re: Kelly's Recruiting Grade

My grade is a solid B+.
My analysis: we are not in the top 5 rankings of any recruiting service. Most 4* are the under 150 ranking. We didn’t get any super DBU corner. We got to any edge and not enough beef in the middle. Two linebackers, really, even counting the portal so far. We are weak at center and didn’t pick one up. We consistently had our shite pushed around on a bull rush up the middle. Yes, some players are better than ranked but some are worse. The transfer portal put us at a strong B+. If we add Renfro and a good backer I would say bases covered for an A. But then again when compared to Georgia and Alabama’s last three years we are well behind.

Our offense totally matches up to the best in the SEC accept the QB room. To clarify, not counting the last two recruits. It’s my opinion. We can wish either one would improve certain parts of there game but I don’t see it for the one who already has four years as a starter. But I pray he does.

I’m more worried about the defense keeping us in games next year as it struggled down the stretch last year. Of course the offense didn’t help much either. I still think we can have a top ten team. Geaux Tigers.
