Ultimately, you see so many guys that make fans say "he was only a 3 star!" because there are like 250 guys every year that end up with 3 stars..odds are at least a few of them are going to work out better than that.

You only get like 25 5* guys a year..percentage wise I bet if we looked it up, a higher percentage of them became impact players.


You are spot on. But star gazers wont hear it. Every year people bitch ab. 3* getting offered. These same idiots, think LSU is the most talented team in the country. You cant bitch ab 3* and #18 classes and say we are the most talented team, we shouldnt lose. Its absurd. Really there is ab 10-15 teams wirh equal talent. Plenty of schools have had higher rated classes than lsu over the past 5 years. Schools like tamu and clemson. Look at nd, weis had some sick classes.

No way! Our coaches have become much better at scouting the kids. We benefit form being the area with the highest density of prospects - by a lot. The scouting sites have to spread their stars out to get people in Michigan and California to subscribe. That means the areas with the highest density of talent will have the most underrated players - Louisiana! I'd bet if you looked at 5/4 star density Louisiana wouldn't have nearly the density as it has when their actual college careers are rated.
