re: Recruiting Myth: O is bringing in recruits like never before

We’ve lost 7 not 6 and had 13 players drafted which is elite. Last year might’ve been a school record and all of those players were Miles recruits. So what you’re saying isn’t true at all, we’ve had a ton of guys drafted. You still haven’t provided any facts to back your position so I guess it is “easy” when you just use made up talking points false statements and opinions then claim they’re facts.

Those players were still part of those classes. What happens after that is another story. You surely don’t knock 0 for running off the only 2 5* lineman we had and the only natural left tackle on the roster yet you’re using that line of thinking to do it to Miles. Typical

Nice work with the facts in this thread

For as much as people loved to talk about Miles recruiting guards and converting them to tackle, Orgeron is having trouble recruiting elite tackles. They don’t exactly grow on trees.
That does seem to be an achilles heel right now.

Which two players are these? Teuhema left on his own because of academics.

I never mentioned Miles.
You said Eaux inherited a loaded roster and I posted a tweet by LSU's 24/7 head guy who said before last season that only 32 of the signees from the 2014, 2015 and 2016 remained on the roster.

Oh he provided facts you just refuse to acknowledge them. No need to gear up for an argument because this will be my last post concerning you.

He inherited a roster who was pre season ranked 5th the year he took over and has had a record for draft picks at this program over the last 2 seasons.

What facts? That we aren’t having players drafted? We’ve had a school record the past 2 seasons. Or that we’ve lost 6 games the last 2 years when we’ve lost 7? Or the fact that he’s making a guess at how many players will be drafted this season and calling that a fact as well? Not one statement he made was true.

It’s been a problem for a while along with QB. Hopefully Rosenthal works out.

I think the recruiting is going fine. Of course it is what you do with the talent later. That is where the rubber meets the road.
I hope Coach O can make the changes for LSU to be successful. So far he has done that.

Wire looks promising as well.

Who’s not happy about the recruiting? I think OP is just pointing out that it’s really no better than what Les was doing. We’ve still failed to sign a dominant OT.
That remains to be seen. In last year's class LSU signed two OT's. Badara Traore and Cameron Wire are both OT's. Cameron redshirted this year.
This guy who returns a fumble for a 74 yard TD was a highly rated OT when he was committed to Alabama. He is now back at OT and also redshirted last season. 18 second video of 74 TD
They have a signee for this class who is an OT. And the 4-star OL signee from Michigan played OT for his high school and has mentioned playing next to Kardell in college and I don't think he meant playing center.

Did he play much this year?
Posted on 2/1/19 at 11:45 pm to Tiger Ree
Traore was a JUCO transfer he wasn’t part of last years class

Traore was a JUCO guy and couldn’t get on the field even with piss poor play at tackle last year. Wire is largely an unknown.
I think Rosenthal is our best shot a developing a good OT, but again, he’s an unknown at this point.

Bradford is 355 pounds. He’s not playing tackle.

Signing talent and developing talent are two entirely different things. This has been both an O and a Les problem. Not much has changed.

According to the LSU website he played in every game this season.

Which is why I said "it remains to be seen". But to say LSU has not recruited OT's the last couple years is not true. Whether they are dominant OT's remains to be seen.

You don't know that. Deculus is 331 and Dare is 333. If they need him to play RT he may do just that.
