One key to building a successful college football program is years of excelling on the recruiting trail, and LSU is the perfect example of that.
After Tigers head coach Ed Orgeron enjoyed plenty of success bringing in top recruits, those results paid off this past season as LSU won its first national championship of the College Football Playoff era. The Tigers not only did that, but they also went 15-0 and dominated most of their competition.
However, college football doesn't leave much time for celebration. Shortly after the national championship game, Orgeron and his staff had to refocus on trying to add some top recruits to its 2020 class.
