re: For everyone worrying, recruiting isn’t the same…

Exactly.
Many on here are freaking out because LSU only has 5 commits at the moment.
Well...
A&M only has 5 commits as well.
Alabama has 4
Florida has 6
Oklahoma has 6
Texas has 7
Auburn has 2
Those are all perennial top 15 or so programs you assume will be heavily involved in NIL deal making. They have roughly the same amount of commits as LSU right now (some less). NIL and the one-free-transfer rule have completely changed recruiting. So the fans need to change their perspective. The process isn't going to be the same as it was in years past.
If LSU gets to late November with only 5 commitments it will be time to worry. In June? Calm down.

Think about it:
There are some players who are legit top P-5 candidates but are underrated.
There are some who are not underrated but who are a stretch to make one of the top teams in the country, but they really want to take their chance.
These are some of the types of players who are willing to commit early to protect their own interests, if they have a committable offer.
The top 150 generally can wait, pick and choose and negotiate.
