Probably a little of offense, coaching, and recruiting. Rarely are things so cut and dry.

We offered WR Roc Taylor today. He's committed to Tenn.
Clemson offered Kamari Lassiter today.

Actually Kiffin and Sark opened that thing up but I get your point. And yes LSU was running dive left and dive right with 5* WRs

I get blasted on the rant, but I think LSU backed into last year. They will trend back to their mean.

A passing game in college is difficult to maintain. A QB typically needs a few years to develop physically and mentally. So you get 1 maybe 2 years to take advantage.

I agree. I think LSU had the 'perfect' storm with their offense last year like we did with Cam and that team in 2010.

So that's stopped UGA and aTm?
aTm had a pretty phenomenal passing attack, and Jimbo has a track record of having great passing attacks. Not sure what argument you are trying to make there. UGA, we'll see how long it lasts for their offensive recruiting. If they continue like they are, they will find similar struggles recruiting WR's unless the state has some studs.
quote:
Clemson runs the same offense we do, exactly the same not oh theirs is a little different, nope it's the same.
It's not, but you keep telling yourself that. Running game they are similar, though Malzahn is more Slot-T with gap blacking scheme, where the Clemson offense relies more on a zone scheme. Passing scheme wise though, they are not the same offense. At all. The come from the same tree, but they are vastly different.
quote:
Ole Miss has recruited WRs better then we have.
Ole Miss has had a better passing game than we have for the entirety of Malzahn's tenure, with success in the draft to match.
quote:
Never stopped LSU from getting elite WRs either
Nope, and their passing game has been pretty absymal until they changed the offense. So, doesn't this kind of burst your entire argument.
quote:
It's the recruiting not the offense. Craig didn't seem to have a problem recruiting elite WRs to the same offense.
If you think our passing game hasn't been a huge factor when it comes to recruiting, you are not paying attention. Though, i'm not really sure why we are even talking about this, because our WR recruiting has not been bad. Our issues are probably 65% passing scheme, 25% coaching, and 10% recruiting when it comes to WR's.

It will be a nice test to see with them, to see just how much a good passing scheme can improve your talent.

247 dropped Dematrius Davis 102 points from No. 93 overall to 195. Their reasoning is basically his passing is subpar and he's under 6'. Also said he struggled at UA Future 50 in January and said there was noticeable difference in arm talent between Davis and the rest of the field at the Elite 11.
He'll be a borderline 3* now if that matters to you.

Dropped him 102 spots in the rankings.
He’s #195 on 247 only, and #156 (from 121) in the composite.

He’s several hundred spots ahead of the nearest 3*

The other big drop was from Auburn commit Dematrius Davis. Davis dropped from No. 93 in the Top247 to No. 195. In hindsight, the 93 rating was probably a little high to begin with so dropping him is more a case of slotting him where he probably belongs.
The tough thing about dropping Davis is he has been exceptional on Friday nights leading Houston (Texas) North Shore to consecutive state titles. At the same time, if you’re a sub 6-foot quarterback, you have to be a high level thrower capable of making NFL throws and we just don’t see that with Davis. If you’re not Bryce Young or Kyler Murray, it’s tough with that size to be a high-round draft pick. You need to be super efficient throwing it.
Davis struggled when we saw him at the Under Armour Future 50 in January and although he improved at the Elite 11, you could still see a noticeable difference in arm talent from the other top quarterbacks. Davis is the ultimate gamer and it won’t surprise us if he has college success at Auburn.
He’s solid mechanically with a quick release and shows good pocket mobility. He needs to improve not just his arm strength but his accuracy and especially his accuracy on the deeper routes where he needed to wind up a little more to get the ball out.

Yeah I renewed with them for a year during their last sale, but I'm out if nothing changes with the way (or the who) they do their rankings. I can't keep paying money to idiots who can't keep their biases straight.
Caleb Williams.. 55% completion percentage in HS, finished outside the top 10 in 2 out of 3 days at the Elite 11, and finished 2 pts above Davis in one of the drills and he's still number 1 because of what he can do as a dual threat and how he uses his legs...

They’re relying a little more on the Elite 11 due to the lack of other things going on. It is what it is.
The ranking drop seems dramatic but if you look close they only dropped his rating from 93 to...92 Vandagriff, for reference, is 95.

Its not just Davis.. Its guys going to other schools too. Its just a pattern of them having clear biases. Like the example I just used.. Williams, despite not showing himself to be any better passer than Davis, keeps his spot because of his dual threat ability.. why didn't Davis dual threat ability afford him the same. The same thing is happening to a lot of other players.
I've been really down on their rankings for a while.. some of the people doing them, the way the project to the NFL instead of college etc.. If it wasn't for Keith I would have been gone a long time ago. I'll switch to another site and get roughly the same info though, so its not a big deal.

Apparently we are trying to recruit Isaiah Brevard (WR committed to Oregon) again, but he tweeted out his recruitment is shut down so who knows..
One thing I personally noticed.. KN and a lot of the insiders keep not mentioning Colzie when talking about WRs. I don't know if thats because they just don't have much info or if they think Auburn/Colzie are looking elsewhere.

It is interesting. KN said he just isn’t in the loop right now on Colzie

I saw that right after I posted lol. Same thread is saying Farrar might be transferring now as well, but I haven't seen anything else on that yet.
Edit- Its official now. Farrar is transferring. WR room starting to look a little thin..
