If you’re talking about Francis, the answer is YES. I expect him to be the next HOMEGROWN star at the WR position at LSU.

We have like 5 wrs on the roster, and need around 9-10. We have 2 rbs and need 4.

3 qb, 2 rb, 3 wr, 2-3 ol of high quality.

most of these issue will take care of themselves with the coaching change.

Between Davis, Hankton and Wilson I have a difficult time choosing the worst of the bunch.

I don't think talent/athletic ability was the issue at Oline. Adams should be back, Ory Williams looked good at RT in limited reps. Though an impact OT is still high on the list. Plenty of bodies at guard and new coaching and scheme should help there. Center is a big question considering Echols was recruiting to play there but hasn't seen reps.


There is talent on the OL if it can be coached properly. My first call would be to Moore to try and get him to stay for 1 more season, but if he’s set on leaving, we need to find another experienced starting Center in the portal. Then pay big for a top LT, move Adams to RT, and pay Ory Williams well enough to stay and be your first tackle off the bench. Then get one Guard and let them all fight it out for those two spots.

Also, if Curne is definitely gone and not just fishing for a little more money, we need to really work to get Thomas to stay.

I also work with a guy from the Alexandria area who was speaking with someone who knows the Lindsey family and has been a coach in the area. He (the family friend) told my co-worker that he expects Lindsey's situation to be cleared up shortly, Lindsey will be back on the team (he is still enrolled and completing his required hours), and that Lindsey really had no idea about how much trouble those guys were in. I'm not sure how much I believe he was clueless, but I could see the charges being dismissed or reduced to a misdemeanor. Lindsey would be a welcome addition.


A solid backup option who can’t command a lot of money sounds like exactly what we need for a 4th or 5th guy.

3 P4 starters- no.
1 P4 starter and a couple of backup or G5 guys, absolutely.

Do you have any clue how many players there are in the transfer portal at any given time? And that’s before “tampering” to get a sitting player to enter.

Just look at what Kiffin and Weiss did last year. Weiss found Chambliss at D2 Ferris St. Simmons was always going to be the starter, so they value shopped to find a capable backup. They did a pretty damn good job of if, too.

There are guys out there who will leave starting jobs for teams in the MAC, Sun Belt, or high FCS for a shot to sit here for a year and make a play for the job in 27. If it doesn’t work out, they will take a redshirt and move on. That’s what MVB did this year and he ended up getting an opportunity. Chambliss did it at OM and it obviously worked out amazingly for him.

Any good TEs in the portal?

Not sure at this point.

We have Trey dez green, and HS recruit JC Anderson. Think we still have the other Green we got from Tam last year.

In all honesty, I don't think we need many WRs. A surefire #1 would be great to have, but we have the talent at WR to be special regardless. Nic Anderson went through the same thing Aaron Anderson did when he first got here. Many were questioning if A Anderson would amount to anything after his first season here. Then season 2 happened, and we saw just how good he could be. I can see him as a star player in Kiffin's offense. He's already done it when he was in Lebby's offense at Oklahoma. Next would be Parker. Loved this kid coming out 2 years ago. He'll be in year three and finally getting a chance. Taron Francis is the next underrated LSU WR turned star like Justin Jefferson and Malik Nabors.

RBs are really good despite what people say about Durham. All we need is a power back then a depth peice.

If we get Braelin Moore bafk, pay up Curne to come back at guard, and purchase two starter caliber tackles, I think we'll be okay at OL.
