Would love for Sark to spunk in Kelly's eye by stealing this guy out from under him.

Have we ever gotten a kid from that high school on the LSU campus? Also how is that a thing?

I do not worry about recruiting under this regime.  Sark is a much better recruiter than Mack Brown was, who was overrated as a recruiter because he was unwilling to fight for 50-50 or longshot studs and took too much bread so he could brag about only making 28 offers and getting 25 commits.  That shit drove me crazy.

Wake me up in December when we sign another top 3 class.

In my opinion, it was his 2006 knee replacement surgery that stopped him in his tracks. It didn't go well and he was in a lot of pain afterward. He was a different man/coach/recruiter.   

His knee replacement in 2019 went much better.

Definitely.  He was more aggressive and more willing to battle pre 2006.  But still took too much bread.  Even the great 2002 class had too much bread

Was it the knee replacement or Rouse, Perriloux and Tellocity that caused him to stop fighting?

Awww, Horn Under A Bad Sign is a little sensitive Mack Brown message board warrior! Isn't that cute?

I was thinking about this over the weekend, but with the age of this board, how fucking big is immamac going to have to make the reactions for us to see them in the next 2-3 years?

I attended UT from 2008-2012 , thank you very much!

U-High started recruiting players 5-10 years ago (we were dogshit at every sport but golf - hi Patrick Reed! - while I was there) so they churn out 3-4 D1 football players every cycle now. Most do not go to LSU, but are also not at that level. LSU recently lost out on a corner to ND, when said player's father was an assistant AD at LSU in the 2000's (blanking on the names).

I’d have Adrian Peterson above him too


Maybe I'm not understanding what the list is supposed to represent. He accounted for 4200 yards and 42 TDs. Meanwhile Cedric Benson accounted for 6200 yards and 67 TDs.

Benson wasn’t a ranked #1 in his recruiting class.

Adrian Peterson's college career is massively overranked by most fans due to his success in the pros.  He was great as a true freshman and then had two pretty good seasons.  I often see him ranked as the best college running back from the Big 12.  Nope.  No way.  Several were better.  And both Ricky Williams and Darren Sproles were far better college backs.
