More evidence that the star system sucks...Gage got the very last offer because LSU simply had run out of people it wanted....Jefferson was a 3 star, and a last (or very late) offer of a scholarship.

It does not suck. They miss on some guys, of course, but they are right way more often then they are wrong. The wrongs just get the headlines.

I am willing to bet money that If you broke down NFL rosters there are way more 4 and 5 star guys than 3 and below guys.

Burrow, 4 star
Jefferson, 3 star
Chase, 4 star
Landry, 5 star
Beckham, 4 star
CEH, 3 star
Fournette, 5 star
Gage, 3 star
Williams, 4 star

Of those 9 players 3- 3 Star (33.33%), 4-4 star (44.44%), 2 5-star (22.22%)

2019 signing class - 3 5-star (12%), 11 4-star (44%), 10 3-star(40%), 1 2-star(4%)

Looks like, based on the star ratings for this group compared to the 2019 class (which was heavier than typical for LSU on 4 & 5 stars as I recall), the 3 stars really underperformed as a group.

I think the evidence contradicts your conclusion.

You're saying the star system sucks, yet admitting they were late offers/fallback options???
