This is why being a top tier (by reputation) recruiter is meaningless if you can't get a staff to develop those players.

O's classes have been atrocious when it comes to that, and it isn't a surprise. He goes after high star ranking recruits and ignores things like fit and need. That is why 2019 was nothing more than a flash in the pan for him and we are now seeing that mediocrity to slightly above that is his long term ceiling.

You will always have misses on the recruiting trail, but to have the number we have is absolutely amazing.

There is no "Process" at LSU, that is clear.

Looks like a bust and this is part of our problem. Coaching is the other part of our problem.

Stingley's a disappointment? GTFOH


Exactly. Stingley could've never played another game after the Clemson game and I would deem him a success for recruiting. Anything that he adds going forward is lagniappe.

The four and five star players from the 2018-2019 classes:

5*
Terrace Marshall - impact player
John Emery - no impact
Marcel Brooks - transfer
Derek Stingley - impact player

4*
Kelvin Joseph - transfer
Jamarr Chase - impact player
Jarell Cherry - no impact
Chasen Hines - starter
Travez Moore - transfer
Micah Baskerville - starter
Davin Cotton - transfer
Badara Traore - no impact
Dare Rosenthal - transfer
Kenan Jones - transfer
Chris Curry - transfer
Damone Clark - starter
Kardell Thomas - no impact
Trey Palmer - no impact
Maurice Hampton - transfer
Siaki Ika - transfer
Ty Davis-Price - starter
Ray Parker - transfer
Donte Starks - transfer
Devonta Lee - no impact
Anthony Bradford - no impact
Peter Parrish - transfer
Raydarious Jones - no impact

27 players. 12 transferred, leaving you with 15 possible contributors. 8 provided no impact, leaving you with 7 contributors. Out of those 7, you had 3 actual impact players. A dreadful success rate in identifying talent.

I just listed our top 12 recruits from 2019 class, and 90% of them haven't done shite

bruh, they don't offer THEMSELVES scholarships, so who should the blame for atrocious recruiting fall on?

How the hell can you say Stingley is a disappointment? He’s an all American. Y’all are terrible fans

2.) 5* CB Stingley: Great freshman season, not so great SO season, and now he's injured for lord knows how long


It always amazes me just how moronic people can be on this forum. The guy never gets targeted and will go in the top 5 of the draft.

What part is moronic?
Great Freshman season? it was

Not so great Sophomore season? It was about half of previous year due mostly to an injury.

Injured for lord knows how long? This is a fact. He has played this year for 3 games and now is injured for an unspecified amount of time.

Most of the people posting considered Stingley one of the only successes. The post was about the whole class with the consensus being he has been the only real success for us out of all of them.

His play bared dropped off (if any) last year. He was rarely targeted compared to 2019 when he was playing opposite an All-American and had the Thorpe winner playing deep. I guess Ricks is "off" too because no one will throw at him.

Yep.

Can’t help but wonder what these very same recruits would have done under Saban in the Alabama program.

THANK YOU. YOU GET IT. I'm a die hard fan, love Stingley AND root for every player we have, even if they're not great. Some dumbasses can't comprehend or analyze a sentence.

Speak for yourself. You clearly can't comprehend. Where did I say Stingley was bad?

I'm laughing at you

O has had quite a few not work out. Especially on the o line. I hope this new o line coach can develop players bc it seems Ingram and deculus have regressed

Man I was so excited about Kardell as a recruit. The first 3 all have had issues staying healthy which has hurt their development and impact as well.
