re: Should we take a few LBs in this class?

That's the point I'm making...you develop them but LSU markets this silly 3 and done. It's killing us in attrition so if they're going to go with that plan they need to recruit better.

You think our coaches prefer losing players after 3 years? The NFL brought this on us with the wage scale, not our staff pitching it. Our staff is just trying to make the most of it by saying we have done it better than anyone else.

Of course they would sign 25 blue chips a year if they could. Not sure where you're going with that. The answer IS to take a few project guys you can count on being in the system for at least 4 years to compensate for the turnover. Some pan out, and some don't, which is exactly what you're seeing with the LBs this year.

In fact your OP is a perfect illustration. This year, the studs just aren't there, so if we do sign some LBs we'll slow play them, pick the ones that can hopefully be developed, and sign Joyner next year.
