-- Saban said they're happy with the way this class turned it. This started three years ago. there was a long list of people he thanked.

Was reported he was smiling.

quote:

-- Saban said he didn't even know the recruiting class rankings.
quote:

-- Saban said they try to get as many players from the state as possible. There's no number goal specifically.


quote:

-- On recruiting Louisiana: Saban said the state has great talent. He said they've had players from there do well here (Landon Collins, Cam Robinson, Tim Williams, etc.) so recruits notice that and see it can be done.
Bama got 5 this year.

Seems to be getting worse. If we kept those guys home this year, that would put us at number one and knock Bama out. Not a recruiting guru, but think that's about right?

Its OK, from what I have read lately the guys you got in place of the 5 for 5 we got are way better. So you should be good.

Doubt it. If he didnt get those guys, he would have replaced them with high ranking players from other states

LSU got a great class but its not even close to what Bama hauled in

They're counting the kid from Louisiana that played his senior year at IMG in Florida.

Should have been

" We got the process in place 'aight. Then we called the boosters....aight. Then we got the orders for the cars...'aight. Then the Chargers, Challengers and Tahoes were delivered, aight. The requisite payoffs, I mean, fees, to the out of state coaches...err.. consultants were made aight. Lots of hard work. It's a process."

Yeah, that. The kid that shall not be named lived in LA, right off the LSU campus, all his life. But he's really a Florida kid.

This post fits right into the perpetual conspiracy and excuse list LSU fans come up with. You left out where we travel to Birmingham afterwards and pop champagne with our alumni at the SEC Offices for properly setting up the schedules to our advantage and the bias officiating. Then send thank you letters to recruiting sites for giving us the Bama bump for each commitment.
