You’re never going to compete with Bama on a yearly basis. Give it up. Bama football is ALL THAT STATE HAS GOING FOR IT. They put EVERYTHING THEY HAVE INTO IT because of that. Like it or not, having the Saints in Louisiana hurts LSU. Having any major pro sports team in the same state hurts your college sports. It gives the businesses (and people) somewhere else yo spend their money.


This is total nonsense

Alabama has 2 major SEC programs in the state. That is most definitely a more direct competitor for NIL and talent than a pro team who does not ask for donations or investors to a fund to pay its players. The NFL sustains itself off its own revenue (novel concept). It’s not like people are writing out checks to the Saints to ensure they can pay the best safety in free agency

Alabama has money to spend and is crushing it in recruiting because they’ve been crushing it in recruiting for 2 straight decades which has lead to insane success which has lead to a massive influx of money from revenue, donors, and increase out of state students paying out of state tuition fees so they can root for the Dark Side. It’s not because they don’t have a pro team

12th on composite that compares every service


dumb. This is the difference between recruitniks and kids who only pay attention to composite rankings. There are only two recruiting services worth following. Those are 247 and 0n3. Only their personal rankings tell some sort of truth on the matter. ESPN and Rivals are trash and shouldn't be added in.

Sam Spiegelman hinted A$M and USC have been pressing hard and there's some USC smoke. We'll see if it's enough to flip him but based on the trend UF is on right now, it's a real possibility.

Two of those services are shite and lower than shite and just skew the numbers. Take On3 and 247 and the average is 8th (6th at On3, 10th on 247), which is a fair comparison of the only 2 legitimate services.

Can't imagine what this place would look like if LSU lost recruits like this within a month of and on signing day.

5 Star DB Xavier Filsaime
4 Star DL Amaris Williams
4 Star LB Adarius Hayes
4 Star DL Nasir Johnson
4 Star EDGE Jamonta Waller
4 Star DB Wardell Mack
3 Star DL Kendall Jackson

Also, 5-star commit LJ McCray reportedly won't be signing during the early period...

Missing on 5/5 was insane and made that Fournette announcement sooooo stressful, but we still replaced guys we missed on and finished with a great class. UF is dropping like a ROCK. They are having an all-time bad day.

It’s a great example that bags alone are not enough to get it done consistently. You still have to win and prove you can develop players, or shite like this will happen.

4 Star WR Izaiah Williams is expected to flip from Florida to A&M.

From Top 5 class to somewhere between #15-19. Now that's worth a good melt.

He signed with UF so like a 75% chance he'll be in the portal in 350 or so days.

They signed DJ Lagway and LJ McCray— both 5 stars. So not all was lost.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like he's not signing yet, but still committed.

Nm. I see he's signed now. Pretty good job stopping the bleeding for UF. Must have backed the Brinks truck up for these two.
