Nope. This thread is the result of a bunch of LSU fans posting thread after thread about how everyone is 'afraid' of this class, how Kiffin is 'lapping' everyone, etc., etc., and so on. It's been nonstop for the past few days. That's what this thread is about it. That not only are you not 'lapping everyone', you are lapping basically no one. And no one is 'afraid' of this class. It's a decent class, but no as impressive as 8 to 10 (depending on your metric) other teams' classes.


Kiffin isn’t done yet…

And should you care, Kiffin at OM never even so much as sniffed a top 10 overall class and look what he was able to do at a perennial cellar dweller program.

Now that he has the keys to LSU and top 10 talent right out of the gate, I’m sure your astute recruiting analysis will stand the test of time about as well as all those Florida coaching hires over the last 16 years or so…

I agree, on top of that, they aren't even filling positions of need, just star chasing.

OL is a suspect while they take 2x portal QBs.

8th? I will take it.

Our incoming HS class was very lean and there was a good amount of kids leaving for what they see as greener pastures. 8th is good for me at the moment.

LSU had zero QBs. They took 3. Portal ain't over. Plenty of time to get OL.

He's done as far as 'lapping' anyone, as far as making anyone 'afraid'.

I mean, come on. Below is the current top ten classes going by average recruit ranking. Notice who's not even on that list?

Dude, why are you talking about recruiting when you don't even know that kids do not sign in July?

Not posting thread after thread about how everyone is afraid of our class? How our new coach is 'lapping' everyone?



But I'll tell you who else is not on that list.

LSU.

Who IS posting thread after thread about how everyone is afraid of their class. How their new coach is 'lapping' everyone.

Wish in one hand and shite in the other, see which one fills faster.

If it’s so obvious LSU’s class isn’t as good as billed, why do you feel the need to litigate it until you’re blue in the face?

Not a bunch. It was just the handful of the usual suspects. Sorry you were offended by it. You shouldn't have been.

Guess you were gone for the few weeks prior. When thus board was flooded with Ole Miss, Bama and UGA fans starting silly little threads. The pro-LSU threads, started by the usual suspects, were response threads. Once again, sorry you were offended. You shouldn't have been.

Yes, I figured we'd have a much better HS class after most of the guys who recruited them got fired and our coaching vacancy getting tossed around just before signing day.

I don't pay attention to recruiting much anymore given the portal and how it's changed things, but you really questioning the one person that told this entire board how the season would play out back in early September?

quote:

ChatGPT disrespects Indiana as well, everyone's going to find out on Saturday when they beat the brakes off Illinois. Mendoza's arm talent is ridiculous


quote:

Mendoza is one hell of a QB, team is very well coached and the defense is extremely complex. People here are braindead and will think it's a joke, but it won't be shocking if they win the title. Mendoza has to go #1 overall, he's the best pure passer to come out in years


quote:

Texas Tech is outscoring opponents 154-0 outside of garbage time...what's the formula for this garbage? Also FWIW Indiana is the most complete team in the country


quote:

Thread shows who actually watched that game, Oregon showed quite a bit of vulnerability against the inside run vs NW tbh…and Dante Moore will be elite, but he got completely fooled by the random Tampa 2 thrown at him and was picked, I’d expect other disguised coverages to have a similar effect

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but give me the winner of Florida State-Miami. Oklahoma would be the other obvious choice, but idk if Mateer can get away with how careless he is with the ball at times for 3-4 playoff games


quote:

LSU will end up 8-4. 0% chance they win @ Bama or @ OU and Nuss will lose them 2 other games with how careless he is with the ball Vandy is a legitimate dark horse. They'll lose at Bama, but only need to go 3-1 against LSU/Mizzou/Auburn/@ Tenner, which seems very manageable


quote:

Beck, Mateer, and QB survivors of Texas Tech@Utah and Indiana@Oregon. Pavia is also a decent longshot. Simpson has the talent/will have the numbers, but idk if Bama will have the record

That's the heisman, both teams in the national championship, pavia almost winning the heisman AND LSU falling apart all in mid september
