Pretty much the top 15 in the state? Except only 1 of the 3 QBs

Louisiana needs to be made the priority. Yes national recruiting is important but we need more Jack Bech and less Arik Gilbert.

Seems like nowadays a lot of these monster 5* recruits are ready to fake an injury and wait for the draft as soon as they get a chance to. I'm not arguing they're talent but it doesn't help us when Eli Ricks decides a halfway through the season to go against LSU's advice and have a surgery early. Then he transfers to Bama because he's a hired gun.

He doesn't give a frick about lsu. Now going into the season our best corner is going to be Greg Brooks. A kid that was a low 4* from Nola a few years ago and O passed on him but he transferred back to the boot because like all the other kids in our state they grow up dreaming of wearing those colors.

Make Louisiana the priority. I'd rather developmental local kids then these headcase 5* out of state kids that are constantly surrounded but uncles telling them that our program isn't doing them right with their hand out.

Solo, I think your post is great. But, I think it's hard to be a national contender when schools in the West are signing 8 - 5 Stars. At the National Championship level, I think you need more of a mix (Local + 5 starts)

On a different note, not seeing LSU mention on rivals with the 5 stars like back in the day with Coach O. This is VERY concerning to me.

Teams are built starting with QB.. then Dline…. Then O line. Then the rest. LSU has probably almost caught up on the line of scrimmage with the current roster. The flash of five star DB and skill players is fools gold if you do not have the line up to parity.
