Exactly. That is a huge problem.
Don’t say that too loud though, people on here have this outlandish idea that you can just rebuild your entire team every year through the portal and contend for championships when nobody that is at the top on cfb consistently is rebuilding their entire o line every year.
Maybe but programs aren't built around high school WRs commanding $1.3mil per year. I'm good with letting him try his luck with Summerall.

You’ve got it. We don’t need elite playmakers or olinemen
The portal will have plenty… right

Kiffen is 100% correct for not paying Easton Royal. We have enough WR talent returning next year along with Leavitt. We need to spend every penny we have on offensive lineman and LBs.

He's not worth the price tag he's asking for.

I just don’t think you can reliably get starting sec linemen in the portal
Seaton and Moore indicate otherwise if you hit on evaluations.

Winnie Watkins was on fire early, but his hand injury has really made him take a step back. Eugene Wilson is immensely talented, but he's a work in progress. I think next season if we don't get another elite guy, he will become WR one. Phillip Wright obviously has the talent, as does Corey Barber (who was a 5 star), and people forget Jabari Mack because he's just a true freshman on special teams. LSU has plenty talent for next year.
Besides Harris, what about the other 9 WRs he brought in this year? They haven’t been good
The further we get into the season, the more I think Harris is gone next year. He will be Kiffin’s first 1st round WR.
I don’t think Kiffin’s track record is bad, but you came to lsu to land the best, not to put together a budget room of players every year.
I listed a year where Kiffin had 4 WRs average over 15 yards per reception with 3 averaging over 17. It's actually pretty funny looking back over his Ole Miss years and every year is another group of WRs showing out.
LSU doesn't have infinite money, nor is their problem ever going to be wide receiver. What we need is OL, a competent OL coach, and running backs right now offensively. I'd rather spend most of my money on OL, DL, QB, and RB. Yes other positions get money, but those 4 are what I would base big business on.

Wilson proved he wasn't anything special at florida. They spent big more on tre brown(600k) and jayce brown(800k) and neither can get on the field.
He better replace watkins next yr. I'm with you on kiffin usually being able to find receivers. This yr it didn't happen. I'm hoping that was just from the quick turnover time.
To me you still have to hit on high school kids tho.

Not much of an evaluation needed to happen for seaton lol
But Moore was a good eval for sure by the previous staff.
The rest of the o line though? Not great evals there.

Our dumb arse fans don't care about him leaving, like they are really contributing to the NIL funds. Most are happy about landing 3 stars and hoping we can beat Bama or UGA with a bunch of 3 stars.

Royal may turn out great but then again not so much. I just don't believe he's on the Jamar Chase level. I'd spend that money on OL you can get really good WRs in the portal.
Posted on 11/10/26 at 7:44 pm to Cd104
He a WR bro. Not anywhere near as important as a QB, OL, DT, or CB. We’ll be fine.

It goes both ways - LSU has made a substantial offer and UF went higher, at some point you walk away.
