The secondary coaches, both Corey Raymond and Ron Cooper, are some of the best at identifying and developing talent. Moe Claiborne was a 3 star athlete, who developed into one the best corners in the league. Now you need stars obviously. Both Patrick Peterson and Eric Reid were high profile recruits coming out, as was current starter Tre'Davious White. But Raymond does a great job at developing the mid star guys into great talents. It's a mixture of finding and developing talent as well as having star power.

Thank you for the explanation. One last question:

I know CBs are important, but to stop a spread offense you basically need LBs that can cover WRs. Is LSU recruiting smaller but quicker LBs as well, or is there some coverage trick in Chavis's system?

Thank you for all the great responses, this is the most helpful SECR thread I have ever been a part of.
