I'm not going to worry about this until it actually happens. It would suck if all this did play out though.


My personal opinion on BK is he will probably go into earlier retirement than he expected. Like Saban, I don't think he likes the NIL era. He's doing a good job recruiting right now but he has passed over a lot of guys chasing money. LSU is getting a lot of players for less too selling other aspects like development for less money. It's not that LSU lacks money or backing, it's that BK decides who he wants and he's choosing less. I'm afraid this is not going to push you towards an avenue of championships in the modern era but they'll continue to give him who he wants.


I get why he does this and it's fine. He doesn't want toxic locker rooms. If their personality doesn't fit with him he's not going to allow them to chase money. Right now though, we're desperate at DT. We will not make the playoffs if they don't fix the defense. Offense will probably be good but it's not unrealistic to think it will be a big step backwards from last year. So while I understand why he does this it's also why you have such a large talent gap in certain spots on LSU's team. He needs to do better at finding a middle ground.

Sharing what? Nothing you provided was actual information - just weird opinionated blurbs that brought zero value.

Saying things like “Texas has a kid on campus and word is they’re not letting him leave without signing”

What even is that shite? Are they holding him in the underground basement with the gimp from Pulp Fiction?

It might've helped if he listed who the insider was on the other boards that said this. Like you said it just comes off as an opinion piece with no actual context to how relevant it is other than his word it came from an inside. Which insider? LSU has a lot of bad "insiders" that seem to be the last to know anything.

The portal is open for 6 more days… a lot more could happen in those 6 days. Especially with tampering being essentially legal now.

He literally copy and pasted this from a mod on on3. Which he should be banned from on3 for this. But it’s true

If you honestly believe NIL fundraising falls on the shoulders of the head coach, you are moron.

Before the sky starts to fall let's give Baker, Davis, Raymond and Olsen a chance to coach up what we got before you scream falure. Last year our defense lacked coaching, sceme, preparation and heart, I believe those

LSU not landing a starting DT is an absolute debacle. LSU needed to bring in TWO starting caliber DTs.

And just because a kid commits it doesn’t mean anything until he signs and now a days that means less than it used to.

NIL started june 2021 Ed O was fired oct 2021.

Other than blidi no target has done anything commitment wise.


People are scared because there is a Twitter video implying that Texas bought a lambo for one guy.

He hasn’t canceled any visits yet. He hasn’t made a commitment yet.
