It’s one kid. If Stingley and Emery had waited until today everyone would be praising it.

We have to do better on DL. But the sky isn’t falling.

This is a damn good class

Eta: Hanny is a massive douchebag if you meet him in person and is pissed he didn’t get Chris Blair’s job. Take what he says with a grain of salt

Nobody said the sky is falling, it's a just a little odd that our head coach who was hired in large part due to his supposed recruiting prowess can't close on big DL recruits.

The greatest irony is that the posters lauding the class today will be the exact same individuals excusing next year's lopsided loss to Bama because, gosh darn it, we just don't have the talent to compete with Saban.

Again, Stingley was better than any player they got.

Palmer was better than any WR they got.

Thomas was better than any OG they got.

They got the #1RB. We got #2 from Louisiana. We also got #8. Their second RB was 15.

Yeah. The difference between us at 6 and UT at 3 is less than 4 points. That’s like half a star on one player. WE HAVE TO GET BETTER ON DL. But this is a good damn class.

It's a good class. Anyone who says otherwise is foolish.

That said, you can't ignore that the HC significantly struck out on the position he both (a) has recruited extensively for 30 years and (b) said was the most important area to address if they wanted to beat his biggest rival. O kind of invited criticism by saying it was imperative that LSU get much better DL players...then missing out on most of the DL targets

Is there any proof of this or is it just one of those made-up things ranters like to repeat because it sounds edgy and ahead of the curve?

I agree. We have guys though. If we strike out next year I’ll be concerned

Even if that’s true, it’s been what? 3 years? He’s probably over it by now.

It won’t hurt us next year. 2020 it might though.
