While it would be great to have more D-Linemen committed, "horrifying" is way over the top. We are still 3 1/2 months away from signing day.

It happens pretty much every recruiting class. One position or the other seems to be under-represented at Thanksgiving, and folks start chirping their doom-and-gloom. But magically, LSU pulls one or two guys late that ends up making that position group to be a strength.

It is great to discuss "current status" with recruiting. We all do it. But never panic in mid-October. Not if you are a recruiting monster like LSU.

WRONG! Alot of the top DLineman could be signing in Dec 2018.

That leaves little time for Ed O and LSU finding quality Dlineman. If they miss on the kid out Amite filling Dline with Projects is not the Answer. You are seeing the results of this now. No true freshman are adding starting depth to the current DLine and we dont know what to expect from this current freshman class of Dlineman. Add in more projects from this years Dl recruiting class than LSU could be looking like Ark/USCe in a year or two on the dline. ED/meatball needs to get there butts moving and start competing for the big dogs that can come in as true freshman and add a little depth to the starting rotation like R. lawerence/ ed alexander did as true freshman.

Umm, last cycle. Totally whiffed on qb and cb. There were concerns that ended up being right.
