We NEED 2 more 4* or 5* DL. Also we need 2 more 4* CBs

That's the point. People are just wanting to win the signing day, rather than becoming actually good at football.

You have no idea. In 2017 LSU’s class was ranked #7, but it was the number 1 class by a mile and a half. The key to having a great class is not to miss on many guys. If 15 of these kids live up to expectations, and about three stars emerge, it will be a great class.

We’re way behind? Let’s examine the 2019 LSU Tiger football team. Viewed by many to be the greatest college football team ever assembled.

Below is a list of 3 star players who became heavy contributors to that roster.

Lloyd Cushenberry, Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Saadhiq Charles, Patrick Queen, Justin Jefferson, Damien Lewis. Over a quarter of your starting 22 on that 2019 team were 3 stars.




Even more interesting…….below is a list of 4 star and higher players who did not contribute heavily to 2019’s success.

Todd Harris, Myles Brennan, Kelvin Joseph, Jarrell Cherry, Davin Cotton, Kenan Jones, Dantrieze Scott, Travez Moore, Mo Hampton, Devonta Lee, Ray Parker, Donte Starks, Kardell Thomas, Radar Jones.




Point being, LSU is still recruiting at as high a level or better than they did under Orgeron and sometimes, 4 and 5 stars aren’t the be all end all. On paper, at least according to the star gazers, 2019 shouldn’t have nearly been as good as they were.


LSU is bringing in plenty enough talent to be elite. The question, particularly on the defensive side of the ball, is how effectively can LSU develop its talent.

They absolutely can! So much happens on signing day and beyond. There are so many late flips that it could absolutely happen. LSU has been finishing better than most since BK. I can see it.

we are middle of the pack in the SEC in recruiting, I hope we can get past 4 or 5 more teams, but that ain't happening (i'm factoring in OK and TX into the ratings since they are in the SEC now).

Remember this next year.
