Florida is king of the state and Florida St is ACC. The biggest names want to play in the SEC

You ever been to a Texas High School football game? What is the dream of every kid on those teams? To play for Texas. You could have 927 other programs and Texas will still get their pick of just about any kid they want.

How does it make me a pumper to say that I think Texas and Florida are better jobs? Isn't that the opposite of a pumper? Shut the frick up, dumb arse.

then why have TAMU and Baylor had higher recruiting classes recently?

FAIL, again, pumper.

But keep shitting on Louisiana. You and the rest of the pumpers are showing your true colors.

No, you're an idiot because you think it's about 25 slots...and not getting the best 25 available.

I know it's tough to comprehend.

Because Texas recently underwent a coaching change. Were you not paying attention? How did Texas end up ranked higher than them the previous 25 years?

Actually, I don't. I just told you that Texas gets whomever they want. They do. When Mack Brown was there, Texas had 25 kids signed in September like five straight years. That's crazy.

come on, do the math.... 

How many major D1 programs are in FL? 

come on, do the math pumper.... 

The only state with a possibility of being close in GA.


I am doing the math. Texas has a lot of schools, I will give you that. But just recently the talent is being spread around d to schools not UT.

Florida had 44 players drafted, 44!!! You split that evenly between the 3 major programs that leaves you with 14 NFL players per team.

Louisiana had 9. LSU signs all 9 of those, they are still behind the Florida schools.

I don't even have to do Georgia since they only have one school because the other runs a certain style of offense that doesn't cater to a lot of recruits.

The amount of d1 prospects in those states is ridiculous. There is enough talent to go around.

Plus the talent here is misleading. Sure LSU can sign 4* and 5* athletes out if LA and make their classes look good but there is no beef here. Its mostly skill players.

LSU has a unique recruiting advantage that no other school can match.

The only P5 school in a talent rich state.

Yes the state only has approximately 4M people however it so happens to per capita produce the most NFL players.


And some of you people will never accept this but some coaches are bound to have the perception that if a fool like Miles can win there imagine what I can do.

Who cares about Texas??????? LSU digs into texas recruiting every year as well. LSU is a sexy job, Get over it.

But I guess you are satisfied winning 9 or 10 games a year only and thats it right? WE WILL NOT WIN ANOTHER CHAMPIONSHIP UNDER MILES

Can you idiots not separate thinking that LSU isn't as good a job as Florida and Texas from Miles' future? I don't give a shite about him. Keep him, fire him, it doesn't matter. LSU isn't as good a job as those jobs. Look at any list. No one in Louisiana has Joe Jamail money.

AU is on the Alabama/Georgia line and they both compete for the same recruits annually. Just saying.

Ok even if LSU isnt as good of a Job as those, THOSE JOBS DONT HAVE AN OPENING! Florida has their man and Texas is going to let their coach have a few more year.

I don't disagree with this. But LSU is easily a top 10 job, arguably top 5.

The recruiting advantages LSU has are still hard to argue.

It's not arguable. LSU is most certainly a top 5 job.

Some people are too dumb to realize this. Even if they are better jobs none have openings, so why is he even arguing this? Its dumb and pointless
