re: LSU has a realistic shot to have a Top 3 overall class according to the rankings.

Unfortunately the math isn’t that straightforward. 247 uses an algorithm that assigns less than that full player value according to the other players in the recruiting class.
To prove that - look at the recruit number right now, which is 219, + the transfer number is 72, but the overall number is only 265. Pretty significant discount from just the straight math.
So total guess here, but assuming we reel in Matthews, Citizen, Lewis and one of Burton/Douglas, it’s probable that we end up 5th/6th but going much higher than that likely isn’t possible at this point.
That said, 5th/6th given where we were at one point is a win in my book.

Wish a few of those HS recruits from here would have held out and not committed in December

A firm grasp of the concept of accuracy has been elusive for the OP in many instances.
