Gilmore and LaCouture aren't especially talented guys
Gilmore was a 4 star and 7th rated DT
Lacouture was a 4 star and 15th rated DE

Pretty sure Herron was a 4 star too. I am honestly surprised not one of them made the combine. Herron was out with the suspension, so I could see that being a reason, but the other 2 should have invites based on performance and stats.

And once again, would you believe either one of them was especially talented? They had good motors but neither was a playmaker in their 5 years here. Recruiting rankings mean nothing after 4-5 years. Was Anthony Jennings really talented? He was a 4-star too.
Lacouture and Gilmore got by on great motors their last year here, neither one was out there dominating double teams or making quick plays behind the line. They were great at playing a lot of snaps and mopping up plays that continued to go on in the backfield for extended periods of time.

I think Herron was a 5 star DE, right?
