re: My Early Portal Takes

Ambitious and unrealistic.
Currently, we are sitting at 95 scholarship players (69 on roster with eligibility left and 26 commitments) after the 4 announced transfers and before draft declarations and additional out-going transfers. Presently, that is 10 over the 85 roster limit.
It is safe to assume there will be at least two early entrants to the draft (Nabers and Thomas) and at least two more transfers (Harris and Chestnut). So 91. That will mean attrition of at least 6 more players before you add more commitments and incoming transfers.
In order to take 12 transfers as you suggested, LSU would have to shed 18 more players from the current roster.
It is apparent that this year's portal class will be much smaller than previous portal classes and the takes will be more strategic, quality over quantity.

They are expecting about 10 transfers out. We are going to have more people that leave for the draft early. We always have 1 or 2 head scratchers.

I didn’t say we would get all of them. I just said that these were either guys we should pursue or at least consider.
