This is a bad take. He was one of the best CBs in the SEC this season, easily. He is definitely a high end elite level player.
He’s draft-eligible. If he was elite, he would be going to the NFL.

Plenty of players dont make the jump early because nobody is forcing them to. It's not always the case someone makes the jump early just because they can. McGlothern was elite last year for Ark too, why didnt he go pro? We could go on for days why didnt x player go pro when he was a high level player. Because you choose to stay in college doesnt meant you werent a high level player in your 3rd season.
Again, completely unbiased source (PFF) had him as the #4 graded corner in the SEC this season, that's elite. He's not just some guy with LA origins, he's a very high level SEC starter with many teams banging down his door.
Not to mention he's WAY WAY WAY better than anyone we currently have and there's zero arguing that. Our corner play was pathetic last season overall. People are excited for Zy Alexander like he was anything better than average/above average. That's how low of expectations people got at corner after watching last season, we wish we had him back because essentially everyone else couldnt stick.

Compared to our corners he is Deon Sanders. Can't lose him to Ole Miss.

I never said he wasn't. But there is also a market-rate for players and he's apparently asking for the "elite" slot. Ole Miss thinks he's worth that and others disagree, including LSU.
That's the world we are in. Whether LSU is wrong on this will depend on how he performs next year, and also who LSU gets in the portal at CB.

Sounds like he is going to Ole Miss.

Good for him, he's earned that. Dude was one of the best corners in the SEC last season. We'd be absolutely stupid to not entertain that considering that position is a joke right now here, he's from LA. It's an easy match made.
Letting him go to a rival we play would be absolutely dumbfounded stupid when he's an easy match made to play here back home at a HUGE position of need we just lost our only only remaining decent uninjured/unsuspended player to the portal to who finally found something he wasn't bad at (Ryan at corner).

Of course this is all based on reports/rumors. We don't know for sure why, or even if, he is going to Ole Miss.

At this point I would guess the speculation is just based off of the fact that he left BR without committing and headed to Oxford. He may still land with the good guys so we'll just have to wait and see.

is gooing all in on upgrading their D. They picked up 2 highly rated edge rushers, LB Chris Paul, multiple DBs and are trending for Walter Nolen.
Golding can recruit. If he improves as a DC, Ole Miss is going to be a problem.
So why isn't lsu?
They better get someone comparable.

Where is this coming from? I have only read a few posters post it on here without any sources.

I don't think Kelly is willing to overpay for anyone unless he thinks they are a game changer. We have 27 commits so only a limited number of portal spots. Maybe he thinks we got burned last season with Denver, Deuce and others. He also stated specifically he wants to build through HS not the portal. If he sees the right player for the right price I think we still make a move.
As teams pick up new commits and transfers there will be more players hitting the portal so the staff is likely trying to be patient for the right player to pop.

I just said they better have a backup plan to grab a comparable player.
Posted on 12/18/23 at 1:22 pm to Chalkywhite84
Is this been announced or more projected bullshite
Posted on 12/18/23 at 1:38 pm to LSUFanMizeWay
He just committed to Ole Miss via X.
I really do admire Ole Miss going all in this year. I think it’ll be fascinating to watch and see how their locker room holds up.

i feel like going all in on Jaxson Dart isn’t gonna pay off.

Welp! Committed to Ole Piss.
That escalated quickly!!!

Can any “insider” here tell me how badly we pursued this kid?
If he was a priority as much as I think he should have been then this staff has got to make changes ASAP.

Absolute disappointment from this defensive staff. I don’t care what you say, losing a LA kid to ole fricking piss is hilarious. Get them the frick out of here

Ole miss the new Aggies

He was a priority. The #1 priority in terms of portal players. It wasn’t about money, we just whiffed. It sucks.
