That is my point, it is pieces to the puzzle one player doesn't win you the title but can cost you the title. So if Minter was in do we win the game? And just think if Faulk is not hurt for the UF game, maybe we are able to run the damn ball and maybe that opens up the passing game etc.... There is no way anyone can say that Faulk "a projected All-American" going down did not hurt LSU's offense and possibly make our offensive line less productive.
That makes no sense. If Minter NEVER came to LSU...then LSU would have recruited some other dude to play there.
Same as Cam Rob. If we are going to go where you did...then it would require Cam Rob to be on the LSU team and then get injured. Thus, his being out of the game "costing" us.

Are you freaking kidding me, so one player is no better than the other player. It is not that LSU wouldn't have recruited someone else to replace MInter it is who was the last MLB for LSU that racked up 130tackles in a season, 15TOL and 4 sacks. Minter made a difference and not having Minter in the game at the right time "you said yourself" cost us one game "UF." So plug in anyone else into Auburn at QB other than Newton and they win the title? Probably not. No, one player can make a difference and get you over the hump so to speak and help you win a title.
Also understand when you are ranked in the top 3 in the nation, and at least one service has him as #1, that means this recruit is a difference maker, that means that recruit is a really special recruit. He is expected to contribute and start as a freshman, be a multi year All American and play on Sundays. Those are not a dime a dozen. And LT is an extremely important "and most experts say most important" position on the OL and on the team. Getting a talent like CRob can help you win titles, if you don't think that then you are in stark contrast with the college coaches that are recruiting him.
I don't think anyone is saying we won't get other talent and I don't think anyone is saying LSU football will end as we know it if CRob doesn't go to LSU. But having CRob "from what all the experts are saying" is a difference maker and a special recruit. Having a player like CRob can definitely help you win a title.
Also I don't think anyone is saying we should get every in-state recruit, that is not possible. But this is one we really, really want and can make a difference. These are the lay-ups that you are looking for and unfortunately it looks like we are going to miss one, which will suck. And that can't be denied, this will suck if CRob does end up going to Bama.
