Have you not watched the circus going on with LSU this year? Criticizing O doesn’t make people a hater. It means they have common sense.

Tigersquid89, I wish we could see you take over missing 41% of you roster from 2019 and have NINE new defensive starters while trying to install a new defensive scheme after NO SPRING PRACTICE & a very limited Fall Practice. It’s amazing how stupid some of you chronic bitchers really are.

How is he #1 on Rivals, but not even a 5-star on any of the other sites? This is why recruiting is maddening. :lol:

That is very good news. I am sure the choice was difficult given the current state of affairs.
