So if you take out 2012, which doesn't have much impact on this year's team and add 2007 which LSU was ranked 4th and I bet last year's team had a high five year average recruiting ranking compared to other teams. Their average ranking would be 5.8.
During the same time here are the totals for:
Alabama: 1.6
USC: 3.4
Texas: 5
LSU: 5.6
OSU: 11.6
haha. so our true freshman who are playing this year don't count? Okay, if you want to cherry pick which years to add and which ones to subtract, I'll play your game by taking away a No. 18 ranking and adding a No. 4 ranking to assist you with your argument...
And even your cherry picking is pretty much exactly what I said... Why is it that LSU is having much more success than Texas right now? Miles is able to develop that talent to put his team on par with the team that is undeniably No. 1 overall in recruiting... Alabama.
If Miles were not developing that talent and not coaching well, we might see them with results similar to Texas.

My bad, I should have used last year's team against others as this year is so young yet. I will say that Miles does a great job at player retention. He hardly ever has players leaving the program.

Just playing devil's advocate using Texas and LSU but didn't LSU go through a similar run as Texas a couple of years back (08/09) while Texas was playing in the national title game? Was Mack Brown a better coach than Les Miles then?
