Wrong board but no. Class will finish in the 12 range. Joseph already is included in our rankings and LSU is expected to sign another 3 star if Goodrich falls through which it looks like it will happen.

Probably will fall somewhere between 10-15.

Not bad, but lower than expected when Ed took over. Next year's class will make or break him. LA is loaded in 2019 and with Mullen to Florida and Fisher to the Aggies, our top competition now all have head coaches capable of pulling people from LA. If the fence goes down in 2019, it will ultimately spell doom for Orgeron.

2019 class is unbelievable. Could win a championship with those kids with what we have already. Cain, stingley, bush, thomas are just half of the big time talent in Louisiana

Probably in the 8-10 range, serious discussion about keeping scholly for 19 if Goodrich goes to Clemson which looks possible.

Same was said when Sumlin went to the Aggies and the three-time defending Big10 champion coach went to Arkansas.

No it wasn't. Les had skins on the wall already and he and Frank proved they could pull kids from all over the country.

Stop making shite up to prop up Ed Orgeron.

That's very probable at this point.

Sumlin went to A&M from Houston and I don't know if people were terrified that the coach from Wisconsin would all of a sudden start establishing a large footprint in the southeast. On other hand, Mullen and Fisher have recruited SEC territory for a long time. Fisher, especially, has shown he can recruit the region at a high level. Does that mean LSU's recruiting collapses? Of course not. But it's very disingenuous, or maybe just naive to think Fisher and Mullen (at Florida) aren't bigger threats that Sumlin and Belima when they first arrived at A&M and Ark.

If Ogeron can't recruit at a very high level then what good is he to the program? He isn't a play caller or coordinator on either side of the ball. The only reason he's ever gotten any job is because of his recruiting ability. If he can't lock up the significant in-state talent in 2019 then he should be gone. If he can't recruit then what the hell does he bring to the team as HC?

Not the case at all and I didn't mention the head coach.

Sumlin was the original Tom Herman but unlike Herman his 13-1 season was in his last year before going to A&M. Because of his success at Houston he was thought to be a very underrated recruiter. He could just fly his helicopter into Louisiana and swoop up players LSU wanted. Didn't quite turn out that way.

Like LSU has done the last couple of years without Frank. Nothing has changed. The RB and OL coaches at LSU should have record hauls next year for LSU.

The #2 overall player in the nation, the #2 RB in the nation and the #1 OG for the 2019 class are looking very good and one has announced he is shutting down his recruiting and will try to get his good friends to join him at LSU.

Just wondering, so you're saying the statement you made was just an opinion.

That's not why he got the LSU job. You just make up shite on the fly don't you?

Yeah, who cares if LSU is successful on the field, huh?

Well he can recruit and also has a 10-4 record at LSU while having to play over 30 freshmen last season.

You can pretend it wasn't, but one of the main reasons he got the job was because people thought that (a) anyone can win 10 games a year with LSUs talent and (b) Orgeron could recruit well enough to maintain the talent. Surprisingly, Orgeron has proved both of those premises to be false in only one year.

Orgeron has shown no ability to lead LSU to success on the field.

10-4 got our last coach fired.

Hey man, it's okay if you are pulling for LSU to have a bad recruiting class next year. I love reading your and other's doom and gloom all the time. Be prepared to be very disappointed going forward.

I think most reasonable fans are preparing to be very disappointed going forward. At least until a change is made.

How could you possibly think that adding two five star guys and another highly ranked 4 star kid equals not a single jump up, let alone how you could possibly think they wouldn't at least make the top ten is quite dumb. They already are at 12, yet adding a top 10 overall guy, another 5 star and top 25 kid, and another top 100 kid means they don't give it a single slot???? Try actually thinking about what you say before saying it. Don't know much about you, but you've already proven to be at the very least someone not worth any time at all looking at in terms of recruiting knowledge....


Adding these 3 guys makes this class at the very least a top 10 overall class. And it's not even a question about the validity of that opinion.. God how dumb you just made yourself seem..
