Plenty people like to assume things without really knowing anything.

You don’t just replace guys like Frank Wilson.

Well f it. We need to start using some of the dealerships on Airline Hwy to our advantage then. With O though, we would be caught with a quickness and given the death penalty.

I don't think (if my memory is correct) that he attended even one of the big LSU events this year. He was always on visits elsewhere - Michigan, etc.

It's incredible that you can lay facts out and some not see it.

Alot of "projects" on that list. Will be pleasantly surprised if 2 of those guys are ever starters and big contributors at LSU.

Posting a list of recruits from a recruiting site and providing a link to said information is only considered pumping by idiots who hate the data provided.

Davis is the composite #7 RB. I think any player in the top 10 at their position would be considered elite or at least pretty damn good. Cain is just ahead as the #6 composite RB.

Bring back? We didn’t get rid of him he Is a head coach. It’s not like he left LSU for a lateral move or to be a coordinator.

I wonder where he would have placed the #219 overall player and 20th rated CB in the 2016 class on his list. Certainly not in the elite section.

I wasn't going to tell him that Greedy was rated as LSU's 16th best player and 219th overall recruit and 20th best CB in the 2016 class.

He would probably just think I was "pumping" again.

I said this last year with him. How is he head to head against the big boys in recruiting? Its easy to offer a under the radar guy at camp. Not impressed with Robinson at all. People said he wasnt good at texas as a recruiter as well.LSU coaches hiring their friends always seems to lead to bad things down the road.

Robinson is another USC buddy. He was on staff with him during his interim coaching season there.

It isn't just Emery. Robinson missed on both Akers and Etienne. I won't comment on Kardell, but I have to think that Raymond played a bigger role in Stingley's recruitment than Robinson.

Typical baseless hate for Orgeron. You read that shite on a UT website and pass it off as gospel? When Orgeron pulled Robinson from USC he had just been named PAC 12 Recruiter of the Year.

I have been pleasantly surprised by O and his game day coaching.

However, I have thought we have been kinda lazy on the recruiting trail and taking the easier gets.
