I don't believe you can wait and assume, Doubtful he could sign 10 to 12 even if it comes to pass.

Nicholls state signed 8 transfer senior/ grads. LSU can definitely sign 10+. But I don’t think that’s the plan. Maybe sign 6-7 and the rest will be building blocks for the next year

Huge gamble. But might as well wait. What's left in the portal is cheeks for the most part.

I trust CWW to put flesh on dem dar cheeks. Even if we must bring in a few Ben Voogd / Darren Populist / Tuba Player wannabe walk-ons we're gonna have a competitive team this coming year.

Based on what, the portal rankings that had mcmahons teams top 20 in the portal 2 of the 3 years? Didnt golden win a championship with a portal roster that was ranked far worse?

Guess i cant trust these rankings too much.

Almost unanimous support for this measure, 99% chance it passes. Not a huge gamble.

The rankings are funny by Rant standards. When McMahon gets a top 50-100 player rankings don’t matter and we’re told they suck but when Wade doesn’t get one the rankings mean everything. Weird how that works

The irony will be how this destroys statistical records when guys play 5 years and now with the massive NIL deals, its not just mediocre players playing 5 years.

I would then get rid of medical redshirt years entirely. Life isn't fair. If you get hurt, it sucks, but that's life.

I think thats the plan. 5 to play 5. No waivers or exceptions.

College sports will eventually be purchased and then the structure will come. Until then it’s the Wild West

Pitino's thoughts here are valid imo, if this is the angle we're trying to work then we should stand to benefit greatly

It would make sense. We won’t know exactly until it all shakes out.

Seemingly every ruling has gone the player’s way since 2020 and I expect no different on this 5th year. Wade has been ahead of the game on the portal since he was at LSU. I think he’s gambling that this pays off as well and I believe it will. Watch him make LSU the Indiana football of college basketball.
