re: Are the top rated 5 star recruits really the best investment?

LSU has had bad luck with a lot of 5* players not panning out over the years.

So has Auburn. The only one in recent memory that was a true stud from day 1 was Derrick Brown.

There have been more "busts" at AU than hits as 5 stars. Guys like Calvin Ashley, Byron Cowart, Roc Thomas, Jovon Robinson, and Michael Dyer all flopped and transferred out or were kicked off the team.
