2026 Tristen "TK5" Keys 5* WR from Hattiesburg, MS commits to LSU

[Gocanes1990]

One thing I know about Miami. 5* skill players are not a thing.

Go tell that to Mark “Noodles” Pope!!!

I don't know where he was ranked as a 5*, but using an example from 8 years ago validates my post.

Lol we only (used to) get the bad ones

Has "legit chance here" ever ended with us landing the guy? I'm not talking about guys like Mauigoa or Scott, who we were always in the top 3 for.

Hearing "we're in the game" or "we have a legit chance" usually ends with "we tried but.."

Definitely not 5 star level

Would you have rather heard "We stand no chance"?

Thee of little faith we just need one bonafide ️ star WR to finally go our waythen the flood gates can open this could be the one

We have no QB stability to sell

This is on the nose. This is where real discussion about our QB recruiting philosophy’s impact on WR recruiting should be had. But I know this is CIS and we are def not ready for that level of intentionality or critical thinking. WRs don’t give AF about our OL

I still haven't gotten an answer on this from 3 years ago when budgeting for Emory became a thing. Easier to just show how many portal QBs get drafted than to have an actual discussion.

Love how Tennessee & bama was his top 2. But now he's always been a tiger apparently
