Appears GM Austin Thomas put together a great FA (portal) list of targets.

He had a great draft (signing day) and now LSU is signing some great talent from the portal.

How is all of this because of Austin Thomas?

It's literally his job.

If we bitch about (or praise) the OC or DC then we should do the same for other members of the staff.

This is his role and his responsibility.

100% correct. Anyone doubting this or laughing at this post simply doesn’t know the coaching staff and their roles and impact.

Hopefully our draftees don't leave after being sent to the minors for the first year.

Yup. He's doing what they brought him back in January to do and that's put together the best roster that LSU's assets can so we have the talent to compete for a championship.

He’s the one that sets up their “draft” board so to speak. He manages budgets and lets them know what they should spend on players.

He developed the Ole Miss NIL program then came back to LSU to do the same thing. He’s not alone in it, but obviously he’s making an impact

In the NFL they would call him the Player Personnel Director, and next to the head coach and general manager it's the most important role in the organization.
