Everybody said you cant recruit like Saban for years until Kirby came along with multiple #1 classes BEFORE winning a title.
Smart is Saban. He’s the only other person and is a clone. He also is in a state that has exploded with elite talent over the last 2 decades.

Then you have Jimbo at A$M bringing in a #1 class.
Fishers average recruiting class, per On3, is 8th excluding the outlier of 2022. They’re currently sitting 12th.

LSU already has a leg up on all of these teams because of no in state competition.
This doesn’t mean anything honestly, not anymore.

No excuses for anything less than a top 5 class every year.
That’s what I said. We need enough high caliber players every year. Some years that will equate to a top 5 class, some years it will be 7th. I don’t particularly care what the number is, as long as the talent level and position needs are met.

What makes Smart equal to Saban? He was getting #1 classes before winning anything. Saban built a strong reputation by winning. The only thing that makes sense is that UGA started offering more cash than everyone including Alabama.
UGA doesn’t even recruit the state of GA very well. Look at the numbers over the years. Their elite classes have been a mix of elite GA talent with a lottt of Elite prospects across the country. UGA has to recruit against Alabama and Clemson big time and then throw in Auburn, South Carolina, FSU, and Florida too. LSU is in way better position recruiting their own state than most programs especially UGA.
I threw Jimbo and A$M #1 class just to prove that somebody besides Saban and Smart can bring in a #1 class.
I completely agree every now and then a top 7 class would be okay considering circumstances. But LSU should get a top 5 class every year on average.
