In this story, numbers on each recruiting class. One that stings? The 2015 class, where 39% of the signees have already transferred or been dismissed.
From the 2014-2016 classes, only 32 signees (44%) remain on the team right now.

What's the breakdown of 2015ers who left before/after firing Les and replacing with O?
Posted on 4/18/18 at 10:05 am to Tiger Ree
So does this somehow excuse O for an average recruiting class?

Les’s classes were overrated

Les Miles fired as head coach of LSU 9/26/16
Ed Orgeron named LSU's next head coach 11/25/16
Chidi Valentine-Okeke transfers 12/16/16
Andy Dodd plans to transfer 2/22/17
Willie Allen headed to JUCO 6/23/17
Seth Stewart will not enroll at LSU 7/30/17
Maea Teuhuma suspended indefinitely 8/2/17
seems to me that has Les to do with the previous coach, and more to do with the current.

2016-present: Miles classes overrated, roster in shambles, holes everywhere. We’re young. 8-4 would be great.
Oh and tough schedule

It’s rather routine for players to leave after a coaching change. If history is any indicator, most of these guys will amount to nothing.

These 3 are the ones that stick out to me. Talking about not only all starters or eventually starters here, but 3 really good players.

so then you are saying that theres no reason for anyone to try to cast blame on the previous coach for O's current roster management? because thats what normally happens, right?

Someone is finally looking at the facts of recruiting. Thank you, Tiger Ree
Shea Dixon is part of the problem for the LSU fan base.
