Why does it only show us with 2 x 5 stars when we clearly have 3

Edit: updated now to 3.

It really depends a lot on the given year. This year there's a big gap after 5 with 6 to 10 being pretty similar before another significant gap. It's more typical for the gap to be after 3 with the next gap being somewhere in the 7-10 range.


I don’t really see that. Based on On3’s own rankings (LSU #7), the top 7 all have 2-3 5* and all have 15-16 4/5* except Michigan at 14 (Underwood is really elevating their class) and Georgia at 18 (not sure why they aren’t higher). I don’t see a lot of separation there. Only Georgia has more blue chips than LSU.

In the Industry rankings LSU is #8, but 5th in average. Bama, Oregon, and Georgia have 4 5*. LSU and Texas have 3. (Auburn has only 1 and Michigan 2.). Georgia again is well ahead on blue chips with 24 (but only 4th). LSU and Oregon are next at 19.

I just don’t see LSU having a materially worse class than anyone else, unless it’s Georgia. Perhaps they have lower 4* than Texas, Bama, and Oregon, but they are right in the mix.

No. 4 class in the SEC.

A whopping 0.6 points behind No. 4 UGA.

And ahead of UTn, aTm, AU, and UF.

Top 10 class that has met all needs except QB and we were a godfather offer away from landing that one.

2 stud RBs that are both good running and pass catching
2 (hopefully 3) lunch pail WRs that have speed, still waiting on Meadows
Solid in line TE
3 (hopefully 4) OL that give you depth and based on Kelly's press conf. Curne is physically ready to play early and we are waiting on Thomas's decision
5 DL commits all of which looks like potential animals
4 LBs with good speed
2 safeties that are solid and physical
2 stud CBs that are #1 in the country and #1 in LA


We literally met our needs aside from QB and it's looking like there will be a fair bit of portal activity at that position, so we can still fill that void.
-------------

Good summary.

I was hoping for another good CB, a top safety, and another DE edge rusher. Those are wish list kind of things, We signed a very good class. Love the Oline haul, the DTs, and the LBers. And of course Pickett and Anding.

Not good enough

BK will go 8-4 with #7

Casual fan. Star gazer. This class met our needs nicely.

Arkansas needs more fans. You would fit in nicely.

Long as we stay in the top 10 each year, then it comes down to coaching.

I would add player development. Which is shared by coaches and players. Some of these kids are better than projections and some are worse.

It blows my mind that this handle and our other one (Pike's Peak) are still on here.

Edit: updated now to 3.

Going to be four 5 stars once they expand the list to 32 players. On3 has Curne at 29.

2 5 star interior OL. Rebuilding the trenches inside out.
