Just now getting into some reading. Anything new on the LSU side with Dom?

One day these kids will look back and realize the mistake they are making. The staff is no doubt putting the work in. LSU will get you to the NFL where the real money is at, the numbers prove that. If a couple thousand more dollars means you go to UT, you are ignorant and that is that.

I think we’ll land Dom for the same reason Texas landed Simmons. They’re in state DL that the home team absolutely can’t afford to lose. We’ll find a way to make it happen.

The biggest obstacle right now just seems to be who will be his DLine coach. Lindsey's medical issues hopefully get clearer before December or we make a move on a new coach before then.

LSU needs to break up the Brandon Harris & Terry Joseph connection over there

You don't think the bridges on the LSU side are burned with Brandon?

That’s the way it always works, but some will do well.

It’s sad because our coaches aren’t anywhere close to elite recruiters…

Plus Brian Kelley wants to save money for whatever reason and not get in bidding wars with the best players so we are always tryna get 7-10 best cornerback and safety’s. We don’t go after all the top position groups top players I have no idea why and this is why we won’t win a championship here as long as Brian Kelley is here hate to be negative but this is how I see it unless Kirby smart suddenly dies and Nick saban and a few other coaches

We just got one of the best RBs in the country.

I seriously wonder if some of you have mental problems. Like, it goes much deeper than just trolling or stupidity. You seem miserable all the time. Maybe you should check your real life environment why you're not happy.

I say this as someone who was a Harris fan coming out of HS: He was never able to live up to his rating. It's just fact. He went to UNC and Fedora was supposed to turn him into an All American and he was worse there, getting passed by a FR.

No animosity, but he just wasn't that good.

I’m not sure what he’s like these days, but I can tell you he was an arrogant douche who put in the bare minimum amount of work at LSU. His failure is as much his fault as it was stubborn Miles’ fault.

This isn't the NFL, and there isn't a salary cap. Kelly doesn't divvy out the money. The state of Louisiana doesn't have the investors in NIL that Texas has. We can't offer the money out the gate. Now our guys/gals are doing well, but most of them after they have success under the LSU brand.
