That immature arse was on the sidelines acting like a clown. During the oline coaching sessions he was laughing and cutting up. His arse should not have been allowed to travel. This is definitely addition by subtraction.


I heard that he was chewing gum in class too!

Some of you figs are such figs.

You better get on your knees and pray for deliverance from this bad evil.

Last night. I was three rows up from the oline. He knew he wasn’t getting in the game and was distracting the other guys, mainly curne with some elementary bull shite. After the berry fumble he was laughing his arse off.

No it won't. Everybody thst comes in the portal has a chance to start at LSU. This might be the only time that's possible.

I've been worried about so many OL leaving, but after watching a Matt Moscona show last week, I'm more at ease. My simplified version of his 25 min podcast:
The OL underperformed this season. However much NIL was invested in the OL, it did not match the performance. The OL who are declaring for the transfer portal are doing so because:
1. They've been told to find a spot w/ another team.
2. They've been told to expect a drop in their NIL for next season.
3. They're trying to get more NIL from a different team.
Moscona describes building a college roster as being akin to building an NFL roster. If we're going to invest NIL money in OL to upgrade, some of that money may come from OL that were overvalued in the '25 season. From the current roster, I just counted 10 guys who are returning thus far (not including Moore). Five have declared for the portal. Thompson is out of eligibility. We signed 2 in the early period. So far we're down net of 4 guys. I think we invest big in the portal and get 4-5 OL. Numbers wise, that would put us pretty close to where we were this year (as long as we don't lose a lot more).

Let's say LSU gets 5 OL out the portal.

1. To expect them all or at least 80% of them to hit is pretty crazy.

2. Their backups are immediately guys we thought couldn't play this year at all. Just think on that.

Keeping guys like Adams, Curne, Echols, should have been more of a priority. However what is done is done. I know it'll get worked out over time, but next year I expect problems.

It still makes sense to invest in keeping some of the younger guys on the OL roster like Ory Williams, Solomon Thomas, Tyler Miller and Brett Bordelon because we need depth with some upside and none of them is likely to be as expensive as players with a similar or higher ceiling from the portal.
