While I share some of this sentiment, I am
Not melting about a HS prospect. The fact Amos didn’t even visit is pretty bad. Both our starting corner spots are open and he could start here as a Louisiana guy. Raymond was brought in for recruiting so he has to be expected to land one impact portal player this offseason.

It’s inexplicable. Raymond was brought in to make an impact week 1. With the inability to get Grimsley to visit with FL sanctions looming and Napier fired is inexcusable.

Now with a LA kid in Amos shunning us for the limelight of Oxford or Tunica is too much to swallow.

You really think if NIL didn’t exist in college football that Amos would actually choose Ole Miss over LSU? lmao

It has nothing to do with Raymond’s recruiting skills there bud. It has everything to do with “either give me the money I ask for or you are wasting your time”

Raymond has been on staff for 2 days, and it’s his fault that he didn’t get a commitment from a kid who has never stepped foot LSU’s campus

So we sign floridas DB coach, Bo Davis, and Mizzous defensive staff and none of the kids follow to LSU. Nice.

The transfer portal closed on January 2nd.

Good Lord! Sunbelt Billy will be fired after the season, partly because of a losing season and partly due to NCAA heat, and the ENTIRE ROSTER will be in the portal.

These kids are taking the payout now, knowing they'll get another bag next year. These kids are seeing what's going on with the Alabama free agency when a coach is no longer there. They want some of that action, too.

Unfortunately for their bank accounts, Brian Kelly isn't trying to salvage a sinking ship like Napier is, and Brian Kelly ain't going nowhere.

Their entire roster sucks, but I guarantee the weak knees on here will bitch that we’re not taking any UF players from the portal

He’s down to LSU and Florida. I’ve been following this one very closely and A LOT of Florida folk think it’s LSU. That could just be their negative arse culture, but it’s something to watch for sure.

We can take some wrecked cars from Nicholls and SELA, slap some bondo on them and make them look like Lambos.

I read on the Bama board that the reason why Grimsley chose Bama was coaching stability. BK >>>> Sunbelt Billy on stability.

Would’ve been nice if he had been to campus before.

Not sure why anyone is on Raymond about this. He and Robinson are both fla kids who were close to going there originally

If anything the fact that we weren’t even on the radar to begin with justified BK in moving on from the previous defensive staff bc none of them recruited worth a shite.

That’s been fixed and you’ll see it pretty quickly.

Not the end of the world, but losing a quality player to Napier is not a good look.


Even worse look? Going to play for UF at this time

It’s amazing how people think Raymond is responsible for final offer/roster decisions.

The Exact same thing just happened to Bo Davis with the DL who went from Texas to Florida. Are you gonna get on his arse too?

Not yet, because Bo has unofficial visitors this weekend and looks like his 25 DL class will be a pick of the litter who’s who among the HS class.

Rest assured, we are here to hold these coaches accountable and should co to use to monitor their performance.
