Let's say Jones transfers in, what do we do with the 25th spot?

Jones would be our 24th spot in this years class.

What are some potential options for transfers for the 25th spot?

CB, TE, or OL would make sense, or do you just shop around and get the best player available no matter position? Or would we just go with a lower level project player out of HS that's still available?

No matter how it shakes out this is a stellar class

Take a TE if the staff sees one they believe will make an impact here, or an OL that could be good enough to start next year. The latter is unlikely because anyone that good will want to start THIS year snd all of our starters return. The staff isn’t going to give away someone’s job like that.

If neither of those happens, hold the spot for an EE next year. Then we can take a transfer OL if needed without losing one of our 25 for the year. We could have 0-2 OL starters returning in 2022, so a guy who can step right in could be more important than any other need we have today.

Since suddenly it seems that we CAN sign over 25....seeing as how Bama has done it 3 years in a row at least...
then unless we find a transfer we are eligible to take and hes better than what we have (aka Mike Jones) I say we hold it over to a loaded 22 class

It's hard to see an IMPACT OL player who is looking to start immediately transferring to LSU with LSU returning all 5 OL from last year (unless O does what he did with Burrow and essentially promises the transfer the starting job ahead of someone already on the roster...even if that promise isn't announced publicly)

TE is probably the spot where a transfer could most likely come in and start immediately. But I wouldn't take a guy who wasn't very good just to fill a need.

If there is a good underclassman out there at any position who is willing to start behind others on the depth chart and try to fight for playing time, then you consider it. Otherwise, just hold the scholarship over for next year.
