Coach said after signing day, kids said they were coming and didn't

Also the staff may have handled certain recruits wrong ( mainly Louisiana kids)

Why does there have to be blame? Recruiting is not and never will be predictable. Some kids who are projected to be stars are busts and some kids who after thoughts turn into superstars. At the end of the day things generally work out, so I see no point in calling out the coaches on a team headed to the CFP because they are clearly doing an outstanding job.

More than likely you are in no position to blame anyone. It’s recruiting. Live with the results or don’t follow.

Sounds like normal recruiting to me and this happens every cycle. The situation is compounded this year because LSU beat Alabama, won the SEC, is ranked #1, has a Heisman Trophy winner, and expectations are win the NC.

I have no doubt top recruits were contacting coaches expressing a desire to be a part of the LSU experience. Fans believed it and everyone was on cloud 9 anticipating the top recruiting class on ESD. One thing we’ve learned that has been proven time and time again, never trust a 17-18 year old kid until the facsimile is received.

The fact is, if signing day was the day after SEC championship, LSU would have landed some of these we didn’t get.

Orgeron has done a lot of good and is putting together one of the best seasons ever. Still every human makes mistakes and he did. He played his cards poorly in the ESD. That’s undeniable.

I had s thread saying the same stuff but going into more detail and it got whacked, hopefully yours stays up because you are correct.

For people not to acknowledge their past mistakes they are doomed to repeat them in the future.

We have an awesome class and we are sure to win championships with this classes help, but it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know things didn’t go as well as planned. Coach O said the night before signing they expect to sign 23 to 23 recruits. We only signed 19. So to say things went well across the board would be a lie.

Hopefully the coaches learn from their mistakes, I have confidence they will this ESD stuff is still in its infancy the coaches will tighten things up. But rest assured what happened just lit a fire under Coach O you know how much pride he takes in Crootin so you know he is going to be all over those remaining boyz like stink-on-shite and we will close strong as hell.

17-18 year old kids like attention.
17-18 year old kids like trolling.
17-18 year old kids don't always know or do what may be in their best interest.
17-18 year old kids don't value the honor of making a commitment.
17-18 year old kids don't make integrity a priority in their lives.
17-18 year old kids change their minds.
17-18 year old kids don't always tell the truth.
17-18 year old kids can easily be influenced by adults and others


Anybody who is pissed off because a 17-18 year old football recruit decided not to sign with a school that person happens to be a fan of and wants to "blame" someone like Vol or coaches is an absolute fricking moron.

Why would we blame anyone until after February. We have had a great recruiting year as it is

Why is processing a corner who had a bad senior year and a defensive lineman when we will finish with 4 or 5 of them a bad decision. If you had 5 quarterbacks committed you drop one of them because you don’t take that many at any position regardless of need. It leaves room for attrition and people to transfer out

Blame? I give credit for meeting the teams needs.
Somewhere there is a running back that will meet our needs prior to next season.
We are here, and we are staying.
