thanks for the link that was interesting.

its about par for the course when predicting recruiting that far in advance

Yes and in all fairness he did call it a “bold prediction piece”

For a year and half out for BOLD predictions, it's pretty good.

-LSU will land the nation's premier edge rusher, Kayvon Thibodeaux (NOPE)

-IMG Academy RB Noah Cain will sign with Texas (NOPE, but honestly was right he wouldn't be here)

-LSU will land the Tangipahoa trio of Ishmael Sopsher, Devonta Lee and Trey Palmer (1 for 3 with 2 still TBD)

-This class will be the best offensive haul for LSU since the 2011 class (This is obviously debatable, but it's great offensive haul so far)

-LSU will sign at least four prospects with a 5-star ranking (3 right now with Sopsher TBD still)

-Tigers will miss on CB Akeem Dent, but will strike gold with Derek Stingley (Spot on)

-John Emery Jr. will declare for LSU (Again, nailed it)

-Mississippi's Brandon Turnage will be in LSU's secondary class (Way off here, but we pulled Raydar Jones instead)

-LSU will sign 15 prospects from Louisiana (We arent coming remotely close to this, probably 12 max considering we only have 9 right now and the only 3 left we're recruiting really are Sopsher bros and Lee)

-LSU will sign the No. 1 ranked class in the nation (unfortunately hell no, will be great class but a "distant" #3/#4 class in the end)

That was one that i thought LSU had the best chance getting, especially since he visited during his jr year.
