Exactly. Look at where we're recruiting, also. Colorado, Hawaii, Arizona, Florida, TX, Jersey, etc. Truly recruiting nationally. And these guys are busting arse. I think we're looking at a staff that, with a full year's time, can put together a top 10-15 class.

Yes.

The staff almost has the class ranked back to where it was when they were hired. The difference is it is filled with kids who will actually qualify and make it to the hill this fall or have the ability to hopefully contribute at some point during their stay on the hill.

JLS and Horton's commits weren't shall we say, of that quality.

Anyone ever find out who they went to see in Jersey? Someone asked RD on his twitter and he said it wasn't Clement.

Most likely one of these two guys:

QB

DB/ATH

Those are my best guesses as well but wasn't sure if any of the recruiting sites had said.

247 hasn't. They're acting odd about it like its supposed to be a secret or something. Not much of a secret however when the HC is tweeting about it.

Will LSU ever have a national brand like bama

Seemed like a legit question

I only saw what was said on the first page, in class so couldn't follow it. So not sure what it dissolved into, civilized discussion I'm sure...

I admit it was a shot at the obvious flame thread by coastie, but still... Obvious lsu fan admins are obvious

eta: which I'm sure, with this still being a mostly LSU fan message board, they were able to have a lot of RA's made toward it

Oklahoma got after Skipper hard.


Looking at 247, McClure is rated a 2star. How can a 2x Juco All American only be a 2star?


I'm over the star system, it's fun to look back and see how many Top 200 guys on the recruiting sites never get a sniff at the NFL.

Because he's a JUCO.

Yeah, but star proponents will say its all about the odds, more 3 and 2 stars, less 4 and 5 so of course the busts of 4s and 5s will stand out more, etc.

Really, the staff just needs to worry about finding players that can play, I would say so far they have done so or feel as if they have. HiV is saying they are reaching, but with Petrino you knew when he was like calling up Herndon on NSD and offering a scholly at 1:35pm...

I remember that everyone was convinced he was going to be a great one. Had crazy moves but was hurt so he didn't get any offers....or maybe he just wasnt an allstar and was a reach to fill the scholarship position, hell if everyone turned into an allstar it wouldn't be so special to be one.
