Not many career catches. If Kelly wants him, he'll get him, though.

was behind a 2nd round draft pick (former top 80 overall recruit) in Kmet and what could possibly be a top 2 round draft pick in Mayer who was a former 5 star and had 70 recs, over 800 yards and 7 TDs this year. He was behind two guys that were top 3 at their positions coming out of high school.

This could legit be the next Moss for LSU.

I sometimes watch a Notre Dame players' podcast, and they do not hate Kelly. They often praise him and talk about what he has done at LSU so far. Those ND kids are smart kids and understand how it is in the world.

Yep. Remember watching a couple recruiting guys talk about how these coaches put stuff out in the air about what they need, and you know these players tall with each others and have connections where they can get info on who is looking for what. That's why if a kid is in the portal usually he already has a couple, or his exact place in mind.

I wish some ND fans would get in this thread & tell us their opinion on this guy.

BC is a much better school, not sure what LSU would have over them besides maybe something O&G related.
I know he's a ND grad, but if he really has a NFL dream I think LSU has the edge regardless of the masters class.

Kelly knows this kid well. If we do r go after him, I’m sure he has a damn good reason

So we 'miss' on Lewis and this cat is available in less than a week ? LOL. That's another terrific counter punch from the staff.

are you allowed to bring in players in the portal to come in for a tryout? Could bring Jaelyn Lay and George Takas in at the same time and have a tryout, a one to one, man on man tryout. Have them race 40 yards, weight lift competition, blocking each other, going out for passes against each other, stuff like that. Then offer the winner a scholly and a little NIL money.

Cool about the same stats as the Clemson Tight end that is in the portal. Got your pick which one or is there actually a tight end out there that can catch a ball ?

Both of his coordinators at ND were planning on following him to LSU until Freeman got offered the ND gig.

We gonna pay him 50k+ a year? We wouldn't shell that out for top rated HS kids with 4 years left...

I think the kid would be a take, my only point was since he's a grad transfer, he might be looking for the best free Masters he can get. Let's hope not.
He's in ND's School of Business, well above the Mendoza line.

LSU's MBA program ranks in the 60's and BC's in the 40's for public MBA programs. Some difference, not huge.

However, coming from a descendant of a former ND offensive lineman no self respecting Irish would transfer to BC.

So for me Lay has been in portal since Early late december/early January i think. Denbrock and Kelly are TE guys, if they haven't brought Lay in yet then that's very telling. We've seen how fast we've moved on portal players when we want them so I highly doubt we want Lay. Embody reached out to lay who told him there's been no contact.

For some reason...I've seen a few people on here post that Lay just recently entered the portal. I thought that was odd, b/c I've seen him on there for a while now.

I never really saw Lay as a real target honestly.

You sure? Some of the present LSU staff have coached for him in prior years.
