re: CB Bernard Causey 2024 commits to LSU

Panned out is a very loose term. Just because they play or start don’t make them good. 6 and 2 and a suspect defense and an awful secondary isn’t successful. We are forced to play weak players because of injury, 5* that are under achieving and not pulling big fish in recruiting. Adding 18 3* exacerbates the situation. No undefeated seasons 8-4 to 10-2 seasons.

zip don't think you get it. These are the 3 stars out of high school that have panned out for LSU in the 2023 class

Logan Diggs - 611 rush yards 5.8 ypc 6 TDs 8 receptions 82 receiving yards

Andre Sam - 49 tackles 3 ints 3 PBUs

Braden Swinson - 22 tackles 4.5 TFL 1 sack 1 FF, 5 QB hurries, 3 PBUs. He's come along excellent in a rotational role and is probably our most disruptive lineman.

Jordan Jefferson - 21 tackles 4.5 TFLs 1 sack 1 PBU. He's only in rotation, but he's really damn good in his spot

Zy Alexander - 44 tackles 2 ints 7 PBUs say what you want, but he's our best cover corner by far. Alexander would be in rotation at the CB spot even if we had really good corners. Hell, if LSU had a decent secondary around him, he'd be way better than he is now.

Omar Speights - didn't play well at first because of injury, but has come along these last 2 games and has 17 tackles in that span

Now that I look back, only 6 are really out there doing their thing, not 8, however, with Zy out, Hughes and Stamps have a chance to make it 8.
