re: 2026 #1 overall prospect Jahkeem Stewart from Louisiana

This is great but LSU needs to start identifying players on the DL. Not only that but we’ve had several top prospects with crazy numbers and athleticism not work out. This is where Bo Davis comes into play. Bo Davis either gets the absolute best out of a player like this OR he will replace them the next season. He doesn’t mess around with these guys and that’s what we’ve been missing. Someone to really push these guys to play their best the second they get on campus. Not waiting until their junior season to break out. He will also go get guys from OOS who might not be on radars but he can see will be great for the future of our DL. He does so many things at an elite level.

I love this defensive staff. It’s going to make our defense one of the best in the country not just the SEC. We have guys who can get the best in the country to commit at their position, identify who’s just ranked high and who is the real deal and who can develop them while they’re here. We will have to dip into the portal for the first few years, at least for the middle of the DL. I think the rest of the defense will be ok.
