How's it feel Bama to let us take your guys like you did us? Time for BK to put the boot on Saban's throat and force him into retirement. Even he sees the writing on the wall with NIL his dynasty is over.

I can’t see lsu taking 2 portal receivers with the other needs on the team. Receiver seems pretty good right now if all the current commits stick.

This isn’t the NFL. Roster spots aren’t nearly the premium. There’s room in the 85.

Not if they feel like guys like Hilton will stick around. There's no cap on who you can take so you make the 85 man limit work when it comes to that time. You don't say no to talent especially homegrown talent which is BK's blueprint. He didn't do anything at WR but he was an excellent return man. Considering how bad our STs are I don't see how you can say no to that. Anderson's potential is much more than just return guy.

Why not? We are in no danger of reaching the 85 scholarship limit. College football is different now. Having 2 electric return men gives you flexibility and depth in case of injury.

Really wish we could find room for him.

Thomas is a proven difference maker.

Not to hijack the thread, but a related question about the 85. Do guys who are playing their “Covid year” count against the 85 or was that a one-year deal.

Ex 2018 recruit - 18 RS, 19 RSF, 20 RSSo (Covid), 21 RSJr, 22 RSSr, 23 Covid RSSr

I totally agree with you. I just don’t see them doing it. Just my opinion.

Right each of these guys can be used in different ways ! Imagine having Thomas and Anderson/Hilton/Brown returning kickoffs

I get it. But after the heat Polian rightfully took as ST coordinator, he’d better get every ST weapon he can.

I would not have thought so either but hearing Kelly say they may sign in the high 30’s makes me think they might

LSU had 8 scholarship WRs this year, which is low.

They’ve lost two, so before anyone is signed, they are at 6.



Ideally they need to be around 10-11.

I didn’t say they would not take another receiver. They may. I just think their game is so similar they both are return specialist and play in the slot.

My question would be why haven’t they taken him? He’s been in the portal for a week or so, makes me think we aren’t taking him

The Thomas kid proved it on the field this year it's much more a sure thing.
Should take him now.

Idk man. We're pretty deep at WR in this class and Aaron meets a specific need.

We need dlineman so bad
