OUCH this hurts for the future. Can't believe we couldn't convince him to stay. Could have slid Jones inside (where he'll likely play in the NFL) and put Heard at RT for a season then move to LT once Campbell leaves.

This is exactly what I expected to happen. Kelly isn’t going to put up with shite like this. He quit on his team and after the bowl game Kelly probably told him to go frick himself in a professional way.

Check cleared from LSU, not time to get another. I guarantee he has a handler (or parent) running the show.

For the "Next year is our year" and "BK wants to build through HS recruits" crowd... This is a prime example of why you can't forecast a team with the Transfer Portal.

Theres just too much money flowing to expect a 5-Star kid to sit for 2 seasons when he can go somewhere else and start immediately/get paid. College football is now a one year window.

You have to do whatever is necessary
to win NOW because your current roster is not promised for the following season.

Good. It'll be even funnier when they still lose 2 to 3 games.

Too bad they can’t claim Co-SEC West champs anymore

Bama's starting LT was a freshman this year so I don't see that happening. The only way I think he will get a for sure starting spot at LT would be for him to transfer to a lower tier program. Maybe I am wrong

This is exactly why you NEED to build your team from HS recruiting and not the portal.

Any successful program isnt just looking at 2024.

He had already decided to transfer by then.

Did y'all really think he'd be back? The fact people think he all of a sudden has character issues are idiots. He played all year for this team without any issues.

The young man wants more playing time and some of you are mad at him for that. Sad, tbh.

re: Should have put him at RT and slid Jones inside.


why do you guys just act like Jones is some kinda slouch? shits irritating that you're asking to move a grown man RT inside because someone wants to play there, who hasn't earned it. I want Heard to go and be great also, but just thinking that moving Jones inside was the fix, was never the case.

He can still pull his name, but he clearly doesn’t see himself playing either tackle next year and he’s probably right.

He couldn’t even join his team in Tampa. Good luck to the young man but whatever.

Yeah we could’ve weakened the Oline to make one player who hasn’t proven anything happy. Good plan. You should get that to Brad Davis.

Right. He was renegotiating for next yr. Probably wanted starter left tackle money without being the starter at lt.

Kinda dumb that he came here in the first place if this was his issue. If he really wanted to play LT at LSU he should've taken a RS year to create some space between him and Campbell.

RS 2023
RT 2024 and move Jones to guard
LT 2025
LT 2026
