I bet not. The only way he succeeded at Ole miss was to hire Hookers for recruits. Now he is under the microscope. I will take Brian Kelly over the TP throwers any day.

Nah, your examples were shite

Burrow was looking for his best chance to win on a big stage. Up front money was never a factor.

I mean, I get what you’re saying, but unfortunately in this case, you’re not going to find an example since NIL

Plenty of examples before when recruiting high schoolers, but even then, it doesn’t involve a position of need with a player on your roster that would have been a starter.

Foucha might have been a better example

Why do people bring up Burrow when it comes to the tranfer portal. It is literally apples and oranges specific to him.

he had GRADUATED from Ohio State and was told he wasnt going to really get a chance to play. So after committing to the program for almost 4 years and GOT HIS DEGREE he was a GRADUATE Transfer to LSU.

Massive difference.

I comprehend just fine. I'm not the one making excuse after excuse for kids transferring in, and then turning around and doing the exact opposite for the kids transferring out.

There are much better examples to use than Burrow. It’s retarded to compare the two situations. Mekhi Wingo is a much better example.

Is it also a joke that LSU got Harris from aTm and Anderson from Bama?


Burrow stayed long enough to graduate there and he was passed up by a younger talent. He was never going to play barring injury.

Harris had issues and needed a new start.

It's absurd to see these young guys who start and just leave to start at a rival.

I agree. I think people make freeze out to be better than he really is. He’s a good offensive coach but some people act like ole miss was a juggernaut with him. They never were competing for titles while he was there, and his biggest accomplishment is beating bama twice.

You think a desperate AU program led by St, Hugh tampered?

Dude wasnt even on the job a full week and had another coach, basically saying he was doing shady stuff contacting players who weren't in the portal.

agreed, instead of "commitment" it should have the same words as the NFL

"signed a contract" - LOI after high school, or selected destination from the portal (both after agreeing to NIL deals offered before/after hitting the portal or while in high school)
"free agent" - after every season

This whole deal is funny. LSU fans are melting over a linebacker transferring. Some are bemoaning the entire transfer system now and wanting to burn it all down. Meanwhile, ESPN lists LSU as one of the top "Winners" in the transfer portal this cycle.

Interesting.

I’ll say it again for the 1000th time they have got to get rid of in-conference transferring without having to sit out a year to prevent the shite. It makes all this a joke and kids are entitled and get terrible advice from people in their lives half the time to begin with. It’s bad enough they can transfer on a whim but to be able to transfer to teams in your own conference is a joke

Well said ! I believe CBK will find a good portal answer to address the LB situation.
