time to get recruits with character not stars

our 5 stars have shite the bed the last few years. the 3 and
4 star kids with high character and the want to be here are the ones who have excelled. Ricks, Stingley have been a joke. flott and mcglothern have excelled cause they want to be here, are coachable, and exhibit a team first attitude. Stingley and Ricks in my opinion are pretty boys who only played for themselves. if Perkins is like Ricks and stingley, and from all reports he is, he can go kick rocks.

Your username is certainly appropriate.

Stupid post, good luck with that. You can recruit both.

We're still gonna have to pay market value. Even kids with good character and an allegiance to Louisiana would be stupid not to take legal money.
But, yes, I do believe we should pay attention to how kids act.

I get your point but Stingley is not a problem and he was injured. Good kid and not in same conversation as Ricks

And LSU will go 0 and 8 in bowls like ND

What about the 3 and 4 stars that want to be here, are coachable, and have a team first attitude, but haven't excelled?

Are we coming to a sweeping conclusion based on a few guys?

Time to get recruits with stars and have coaches who can instill character

So many teams have won the CFP with 3*s

That’s just not a LSU problem it’s all of college football. Go look at how many 5 stars out of high school get drafted and how 3 stars get drafted. Also where they get drafted.

You no longer recruit palyers, you pay players....that is all.
NIL and the transfer portal are in charge, not the university.
Get used to it!

Stingily and ricks are good examples. It’s an example of why I’m okay with Raymond leaving. But I think BK will give a compelling vision and leadership to keep those 5 stars.

if that's what Kelly wanted he would have stayed at Notre Dame

I'm sorry, but that doesn't really work well in today's cfb especially the SEC

Nope.
Pay them.
And them get them to buy in into what you're doing once you get them on campus.

You can find both. I think Dabo has done a good job of that.
But yes I’d rather a very good 4* with high character than a 5* locker room cancer. All day.

That's what Jim McElwain did for FL and we see how that ended up.

BK had plenty of character guys at ND. He wants to win NCs and you don't do that without 5-stars.
Dealing with difficult personalities that come with *some* elite players is the cost of doing business.
Is it actually the player or the culture created by the coach? I don't see Dabo or Saban having many issues with problem personalities.
