So you switched two WRs to DB?
Everyone knew that Ricky would be a DB. Again, we took two WRs in 2012, TWO.
Thus, your comparison LSU WR recruiting is poor.
I'm not sure what you are trying to defend or rationalize. It's clear that A&M is taking talent. There's nothing wrong with that. LSU has done this many times, especially with DBs. Bama takes OLs like they are going out of style. Sometimes, you take the best guys on your board regardless of the position they play. In the end, however, it does somewhat inflate the perceived value of the class.

What do you even mean? So, if A&M sign 5-5* WR, they shouldn't all count towards the perceived strength of the class? Even if A&M signs the 2 best LB's in the state, the 3 best DT's in the state, and likely the top 2-3 best CB's in the state, those 5-5* WR would hold it back? Not to mention only needing one more commit on the Oline to take all of the top targets at the position this state is offering.
The frick are you saying?

The argument we're disputing is this one, made by other LSU posters:

It also isn't a hard concept that you can't just recruit WRs well and be consistently successful. Thats the point (I hope) he was making
Over the last three years, we've recruited 15 players for essentially 4.5 positions (4 WR and 1 TE). Considering that 4 of those guys are already gone, and our offense is so pass-heavy, how is it even remotely odd that we now have 1 WR and 1 TE in the current class?
In fact, we're probably going to add another 3 WR to the haul before we're done. And that will be entirely reasonable.
And if the point was that we are ONLY recruiting well at WR.... well, Myles Garrett and Daylon Mack say "Hi"
