We’ve lost two five star players in two years

Both had a lot of playing time too.

Honestly don’t think Marcel has everything together mentally. I mean that in the best way, he needs help.

Arik is just a groupie from the natty

What we really need are more old school parents that raise their kids to take their time making a decision and stick it out once they've made it.

These dudes cant complain about lack of play time. Sometimes you just have quitters

That's actually not that bad. When you recruit those top level players they often come with huge egos and the first time something doesn't go their way, they jump ship. Alabama has had so many 5 star guys leave over the years, you could probably make a very good college team if you got them together. It's the nature of college football, just look at the transfer portal if you don't believe me.

I’d be really curious to see some data on attrition for various programs. It certainly feels like LSU’s attrition (and I’m not talking about NFL early entrants) is really bad. But it’s hard to gauge whether it’s us, or just college football as a whole. I might try to put something together and flesh it out.

We'll be just fine, Nimrod.

A few players will not make or break this program. I think coaching does.
