Loston is cleared

by Poseur on Aug 24, 2009 6:22 PM CDT in Recruiting

It's supposedly real this time, Loston is cleared and practicing with the team. The quote I love from The Advocate is this one:

With Loston gaining his eligibility, LSU's entire recruiting class, rated as the nation's best by ESPN.com, is academically eligible.

I'm not our recruiting guru. In fact, I sort of hate recruiting and consider it the necessary evil of college football. However, I truly hate how teams try and game the rankings and just try to win Signing Day, even though many of those big time recruits are never going to show up on campus. Let's just enjoy that phrase one more time: LSU's entire recruiting class, rated as the nation's best by ESPN.com, is academically eligible.

The full class matters. Welcome to Baton Rouge, Craig. Now get to work.

Getting the recruits to sign is only the first big step..

after that, you have to get them into school. After that, you have to teach them how to play. These days, everything seems to be geared towards maximizing step one.
