Long shot to even be in top 3 with all the misses

Dude... we are top 3 right now with only 19 commits. The 2 teams ahead of us are Bama and Ohio St. Bama has 25 players committed already and Ohio St has 22.

And the only thing people talk about are "all the misses". Yeah we missed out on some in state players. We also got 2 of the top 5 players from the state of TX, the #1 player in Illinois who is the #1 MLB prospect, the #1 player from MS in Voorhies, and Clark is still committed to us and is a top 2 player in the state of Oklahoma. He could decommit due to family reasons that everyone understands, but he hasnt done it yet.

And we also got the biggest fish in the pond in Leonard Fournette, who just happens to be the #1 player in the nation and has been labeled a "once in a lifetime" type prospect. Not to mention some other big time players from the state of LA like Quinn, Godchaux, Williams, Brumfield, Clapp, Harris, Washington, etc.

If we get Dupre and Valentine and the 2 LBs from TX, we will have a hell of a class.

Its amazing how people think that this has been a bad year recruiting for us. Yea we missed out on some in state players, but we also replaced them with studs from out of state, some are upgrades over the in state players. And when its all said and done we will be a top 5 class, most likely top 3, and will still be 1 of the best classes we have ever had.
