will be applied to last year...probably not more than 2 or 3.

I'd like to see us get Devonta Smith. He would be perfect for us.

Dee will be what Malachi could have been, and that's not slighting Dupre.

i think we take at least 1 more WR (Smith | Racey | Collins)

Chark just became our #1 WR

Sullivan / Anderson / Davis / Gage / Dillon

Netherly / Guidry / @ least 1 more in this class

I believe Chark was our #1 WR this past year, based on overall performance. Now we need a couple to step up with him.
