Coach O also perfectly demonstrated a recruiting 101 mistake with the Myles Brennan situation. That's all the evidence you need


There is merit to this, but remember last year when Felipe Franks was committed up to this time and then suddenly flipped to Florida. So if suddenly Brennan had flipped their only committed QB is Narcisse who is rehabbing surgically repaired knees. It never hurts to have a backup plan in place.

You do make a valid point about just throwing offers to every 5 star and telling your prime targets they are the apples of your eye.

The Franks deal is true, but you at least put an offer out there to recruit that is remotely interested in coming to LSU.

Didn't Frank's initially get pissed when lsu started looking at other QBs while he was committed. He probably would've went to Florida anyway but it just shows how deli ate qb recruiting is. Schools aren't pulling in multiple big star qb recruits in the same class, so you have to find youre guy and stay committed to him. That's just the way it is these days

I understand Os angle with the tua situation and possibility of flipping him and i like being aggressive in recruiting but. The odds of getting tua were extremely low and the odds of Brennan staying committed were very high. Not sure that's a gamble worth taking.
