From 247 AGAIN:
How the Transfer Portal affects National Signing Day
Early Signing Period: West Virginia counts Alabama transfer VanDarius Cowan as part of 2019 signing class
CSU football expects to fill last void in signing class with late additions and transfers
I can go on and on and on and on.
Forbes article on transfers
Nothing of interest in the article but the Forbes article had this as the article's picture.
"Because his program signed 20 prospects in December's early signing period, LSU coach Ed Orgeron, center, and his coaching staff have been able to concentrate on recruiting a few key remaining 2018 prospects, as well as current high school underclassmen, ahead of next Wednesday's national signing day.

We're not talking about how transfers count against scholarship numbers, we're all well aware at how things work there.
We're talking about them being outside of recruiting class rankings. You cant be this dense. When people are referencing the #15 rankings with 22 signees, it CLEARLY doesnt include the transfers (or a walk on).
Again, the links provided clearly shows NO transfers as part of the 2018 recruiting class, it shows 22 signees/enrollees, which was ranked #15, and the discussion was on those specific players. If you want to join that conversation without bringing in a bunch of unrelated people, let us know.

this has to be a coordinated message about Burrow, specifically (esp in light of how much of a disaster the 2018 class has become)
hopefully this is optimism from O and his fat friend about Burrow's prospects this year

NO, WE ARE NOT.
thread title:

Doesn't say a word about rankings.

You can't try to change the purpose of this conversation every two pages to try to get it to match your stupid argument.

Well it should. I just posted a crap-load of links that say they do and that was just off the first page of a google search. Seems like EVERYBODY that knows anything about recruiting and signing classes disagrees with you.

Did you happen to miss my many quotes and links? The one about Fehoko as told by an LSU compliance officer? He said he counted towards the 2017 class. He is not on the 247 recruiting ranking list but he counted towards the 2017 class. Did you miss the link about West Virginia counting the Bama transfer as a signee for their class?
If you did, there are a WHOLE lot more. Like I said all of the stuff I posted was on the first page of a search and I didn't even look at the Advocate and some other articles.

which recruiting sites list transfers with recruits in their yearly rankings? can you link them for me?
for example, the 2019 LSU Class on 247 has the recruits and another section for transfers
ESPN has nothing
Rivals has nothing
so if 247, LSU, and Rivals all list the classes without transfers, why would anyone be talking about transfers when discussing recruiting classes?

Their lists are for recruiting Rankings ONLY. Grad transfers already count for someone else's class when they initially signed.

Quote from Blair Napolitano, LSU's Assistant Athletic Director for Compliance.
"For instance, DT Breiden Fehoko, who transferred to LSU from Texas Tech after the 2016 season, counts in the Tigers' 2017 signing class from last February."

What does that have to do with the rankings?

None of which were to the 2018 recruiting class specifically and only, but articles and this and that and added in transfers, etc...
The 2018 recruiting class has been posted for you many times, but you have chosen to ignore it:
247
Rivals
Let us know when you can actually get on the same page as the rest of us.

On the actual topic of this class, I see Dantrieze Scott as the lowest rated guy in the class and people were upset when I called him a questionable take at the time. They wanted to compare him to the guy we just got on signing day this year.
Except that we got him committed 8 months before signing day.

2018 was loaded with questionable takes in the end, hence why only 2/3 of the class is left at this point 1 season in

"Trust the coaches. Even if they were already the ones that recruited the classes you bitched about earlier in this thread"
-TigerRee, probably
ETA: But yeah, there were definitely some guys in that class that were headscratchers when they committed and are already out of the class. It's always funny when you don't even need hindsight.

Nothing, I was simply answering this question. Try to keep up:
"why would anyone be talking about transfers when discussing recruiting classes?"

Oh. Well then what do transfers have to do with a recruiting class? Especially in the context of this thread, which you seem uniquely unable to grasp?

Yep, sure is. When a class has 8 starters including two team stats leaders and four other that played enough to burn their redshirts. It doesn't take a lot of hindsight to see this class has produced and continues to do so.
And when only 3 draft eligible underclassmen declare for the draft it does not take hindsight to see why the lowest rated players from the latest signing class are leaving the program.

Is this supposed to be some sort of measure of the quality of the class?

Jesus. I wonder how many of you would argue with their Grandmama about how to scrabble an egg, lol.
