Huge to lock in his commitment with Pickett showing interest elsewhere. Both guys would be awesome but getting one is a must.

Kelly was left with 38 players when he took over and this is year 3 of a a 6-7 team. FSU rode the portal and has crashed, now we're stacking talent. I'm optimistic...

I think you have to do both. You recruit Louisiana viciously and continue trying to cherry pick here or there in TX, MS, FL, etc. That’s the core of your program. But I think you have to supplement the areas you know you’re deficient by making some pretty big splashes in the portal. Sure, you can mine some unpolished gems here and there, but you need get known commodities in key positions of need. Hopefully, Kelly has learned his lesson about being largely tentative in the portal the last couple of seasons.

3 year GOATed starter next to Pickett with first round draft pick that makes even the biggest NIL offers look like pennies

5* CBs need to play with 5* CBs.

With one 5* CB, teams will tend to throw away from the 5* CB. The lone 5* CB will languish in anonymity.

It's just good business.

It can not be expressed how important this news is right now. Right after the other recruiting news this past week, Phillips locking it in coupled with getting back in the win column puts the brakes on the snowball that was rolling downhill.

Where would LSU be without transfers at QB Joe Burrow and Jayden Daniels?

Will both Pickett and Phillips start at boundary CB as TR FR? I think Stamps will still have one of the spots. Anding and Woodland will be the top 2 slot CB. Now we just need safety BAD.

This just confirms he'll flip to Michigan in the next 72 hours.


Kidding. Really excited to get some of these DBs on campus and shed this god awful dead weight with the upperclassmen

I just don't think Stamps has what it takes physically to be an outside starter. Woodland will make big strides in year two. A top 5 of Phillips, Pickett, Woodland Stamps, Anding and CBU is back. Phillips and Pickett are both EE's too, Raymond will have them ready

Just curious but could Stamps or Anding move to safety? You have to put the best guys on the field.
