So you mean LSU is in top 10 in recruiting when they got a HC with only 3 days before ESD and multiple coaching changes. Particularly on one side of the coaching staff? Also those coaches were doing double duty such as preparing another SEC team in 3 playoff games while trying to recruit?

I would say that is very impressive considering none of the other schools in the Top 10 had coaching changes.

Rankings don't mean shite. We had high rankings before with previous coaches but underperformed. It is how players are developed. I trust this offensive staff to have LSU offense way better than last year. Within a few years to rival '23 offensive team. Baker to have a defense similar to last year if not slightly better with a complementary offense.

Another foot in mouth post by someone who jumps gun and doesn’t have the facts - hello 2026.

Kiffin signed in what? A week before signing day? I can live with that ranking. Give him a full year to recruit then lets talk.

Can we agree that a class quality is ultimately determined by the product they collectively put on the field, vis a vis Indiana? You should refer back to this post next year at this time and see how you did. If you’re looking to cite data, you have the foundation to create data right here.

The problem is that folks twist data to tell the emotional story desired, yet never verify the supposition after the reality plays out. Then, they return the next year with new BS analyses, because their previous analyses were proven without merit, but they forget to remind everyone that last years claim was useless rhetoric.

You said so yourself… “the only rankings that matter”

You have 56 recruits and your average is below 90.

I wouldn't trade.

Someone else who doesn’t understand how averages work and how having more recruits brings it down. It’s cool if you have the opinion that you wouldn’t trade. You’d just be relinquishing the same number of 5 stars and 8 less 4 stars.

That honestly wasn’t even remotely a good one. Doing the “hahahah” actually emphasized how lame that joke was rather than helping like you thought…

Nice try tho.
