When you say high caliber, there was no O'Cyrus Torrence or Kyren Lacey. But there definitely were athletes like Max Mitchell, Nathan Thomas, AJ Gillie, and Carlis Rubio. Athletes that have the attributes we are looking for, but need time to develop and not many major offers.
Cajun fans tend to look at the last two classes under Billy Napier and forget about the athletes that didn't come here as higher profile recruits. The only major recruit on the 2021 starting offensive line was Torrence. Max Mitchell had UL and Tech late. I created Carlos Rubio's profile on 247, he had an offer from Northern Alabama until UL and Troy offered him late. Brown wasn't heavily recruited until late in the game, until several SBC schools and Southern Miss jumped in late.
This class has isn't as good, or as large as the previous two but it's far from a FCS class.
