Hunt said on the radio last week that he heard we had 4 commits that should be announced by last Friday.

Wade and the staff aren’t talking so we’re getting partial info and theories even from “informed” local media. This happened at UNC right before Malone was hired where crazy theories that were pieced together from things that were happening outside of the inner circle became national news then those reporters ended up with egg on their faces. This year’s portal will be a postmortem analysts type deal where nobody will know for sure until it’s done.

If the 5 year eligibility rule passes, and it appears it will, Wade will be laughing last because a lot of these other schools have already blown their wad with a big chunk of their NIL budgets while LSU is sitting pretty. Will be open season with much less competition for the seniors in the portal.


How’d that work out for you?

That would be okay but next year we’ll be replacing all those dudes and starting over.

That's the problem...we're gonna be just "ok" better than mcmahon but not in the same league with the perennial top 25.

NCAA will probably delay it passing solely to spite Wade and frick LSU.
It looks like that is what they will be voting on on May 22nd.


Of course all of this year's graduating seniors (wo redshirts) will be suing to get that 5th year. I bet they win, but you won't get a decision on that until June or July.

Summer practices are looking to be tough on our single commit.

Confident he will put together a competitive roster but if this is how quiet the portal will be each year it sure is gonna take away a lot of the fun of this board

Given that the portal is closed, I can assume Wade is looking in Europe or the G League for players.

The portal isn’t closed, there are still 2,000+ players in the portal.

Stick to baseball Hunt, leave basketball to WW.
I remember when every roster was
“ the best and most talented of McLoser’s tenure”
“Give McCantwin a chance he came to LSU in a dumpster fire with what was left to him”
I don’t see The General getting to same leeway that was afforded to McLoser. He’s proven he CAN win at LSU and the SEC, whilst McMan proved he CAN’T win at LSU and the SEC. Facts!

There’s players in it but you can’t enter it now. So whatever is in there now is all that’s gonna be in it. And not many difference makers in it

I’m sure he has several “commits” provided the five for five thing passes and last year’s seniors are grandfathered in. Seems to be a dangerous game to play though

Yeah, that could backfire bigtime.
