Would love someone to post a full list of the current roster. WHy are all these kids leaving? It makes no sense...some of them starters and getting significant playing time.

Yeah losing starters to the portal is bad. No way to sugar coat it.

Nope. Just cancel the season. It's over. We can't even field a team.

Some of you are massive pussies.

- a coaching change
- new transfer portal rules
- new NIL rules
- Orgeron's shitty arse culture getting cleaned up


It's pretty easy.

Not just the portal, which has been absolutely brutal, but kids like Flott, Baskerville, and York declaring unexpectedly...

This will be a ground-up rebuild. We'll have to be patient.

But when you live inside an LSU bubble, you don't have a clue what's going on in the rest of the world.

Coaching change for a program with poor culture during the birth of the modern transfer portal and NIL. It is what it is.

You too can look on LSUSport.net and look at the 2021 roster and start counting. I am sure you are aware of the ones we've had transfer out and the ones we've had declare for the NFL Draft.

I counted around 48ish (real scholarship players) right now.... when you take away Cade York (draft) and McGlothern (Transfer).

And for the 4,964th time - we can sign a total of 32 new players. We've already signed 14 and have 18 spots left.

I don't think we really have a handle on the roster yet, but I trust that it will get there. Kelly isn't here to coddle anyone, which I believe needs a degree of adjustment - you can't just let your best players walk without working on it, lose 2-3 games every year, but be a hero bc you have a team of saints. Sure, discipline (accountability, responsibility, etc) is important but this isn't Yale. And, we have to figure out how to get busy with NIL - not just a deal here and a deal there, but a way to ensure that we're just not poached in recruiting ad through the portal.

It's not the same at every school. The culture orgeron created was so out of whack.
