LSU needs no more CBs unless someone like Bussey wants to come to LSU or unless some CBs from LSU enter the portal. LSU has 13 CBs which is more than enough and once again, I see a lot more talent there than you and some others do. On the DT front, it again depends on who if anyone gets moved inside. I would be shocked if Paris Shand doesn't end up at DT and he is a good player. S Jones will get passed up if he stays outside because he simply isn't fast enough to play on the end. Thus, I would expect him to go to DT also.

Very good points and I hope to the good lord himself you’re right. I have a good feeling we’ll bring in a couple experienced DT’s during the next portal opening. We’ll be fine

Last year I thought they would bulk Wiggins up and put him inside, but they didn't. This year I'm hoping they do it with Shand or Jones.

So I agree DT is more alarming, but if we are counting on Alexander to be CB1… he’s going to be coming off a knee, just sayin.

We do have bodies at CB. If we want to contend in 2024 we are definitely going to need big news at DT. We have the right guys in charge of that, but unfortunately I think it’s reasonable to say 2025 is probably the year.

New coaches everywhere, concerns over defensive depth (again), 1st year starter at QB. Would love to be proven wrong in ‘24, but we could do much worse than expecting to compete for a natty in 2025.
