re: Locking up the state of LA

no but there are teams with 3 stars winning NC.

Obviously some guys are going to get overlooked and you have to keep your eyes out for them.

Justin Jefferson
CEH
Neil Farrell
Damien Lewis was a 3 start coming out of JUCO
Lloyd Cushenberry
foster Moreau
Debo Jones

We’ve had some really good player who weren’t super highly rated.

Don’t bank on them but you can take them if you like them.

This day and age yea, that's pretty well locked up. There won't always be 15 that can make it at LSU to begin with. Then there aren't always national recruits at some positions every year.

This year we missed a few, but it's about as locked up as you can get, and all of the ones you didn't get didn't all go to the same school.

2 top 10 classes and #13 won 1 national title out of the last 20 NC. 19 NC that were won with blue chip athletes at elite programs doesn't prove you can win without elite recruiting.

Top 10 classes aren't full of 3 stars.

bullshite! I just used Michigan as ONE example. 2010 Auburn NC...last classes preceding that year. #9, #11, #17, #23. 2016 Clemson NC....last classes preceding that year #20, #14, #16, #9. Those were the 247 sports composite total rankings for those classes....all in the last 20 years.. So cut the crap, guy, and do your research instead of just spewing fiction! I didn't even check the other NC winners in the last 20 years. And BTW, there are classes NOT in the top 10 rankings of recruiting that are NOT filled with 3 stars...LSU has had them and so have other teams.

I guess two years ago we should’ve signed 3 QBs, just so we could “lock up the state”

Our No. 1 rival has been beating us with players from out of its home state. It got a championship quarterback from Hawaii, for god's sake.

With Texas' money, they could have bought the complete top 15 in their state. But Sark learned from Saban. You have to supplement your recruiting class with national recruits.

So 3 since 2000?

Lsu,usc,bama,uga,Ohio state,florida ,Oklahoma ,clemson's 2nd title, Michigan and Miami had elite classes (top 10 or 12 classes)

22 of the national titles have been won with elite recruiting... multiple top 10 classes

And again top 10 -12 classes ARE NOT littered with 3 stars.... your outlier teams in no way prove you can win titles loaded with 3 stars... but hey keep thinking you can.

Michigan wasn't a good example... they had multiple top 10 classes not littered with 3 stars. But hey keep being wrong...


I can't believe I'm actually having to argue with people that you need elite talent for elite results. The rant never ceases to amaze me.


I agree you don't have to have all top 5 classes.

No need to be a dick... I checked your post history and you seem like a good poster...
We probably just disagree on what constitutes an elite class.

quote:

9 of the top 10 is locking up

Literally not possible with the other guys we signed

Jahkeem Stewart is the only real miss, but lol at paying him 2M/yr

I said top top 10-11 is elite.
Michigan top 10 class in 2022

Michigan top 10 class in 2020



Literally 22 of the last 24 nC had elite recruiting classes and 2010 auburn had one of the best college qbs of all time.

Again, I can't believe I'm having to educate our football ignorant fans that you need elite talent for elite results. I can't believe I'm having to explain that there is a reason coaches try to have the best talent ie the best classes. Why didn't saban just recruit in the top 20 range? I can't believe im having to explain that there are no teams with tons of 3 star starters that consistently win and play for titles.
But hey keep being stupid.

K keep thinking the outlier is the rule. I can't help you.I wonder why all these great programs are doing their best to have elite classes when they can just go your route and have a bunch of 3 stars win titles...
Even if I gave your dumbass Michigan
I wonder how bama,uga, lsu, florida, Ohio state,Oklahoma and Miami won 21 of the last 24 national titles.... with elite recruiting.

Leanr how outliers work or continue to be football ignorant.
Spank emote....


Eta: none of those classes are full of 3 stars....


My initial post.....

There are no teams full of 3 stars winning anything of note in cfb.

Keep being wrong.

quote:

LSU is NOT full or have a bunch of 3 stars...your first LIE.

I never said this dumbass. I said teams full of 3 stars don't win anything of note in cfb. At no point did I shite on lsu's class....
Get a fricking grip dumbass.

Once again, you didn't mention the ones who got NCs WITHOUT being in the top 10 recruiting. You mentioned 21 out of the last 24. I

The Michigan classes YOU linked aren't full of 3 stars.

Apparently you can't count because ALL programs have 3* players

Never said programs that win titles don't have 3 stars on the rosters.... do I need to post my initial post that decided go respond to?

I said......

There are no teams FULL of 3 stars that win anything of note.

But by all means keep strawmanning... I was hoping you're dumbass would realize you're arguing against something I never said.
You might be the only poster to ever argue against strawman and lose than argument. The Michigan classes YOU posted WERE NOT full of 3 stars.


I tried to squash this by saying we probably have a different opinion on what constitutes an elite class since what I said was teams full of 3 stars. You then went on to mention 2 other teams that weren't full of 3 stars to act like you won some argument.

Keep thinking teams without elite talent can get elite results.
And frick your user name... youre just some football ignorant poster that doesn't know where the 7 technique lines up or what the 5 route is without Google.

Spank emoji....
