is Kalob Jackson not a top 12 player in the state? 247 shows him as the States 8th ranked player and 5th in national running back rankings.
Doesn't fit author's narrative so no.

U have no idea what you are taking about. Troll away. Probably a Dem believe everything media tells you to believe .

Why do we even have a recruiting board? All they do is announce commitments, which is done here on the reg. It seems stupid to allow trolling here and not also on the recruiting board. What is the difference? It's one click of a mouse.

There are a some incorrect statements that I’ve seen several posters make about ND and BK, so I just want to offer some insight from the ND side.
BK is not a bad recruiter. He was/is a good recruiter and was phenomenal with parents during in-home visits and was straightforward. Despite being a good recruiter, he was also a lazy recruiter at ND and cost us numerous studs (Chase Young, Zeke Elliott, Jordan Addison, Irv Smith Jr., Curtis Samuel, AJ Dillon) who otherwise would’ve gone to ND. Both things can be (and were) true.
The notion that “academics” handicap ND from a recruiting perspective are way overblown. Can we offer every kid that Bama and UGA offer? No, but if you have a 3.0-ish GPA and don’t bomb your SAT/ACT then you can get into ND as a football recruit. Of the 34 composite 5-star recruits, 27 have been offered by ND. Weis and Kelly got several kids into ND who had GPA’s below 3.0 in HS. Weis’ first class included a kid with a 2.2 GPA during the fall of his senior year of HS, and after Weis got fired, Kelly helped sign a kid with a 2.5 GPA out of a shite public HS in Jacksonville.
We have no clue if Freeman can handle being a HC. What we do know is that he eats, sleeps, and breathes recruiting. The same is true for all of his assistants outside of Tommy Rees. He has mentioned that the most important thing is “talent acquisition” - ie recruiting. BK’s 11 full classes at ND (not including ‘10 and ‘22) had an average ranking of 12th. Freeman doesn’t have to be as good of a HC as BK, and playing the odds, it’s unlikely that he will be. However, if Freeman is just an above average coach but recruits top 5-ish classes every year, then the program will theoretically be better off as there will be more NFL players on the roster.

BK should have been able to swing quite a few of his recruits from ND. He's just not very good at it
This is what you post when you don’t take even one minute to check LSU’s current class and just want to show who clueless, and ignorant, you are.
LSU’s top 5 rated commitments are all from out of state and highly ranked.
WR Jalen Brown from Miami
DL Deshawn Womack from Baltimore.
DL Jaxson Howard from Minneapolis
CB Daylen Austin from Long Beach, CA
DL Joshua Mickens from Indianapolis.

Yeah that must be why two of your biggest commits are about to decommit. All that sleeping, eating, breathing recruiting. I like where we’re headed with BK a lot more than y’all with freeman.

We never wanted these guys. Not LSU caliber

Your post history shows you a lot more obsessed with LSU than Bama. Pretty sad when your team is in the middle of the best dynasty run in the history of college football.

I’d like to know if you are actively just trolling this thread or you truly think what Kelly had done in only 6 months to turn the program around is actually bad.
You are acting like he inherited some well oiled machine. He’s pulling talent from all over and has nothing but rave reviews on the recruiting trail. This is such a weird melt by you based on zero factual info.

You posted an article by butt hurt media. I’m talking about actual families and coaches on the recruiting trail. What the frick is wrong with you?

Seems to be the best source for info considering you are saying he’s a failure.

I’m honestly not sure but it is a weird coordinated gas lighting campaign against him that hooks low info people like you in.

Well, his record against decent opponents more than adequately proves that.
