If Stewart to USC is true, then LSU will have a lot of the Phillips, Stewart, Underwood etc money to throw at the portal (after player retention).

Kelly says they will be aggressive there. We will find out quickly if that is true.

Kelly has to be aggressive. A poor year 4 may not get him a 5th year. This team is completely his guys next year.

Keep lying to yourself, BK should jump in the portal.

You know this makes me think about the Proctor kid that left Bama to go to Iowa then left and went back to Bama. Not sure if I have all the details correct but I thought he used Iowa to get more money from Bama.

More than some but as we’re learning, if someone really wants a guy, they’ll outbid us with relative ease

With his contract and the buyout, he will get a 5th, 6th, 7th, and even an 8th. LSU does not have Texas oil money

Look at the numbers.

He would have to bomb HARD to be out of here before year 7. I think after year 6 is the earliest and that is a big time stretch. He's getting 7 years.

Does anyone know if Derek Williams was hurt this year for UT or just beat out? Didn't play much

We thought the kid was going to be a good player. Curious if anyone knows him and if he's thinking about hitting portal.

Well yeah.

It's a good and bad thing.

Means you missed on the top high school qb, a young disruptor on the line, and a young shut down corner.

Hopefully, they actually go after some of the top dogs in the portal and get them for cheaper than the high school guys. If they replace them then no harm no foul.

If Stewart to USC is true
Sure but it'll also mean we whiffed in the Portal last season, aren't holding down recruits we've had locked up for a while, and any time someone wants a dude we have, they just throw more money at him and we lose him...

So we'll have money, but will it matter?
