Honest expectations for Lane at LSU

I say by year 2 with NIL and the portal

Playoffs by year 2 or we riot

Let's get him here first.

This rationality will not stand on the CCB, sir.

I think right now LSU just expects playoffs.

There’s no lack of talent and we would supply him with a bevy of talent from jump. If he gets a QB year one, he probably goes 9-10 wins year one. Realistically, he should get 3-4 years to make the playoff.

Lane has never had weapons like he will here at WR and TE, though. The ceiling is high.

Year 2 to make the playoffs. Winning the conference is easier said than done. Now a days it takes a really good team and luck, and a favorable schedule

Well, the last guy took over a program with 39 scholarship players that went 5-5 and 6-7 in back to back years prior, removed all staff (coaching, support, scouting, and management) except for one, pulled in a transfer QB who had 10 TDs to 10 ints in his last year at his prior school, started an OL with a center who had never played center before, two true freshman tackles, and a redshirt sophomore transfer guard from a group of 5 team, and went 10-4 year one, winning the West, beating Nick Saban, and playing in the SECCG.

I think the starting point is to win 2 more regular season games than whatever we end up with this year (that means we should go 9-3 at worst next year).

After that, I expect 10-2 or better 3 out of every 4 years. By year 5 LSU should be a household name in the playoffs. I expect a national championship within 6 years. Not just an appearance.
