My guess is two or three waver and possibly change their minds, there will probably be two or three names no one is even mentioning come Feb.

It happens every year.
I can't say who for sure will waver but once high schools start playing (stocks increase and decrease) some players decommit on their own while others are encouraged to look elsewhere and the next it team in college surfaces and depending on college coaching changes - it all has an impact!

As a whole it seems like a dream we that we get CM JM AND Loston, but if you look at each case individually i really think that it is a good chance. how incredible will that be?

Even if he never lives up to the already lofty expectations we have for him on the football field (which, btw, I have no doubt that he will), Shep would be a legend at LSU if he were able to snag all three of these guys for the Tigers! Not to mention those who he's already helped get for us so far!

CM + Loston + McFarland + Randle commitments = My wad on the screen when I read it

I'm not holding my breath on the entire package, but from what I have read, each individually is such a decent possibility that it could come to fruition.

CM = 75%
CL = 60%
JM = 50%
RR = 70%

Total Package = 15.75%

Meh...

I think the initial list is very reasonable and realistic. We could inject numerous players to appease ourselves but that list seems realistic. I hope we do even better than that, you never know. Like Ive said before regardless of how this ends, I think we will all be more than happy on signing day. We should sign at least 1-2 more 5 stars. That alone would blow me away.

Well done LSUpsychward. Very realistic.

I think you came about as close as any I have seen. I would include 1 or 2 more people to bring the count to 24-25 rather than 23.

Who are you thinking as your 1 or 2 adds to the list? McFarland, Sentimore, T.Jones, Debose, Bostic, Nixon, the Utah Boys...someone or 2 from that list? A super sleeper?

Bostic and Tahj Jones are both possiblities at LB. I see us taking a TOTAL of 4 LBs:

Chris Williams
Kevin Minter
Willie Ferrell
Tahj Jones
Bark. Mingo
Jon Bostic
Jelani Jenkins

Any assortment of those I am fine with.

Also will need to greyshirt a player or two from this years class and you still need to account for Rocky D. and possibly Benton.

Numbers are going to be ridiculously tight.

I'm sure Miles can find 1-2 to kick off the team this year to make room for more talent.
