re: How Are the Top DLine Prospects in the Nation Not Lining Up At LSU's Door?

2016 has some big DL recruits though.

Need to fix the problem now or unfortunately that 2016 class won't mean all that much.

I mean what do you want us to do to get them here? Kidnap them and force them to sign with us? The top DL prospects have options all over the country at the top schools. LSU is def in that group, and we always have visits loaded with big time players. But its pretty hard to get 1 of those to sign with you on NSD. I mean think about it... Each of the top DL pretty much have their pick of the top schools in the country... only 1 school gets them.

You can't be serious?

Get this crap out of here.

This is LSU we are talking about. Formerly known as "DLineU." How does Alabama come into Louisiana and get top talent? How did Florida do it this past year? How does Mississippi State have better lines on both sides than LSU?

You are going to say that it is HARD? Whatever. This is an arms race and if you can't keep up, then you have to fire whoever isn't getting the job done and find who can do it.

We aren't developing the players we get and we aren't getting top notch players at these positions. You don't just "whiff" on that many 4-5 star prospects while Miss. St. dominates you on both lines of scrimmage.

I have always liked Haley. I am not actually wanting to get rid of him. But, something has to change. The problem is here and 2015 does not look to have a solution. So, that means it will just get worse.

Honestly, I am getting a bit tired of hearing about the 2016 class. We have massive holes to fill in 2015. Why can't we do it?

This is not a "sky is falling" post. It is an assessment of the situation and asking what the solutions might be.
