This is why I'm not a fan of kicking kids out. We lost on players that wanted to be a Tiger and now lose two committed kids and Burch. Evans is far from a guarantee, I think it's aTm. Either way it's a very good class.
So far 3 negative things have happened today, and no positive things in terms of flips our way or players on the fence deciding LSU. From that perspective only, extremely disappointing day.
I hate to miss some of these guys but probably not wise to sign 25 in December. Need room for portal transfers and February signees. It’s a great class if these last two sign.
Oh it's definitely a positive. The leg work that was done was tremendous to get us to this point. We are only referencing the events of today specifically. What could have been was not even close. And if we lose Evans to ATM, then the excitement of this class, as good as it is, is gonna be tempered greatly. In a year like this, if you can't knock it out the park like Bama and Clemson or even Ohio State, then you probably never will.
Well. Some of these kids “flipping” in the past flipped to Bama. I am ok losing a few WRs tbh. We are somewhat deep there, though would have been nice to be fucking stacked. I see us using the TE a lot more lol.
Using 247 ratings, there is no statistically significant difference between the top 5 in terms of quality of players signed, Clemson, Bama. tOSU, LSU, Georgia. We can be concerned by the size of the lcass, but, in terms of quality, we are in the group.
To me, when we lose kids, I think it matters where they go. Out of conference isn’t that huge of a deal. UGA stings a little, but as far as I know, we didn’t lose any battles with Bama.
