Rivals: LSU is building the foundation of a top-three class

It was clear with the way LSU recruited in the 2023 cycle that Brian Kelly and his staff were going to be a thorn in the side of just about every program in the country with top prospects, especially in the state of Louisiana. After their first full cycle in Baton Rouge, LSU's staff was able to notch a No. 5 class on the backs of some solid wins both in-state and out-of-state.
RELATED: LSU's 2024 commitment list
In 2024, LSU is already pushing the envelope even further with 10 commitments in the class, helping push the Tigers to the No. 2 spot in the team rankings early in the cycle. Of those 10, two were secured this past weekend from in-state pass-rushers that each starred in the highest classification's state championship game in Louisiana last season.
Looking around at who LSU is trending with, it's hard to see a reality where the Tigers finish outside of the top three in the team rankings when it's all said and done. Whether it be Colin Simmons, Jelani Watkins, Davhon Keys or others across the country, LSU has a large handful of four-star-plus prospects in play as we head deeper into the cycle. Pair that potential with what already is in place, and Death Valley will not only welcome in one of the nation's top classes, but a transformational two-cycle run that could sustain the early success that Kelly has found at his new home.

I think EVERYONE knows now that CBK in Baton Rouge is a PROBLEM for many reasons including recruiting. I feel like I did when Saban was running things, there's nothing to worry about BK was on it even before it entered my mind

This was the part that jumped out to me. I haven't really transitioned into thinking long-term with BK since he hasn't been here all that long, but the article is right. If we do finish this cycle with a top 3 class as predicted, then that means we're at most 1 year removed from being back to the absolute highest levels of the sport. That's fricking awesome, and it's super doable, too. Imo, we're set up for a very good season this season, then we've basically got one more "transition" year, and then we'll have totally revamped the roster in BK's desired image. Can't wait, man.

Would be pretty amazing given the low number of high-rated kids from LA this year, at least so far.

The name of the game in recruiting now is as much about retaining the right kids as it is going out to find new ones

Yeah, it all sounds good, but I don’t see a top 3 class. We’d have to break 300.00 and we’ve never done that. We’d need four or five 5*s. There’s one in-state. I’d like to know where the rest would come from.

It's amazing what a sharp minded adult can do with this program.
