Which ones?


Alabama, FSU, UF all have around the same amount of underclassmen leaving this year. Last year, LSU was an anamoly in the amount of draftable underclassmen.




Thanks for proving the point.

Do you honestly think LSU doesn't use the NFL pipeline as a recruiting tool? Highly recruited kids are here for 3 years, not 4.


Yes they use it, because it is a truth. It's not a self-fulfilling prophecy though. You think LSU was selling 3 years and to the draft to guys like Turner when they were recruits? That wasn't one of LSU's strong points when they were in high school.


I have no doubt LSU, Alabama, FSU, U$C are all using 3 years then NFL to recruits.

When you recruit "blue chip" recruits, any program is going to use being NFL ready ASAP as a recruiting tool.

I'm not even sure why you're arguing.

I'm arguing that underclassmen in these past 2 classes leaving early as a result of LSU's recruiting philosophy. After last year LSU starting using the defections as a recruitng tool, so what influence would it have on current team members.
