What is the situation on interior D lineman? Is there anyone that we are looking at in high school or the portal?

Thanks

if you surf around the recruiting board, you will find the list of LSU 2023 DL targets

here is the link to 2023 DL in the transfer portal 1,279 DL so far in the TP

The staff has struck out on the high school DTs

Going to have to rely on the portal to bring in multiple dlinemen

interior DL is a concern. Bama is staking up with those and we dont have even on interior DL committed. Scary

We’ll pick up some out the portal. Not getting one in the recruiting class though is shocking

I believe it’s 1279 total players in the portal because that number isn’t changing when I swap positions

Got Blaze nailed those links. That's all available with LINKS and notables at positions of need in the Transfer Portal Discussions sticky up top.

This is like those Les Miles recruiting classes…where you would have 5 guards and no offensive tackles

The only good news …is that we’ve got Maason Smith and Mekhi Wingo who are probably the best defensive tackles we’ve had since Michael Brokers and Bennie Logan

Both are gone next year. We need people who can mature for a year.

This. Especially since BK emphasizes the line of scrimmage play so much.

Darron Reed flipping to Auburn really screwed us … he could have gave us some good snaps as a freshman

thx for the clarification as I was not sure

anyone know this kid from Watson, LA - Jalen Lee ? Went to Live Oak, LSU offered and class of 2020, impressive list. at 6'3" 294# he would definitely eat up blocks. Someone closer to this kid may know if he's worth an offer, or a hard pass.

Stats and career 411 from his time at UF has 2 years left, and started the first 3-4 games this year. Kid may be homesick and looking for a change of scenery. Perhaps he had a falling out with his new position coach that came in with the Napier staff ... I have no clue , just thinking out loud.

If we can throw a big enough bag of money at Roy I think he would stay. I don't think he has a day two grade yet though I could be wrong. If he were to stay we would be good for 2023 depth wise...but we very much need to bring in some youthful depth to start developing for 2024.

what disgusts me is that Alabama is gonna land 2 more 5 star DLs and finish yet again above 320 on 247
