re: Why don't we just admit it about our baseball team

I agree that he hasn't had a full recruiting year to bring in, and work with, his own recruits.

But do we know if he can recruit? I admittedly don't know a lot about his reputation as a recruiter, and LSU isn't exactly working from a position of strength in that regard.

We no longer can rely on reputation to woo players. So many of the teams have more recent success, better facilities and better atmospheres.

Can Johnson recruit and develop players as well as the best programs in the SEC? If not, we're in for a world of hurt.
