re: Cole Smith is a beast!!! UA game

Don't let the fact that 11 players have started or significantly contributed

2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2011, 2009, and 2001 all matched this number.

The rosters from every season dating back to 2001.

Correct. DiNardo, Saban, Miles never had 6 freshmen leave after their freshmen season.

Three problems with this statement.

1) transfers have never been as common as they are right now. When dinardo, saban miles (most of his tenure) transfers weren't very common.

2) one of the biggest problems with miles was his unwillingness to process players

3) why are you bringing Dinardo into the discussion? Is that where you want this program to be? A consistent top 25 team who could shock the world once and follow that up with a loss to ole miss?

So the most recent class has had two seasons to match what 2018 has already done after just one season. How bad were all of those classes that most have completed their eligibility and JUST match the 2018 class after one season.

Tell me how horrible the 2018 class is again. I love hearing the misery over absolutely nothing.

So there’s another FBS program that had 6 freshmen leave this year? Shouldn’t be that hard to show me.

This is a lie.

What?? The point I’m trying to make is that no coach ever had the kind of attrition from a freshmen class because the 2018 class was awful. 6 players gone, another 8 who won’t contribute this season. That’s a bad class. Period.

Your point about we wanting the program to be where DiNardo had it is pure nonsense.

The 2017 class matched the number in one game, buster.

8 players who are gone, 8 who won’t contribute this year. That’s 16 out of 25.

So you are only crying because it is the freshmen who would never play who are leaving so the team can get to 85 scholarship players.

If some of them were juniors or seniors you wouldn't be crying like a little bitch?

In this story, numbers on each recruiting class. One that stings? The 2015 class, where 39% of the signees have already transferred or been dismissed.

From the 2014-2016 classes, only 32 signees (44%) remain on the team right now.

A long read on the state of the #LSU scholarship chart, including insight on moves Orgeron's had to make.

You may want to calculate the percentage of 2018 players that have left and then start crying like a little bitch about the 2014, 2015 and 2016 classes. They have had A LOT of attrition.

That’s 16 out of 25.

You really are an idiot. If I wasn't wasting time while watching the CWS on mute I wouldn't even talk to you.

LSU did not sign 25 players in 2018 moron. Know what the "F" you are talking about before opening your mouth and alerting everyone to the fact that you are indeed an idiot.

2 players graduated. If you thought LSU was better off having Cole Tracy and Alexander then that point is moot.

LSU had 22 signees in 2018. Six have left for a reason other than graduation.

That means LSU still has 73% of that class on the roster. 73 percent.

Cry me a river little girl. You are funny.

Did someone say it was awesome or something

---

Yeah, more than someone. It was mind blowing how more people weren’t disappointed with the class. People were touting it as a class that met needs (which is why O needed to grab a transfer player at QB, CB and K) and addressed depth (which is why LSU was so thin at TE that they claimed they couldn’t run the 2 TE sets they wanted to run.)

quote:

---

we just couldn't be patient with guys who might contribute as juniors or seniors.

---

Right but as I pointed out in this thread, look at the commit dates at some of those 3 star recruits.

Cole Smith committed March 2017, Tae Provens June 2017, Zach Sheffer June 2017.

What if instead of those guys being committed over 6 months out, LSU was still looking at other offensive linemen or running backs or tight ends??

Yeah, they did buddy. Tracy, Burrow, and Alexander all accepted a scholarship, one of 25 given out for the 2018 class. You should probably know what the frick you are talking about and alerting everyone to the fact you are indeed an idiot.

Never said LSU was better off without Tracy. Sweet straw man argument though. Was merely again pointing out the 1 year rental of 2 players, one worked out very well, one didn’t work out at all.

Kinda like in 2017. Remember these guys?

Remind me, how many games did Giles and Moss start?

That’s 6 players that left after one year. What happens when more inevitably leave this year?

I’ll tell you what happens. You don’t get to use your buddy Shea’s tweet anymore because suddenly those awful attrition numbers apply to this class as well.

Sad!
