Talent, facilities, recent success


Facilities mean little due to NIL. This is why Ole Miss pivoted and stopped putting funds to a stadium refurbishment and put the funds toward NIL. Miami at their greatest never had great facilities.

Talent. In-state recruiting is going to be tougher now b/c paying players has always existed but with NIL the pay is more b/c there's more transparency. Honestly, at this point, both Miami and Ole Miss have more talented rosters than LSU.

Recent success. There's some significance for this b/c it means a lot especially if a guy can play in a certain scheme or with certain players.

If you're just outright buying players, then I agree.

Great facilities still mean something if you're taking the approach that schools like Georgia, Ohio State, and LSU are taking.

Absolutely no way.

LSU was at #7 in the 2023 Team Talent Composite, Miami was at #12, Ole Miss was at #23.

Impossible to make up that much of a difference in one offseason.

Overall 247 Composite Recruiting Rankings for 2024 (transfers and recruits):

6. Miami
9. LSU
17. Ole Miss
