2025 DJ Pickett 5* CB from Zephyrhills Commits to LSU

Advertisement
I mean I get why the kid might not be gung ho to come back to visit for a game. Hes seen all he needs to see. We are going to go undefeated. We have a MAJOR need for CB help IMMEDIATELY so he will get immediate PT. We are showing him love. At this point..its just wait and see and hope he changes his mind. I dont know how much more we can pitch him.

Yea but Mario was pulling better classes with less wins
Not sure what is wrong with this years class
I have a feeliing opposing teams using fsu losing against us
I know nil is booming with the winning
Hopefully I’m wrong and we land at least picket
Who for almost two years we were told here if we win he will sign

What was our class ranking on November 1st 2023? Lots of us were ready to jump off a cliff last year because the class wasn’t anywhere what we were hoping for. Then, Mario flipped a couple 5 stars late and added another handful of premier guys and we were all high fiving on signing day. Let him cook.

The same people will be saying the same things about Mario's recruiting on November 1, 2025 and November 1, 2026 and...

I get what you're saying but even if we flipped Vernell Brown, DJ, and Elijah Griffin right this second, it would only move us up to 7th one point behind Texas at 6th.

We ended the last cycle with a few guys who were nowhere near our radar in November. I’ve just learned to trust Mario with this. Especially with our very positive season in the field. I’m not saying we’ll be a top 3 class but top 5 isn’t out of the realm of possibility

Win and they will come takes more than 8 wins. Wins don’t automatically mean better class. Most teams after winning championships see the recruiting bump the next year.

Miami sucked the first two years Mario was here. 8-0 doesn’t change what these kids have seen for their whole life.

Miami needs to win constantly, maybe win the conference for the 1st **** time might be a good start.

I wouldn't advise you to pursue a career in sales.

I have no doubt we will consistently be in the 5-10 range in recruiting yearly but depending on what kinda program yall are expecting us to be will determine what u are satisfied with

I posted in a different thread we aren’t recruiting at the same level as Georgia,osu, bama, texas and possibly oregon in the future. We are tier 2 or 3 and thats alot better than we have been since the glory days so its a great space for us

Interesting I seem to remember having a higher class last year than 2 of the teams you mentioned.

We're in that mix.

The difference is Cristobal is having to play catch up - Georgia, OSU and Alabama are established powerhouses. Texas are a year ahead and have all the money in the world and Oregon are, ironically, building off the great work Cristobal did there prior to arriving in Miami.

We’re clearly below that bunch but still in a great spot all things considered. 2026 i think we can really enter that tier
