Regarding Reed: Auburn offered a deal where he could make 150,000.

From someone close within LSU.

Take what you want from this. I did mention what happened with Jacoby Matthews last year as well.

Matthews link

Chester getting high amount as well.
This won’t be the last time Auburn is involved with LSU, they have a good chance at flipping Bo Hughley (Big Bo) which we already kind of knew.

Not only that but they are targeting Armoni Goodwin as transfer option (doubt it happens but they are spending)


Enough with the negative though, LSU will be more than fine. LSU in the mix for Jordan Hall, and leads for top 100 edge rusher Tausili Akana. And of course can’t forget Toviano, Ricks, Harbor.

Have to replace mickens and reed on the d line. Akana is small.

I do not know about DJ Chester and if he is in or out. Just crazy money being thrown at him.

On no planet should you be able to make more money going to Auburn than LSU

The desperate, shitty teams throw out the huge bags. The ones with actual selling points don't.

NCAA needs to get control of this bullshite. Worse than NFL. Annual free agency with no caps.

I think y’all remember how Kirby was throwing bags around when he first got to UGA. LSU needs to ensure the first few years are successful so kids start putting them in the same conversation as Bama UGA OSU. Like it or not we are not on their level yet.

It’s just desperate money, not more money. Regardless, Auburn is outspending LSU. DJ Chester would be a massive blow. Darron Reed wanted to be closer to home

That was the only critique I had about taking a “national” approach to recruiting. Kids will always consider playing close to home. Wish LSU offered bigger NIL deals to some of the Louisiana CBs

LSU just has to be smart because all the good vibes of a top 5 class can be gone in an instant these days. NIL and the portal is nuts

The same way its smoke about us and Mathews..You think its a coincidence that Benard-Converse, Brooks, Foucha, and Burns fell in our lap through the transfer portal?

Why are we being outbid for recruits by Auburn?

To be fair, these were all Louisiana kids at inferior programs except Burns and Georgia.

Goodwin is from Alabama. We flipped him from Auburn after Gus got fired.

Reed isn’t worth getting into bidding war with. He’s not Womack

Seriously, people are supposed to believe someone in BRIAN KELLY's FOOTBALL PROGRAM is telling YOU inside information?!?!?

Do they trust you because of your (imaginary) contacts high in the Athletic Dept/Football Program that told you:

"Lock it up. It’s a done deal. Lincoln Riley will be the next LSU head coach"
or
"FYI He’s still coming (Riley)" This is from the morning after Riley said on national TV that he wasn't going to LSU.

Take what you want from this.
Believe what you want from this
You say this a lot. Doesn't inspire confidence. Seems to say "I am verrrry important so respek my guesses!"

quote:

Matthews was gonna keep doing this until he got the most money out of it. LSU backed out. It was a good call IMO.
Mathews was literally in tears talking to Coach Frank about this decision. He wasn't who wanted a bidding war. He wanted to come to LSU. Unfortunately, in the best interests of his family he sucked it up, acted like a man, and went along with a decision that was made for him.

Shite, I just realized how boring your schtick really is. Pfft.

He’s a top 50 kid on on3… you don’t just give those away because you have 1 other higher rated guy. Talent acquisition is the name of the game….
