Well...who knows?
There are several recruiting services/sites, and when you look at the "on field results," versus these services' assessment of talent, there is a HUGE DISCONNECT, in other words, the evaluators seem to do an inferior job, with kids in Louisiana. Unless you are in a "metro area," like N.O./Shreveport/Lake Charles/B.R./Lafayette/and Monroe.......you will be ignored.
Let's look at Boutte's performance at a "cluster evaluation in Atlanta," he seemed to have performed very well and ACTUALLY STOOD OUT.
So you ask about 5*'s? Louisiana is not adequately represented. This has been going on for quite some time.
One of those sites focuses on Texas; another focuses on Alabama; the other on Florida and Louisiana's population does not warrant the same level of "bias/representation."
So we may get one 5*, wheras we may have 6 or 7. I don't mind the under-representation. Stars are really not as important, as representated.

But yet the Tigers have to fight those others from taking many away from this state. The low ratings seems to be in case the Tigers keep most of them.

White and Boutte have been blowing up camps against top notch talent. White is making a splash on both sides of the ball actually.
