For those still wondering about LSU "missing" on Rakim Jarrett

I trust this staff. They've earned it.
ETA: Obviously Jarrett chose to flip and the staff had nothing to do with it. The "I trust this staff" is directed at those who trashed our staff after we lost some "big time" recruits.

The staff wanted him. “Trust the staff” has nothing to do with it. More like they caught a break in spite of themselves if Jarrett fizzles out. Still, it’s a couple of practices compared to years of HS tape, and you’ve drawn conclusions based on the former.

This staff wanted him. What are you even talking about?

I agree with the larger point I guess but no reason to continue to dwell on this kid or take cheap shots.
Boutte looks like an absolute stud though.

The cream rises to the top when the competition gets real !

Jarrett is not a big loss. He’s very talented but his attitude and maturity are lacking
Glad to have Boutte and Moore

Maybe I chose the wrong verbage but I am opposed to those who said our staff sucks because we missed on a few big recruits we thought we had.
And screw you. It's big time attention and he can't handle the pressure. I most certainly will take his WHOLE high school career into account. However, if he can't flip the switch when big pressure is on...

Why are you saying you trust the staff because of this? I mean, I trust them, too, but LSU didn't just decide to let him go. He bolted.
I remember saying, before we had any idea Rakim might flip, that I thought Boutte was the best of all of our WR commits. Didn't seem like anyone thought much of that comment, either way. But when you compare these two on video, Boutte is a FAR superior athlete, in terms of having speed, quickness, and jumping ability. And there was no sign, that I could see, that Rakim had better hands or was a better route runner. Pretty much all he had on Kayshon was height. But, again, Kayshon's ability to high point makes up for that.
Regardless of whatever is happening right now, it was absurd that Kayshon was rated behind Rakim.

Two sides to every story. Taking shots and judging, a kid you have never met or even spoken to, because he jilted LSU is classless. Just be happy for the kid and live your life versus looking like a bitch.

Why can’t folks just let it go? He made his choice. We have an actual LSU signee absolutely tearing shite up right now, yet here we are still talking about some kid that signed with the Maryland turtles. It’s hilarious.

I do get what you are saying.
But our coaches would have taken that raw talent and athletic ability and turned it into productive skills.
The question for him, not us, is will Locksley's staff do the same or will he just be a freak athlete decoy.
As long as we got Boutte I'm not upset. Would've really liked to see Boutte and Jarrett, but alas. Boutte and Burton would've been good too, just not as tantalizing.
With the a) depth we have right now and b) WR crop in 2021 we'll forget all about Jarrett unless he ends up getting arrested or, statistically speaking, you watch endless hours of B1G network.

Reading this op and also reading Rivals the last 3 days, you have to think either Farrell has his yearly all Star man crush or 247 is severely hating.
Farrell had him as his too wr up to today. Boutte has had " moments".
Meanwhile 247 loves Boutte, even as far as saying he may the best player on his team, and Jarrett has struggled.
How does this happen first of all? Are the 2 sites taking turns play to play watching wrs vs dbs or is preferential memory the cause? I mean it's hard to grasp seeing that you can't just bullshite a guy dropping passes. It's all publicly reported and videos are posted to twitter.
Yet another reason to never buy in too deeply anything these recruiting sites report. Too many inconsistencies and room for judgement/favoritism.
