McGlothern also recruited by OSU said on a couple of interviews he answered listing his serious contenders he would forget some teams but never LSU. The final lean indicator (not commit) for me occurred when Dwight mentioned in a recruiting posting that, "I can see myself fitting into LSU's CB system." He never said that about OSU or any of the finalists. That statement was made along the time line of late Feb when his biggest drop in rating started. Just my personal take.

Jeffery Okudah CB OSU is out of South Grand Prairie HS (Dallas area). OSU recruits TX a ton and so I follow TX CB's

247 Gabe Brooks initially had JoJo Earle as a low 5-Star but once LSU got into the mix his rating slowly dropped as JoJo began to lean LSU. JoJo's current rating is something like 95 or 96. Brooks has his profile as almost too small for college football.
Check out Clemsons 2020 RB Demarkcus Bowman a kid OSU also recruited. List 5'9 191lbs he's closer to 5'7 180lb which doesnt matter he's a great athlete. JoJo Earle is taller and heavier, read both profiles and projections.
My point is to just point out that LSU's signees rating are likely higher than stated. LSU got a commit from Landon Jackson, also recruited by OSU, 4 months ago rated 247 98 5-Star he finished the season with over 110 tackles and 17 sacks, 17 sacks recently off a knee injury but now is rated barely 95, A&M was battling with LSU.
I do annual CB eval's just as a general football aficionado.
Not much into the DBU thing or HS player ratings in general.
But note ratings ARE diffinitely tied to Preseason Power 5 rankings and therefore is tied to how ref's call games (in general).

Advice, take your ratings for McGlothern with your dates and cross reference with McGlothern's college visits (Posted on 247). McGlothern's ratings began to drop after home visit with Ala, than A&M, continued to drop after Georgia (UO), nearly bottomed out after second Georgia (UO) and after the Under Armor game (2 INT and 1 pick 6 against all 5-Star players) finally bottomed out at current 87 rating.
Biggest drop was after second Georgia visit. Projection for McGlothern is at most Power 5 player 247 Gabe Brooks. Whether dots can be connected or not I don't know but it looks bad for one or two SEC coaches and Gabe Brooks. The point is Coach Smart a few days ago commented on neg. recruiting against Georgia and the SEC. Could neg. recruiting ratings be happening to recruits, esp. LSU recruits?
