re: Maybe Les isnt the problem...

While it is Les fault, he has limitations on visits and phone calls to recruits. It's up to the assistants to help reel these guys in and coach up their position groups. To me it seems like chavis and haley failed at recruiting their positions. The plan was in place.

They dudnt just ignored a position. Only time they did that was at rb, and LSU isn't hurting there.

Again, you are giving him excuses where he failed. He failed to get his team to sign those players. Want to guess what else he did? Slow played a ton of players that would've come. Furthermore, this is the problem with some of the LSU fans. You care about the # of 5*'s and team recruiting ranking even if it means having an unbalanced team with holes, because people clearly celebrate these classes.

If you miss on big top players, you need to have back up plans other than taking extra DBs, RBs, WRs, and of course TEs.
