Close of Early Portal Update: Highlights/Wants/Needs
There's more to the LSU Brand now than ever before.
Within one year this new Staff has gotten LSU to the point of being serious contenders for ANY player who enters the Transfer Portal at ANY position. With the exposure/success from the CBK hire, the rest of the country has begun to realize that LSU means way more than DBU.
ILB Omar Speights makes for a damn fine finish to the Early Portal Window. I love the LB room now. In a perfect world young Mr Ashanti Cistrunk SR 6-1 230 from Ole Miss would join up and fit right in, too.
But with Speights/Webb/the West baws/ and HP40 you'll never get a tired step.
The OLign is talented and versatile but injuries happen and we have sheer numbers that need to be replenished. An experienced starting Center from a P5 is what many have been clamoring for since the "Ivy League Experiment" so rudely got pushed on it's arse. Tigers have offered:
Jakai Clark C JR 6-3 305 Miami so maybe he's that guy. (For the record - I think that guy is Marlon Martinez)
Even if young Mr Clark ain't all that - we need to replace at least 3 of the big boys that moved on.
Other folks here are more sure of the Safety room than me. I'm of a mind that an experienced Safety can be added even if Toviano moves there and is a natural. If CBK's pattern holds we have already done a deep dive on;
Jaxen Turner S JR 6-2 210 Arizona. "Turner started in 11 games this past season for Arizona and tallied a team-high 79 tackles, along with two interceptions (UA had four as a team), three pass breakups, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries." He's a top 5 Safety in this cycle.
I didn't pay all that much attention to the QB, RB, & WR rooms for this cycle simply because I think the Tigers are talented and deep enough at those positions. As far as I'm concerned, Aaron Anderson was just added to make the roux perfect.
What ya'll got?
Edit: Removed paragraph regarding Nick Jackson committing to Auburn day after Omar Speights signed with LSU.

Jackson then took the bag and headed for the LA Plains
He's still uncommitted isn't he? (Or were you referring to him taking a visit?)
Billy said we're hoping for a visit next week, so I suppose there's still an outside chance.
ETA:
It was Billy not Shea. My apologies.
