re: Could LSU's 2014 recruiting class lay the groundwork for a football dynasty

I'm not knocking Louisiana's talent for 2014, but no class can spark a dynasty.
As good as Alabama's 2008 class was they wouldn't have accomplished anything without key contributors from previous classes and subsequent classes.
What you can hope for is a good 2-3 years of core players that are complemented with other players that establish depth.
Depth is what starts dynasties, not great classes.

You do understand that the rest of LSU's roster is also filthy with talent and depth, don't you?
The class this year was #1-#27 one of the most deep and loaded classes I have ever seen LSU pull in. The class last year had 16 freshmen playing - and most of them excelled.
LSU is just reloading.

FIFY, but more to the point of the of the thread title:

lay the groundwork
Of course. Just takes one stellar class on top of depth: 2009 class a perfect example.

2 or 3 great classes in a row is where the depth comes from. The 2012, 2013, and 2014 classes will bring extreme depth to our roster.

The thing about it is talent attracts talent. High schoolers pick schools that they think they can win championships on. After the 2013 and 2014 classes that we believe LSU can bring in, it starts to recruit itself. LSU has a framework already up. They have been winning for a while now, but these two classes could put them back over the top to lead the SEC West (and the nation subsequently) again.
