Cohesion(retention as you've said) is a word.

NIL has changed the drive for these players. It used to be that a player would sell pif to do anything to make the play so they can get drafted & get paid Now they already “made it” and 95% effort is what you get instead of that last 5% which makes or breaks a game


You people are morons. The guys played their asses off. We played dumb at times…but they played their asses off. All frickin year long.

And it’s not excusing yesterday, he blew the game with some bad decisions but the narrative that’s forming about “every year is a 1 year team” is incorrect in football. The teams who are consistently in the top 5-10 have high return rates. Sure Indiana is a rebuttal but most of those guys were his guys at James Madison so it’s not exactly the same thing.

That was my only point


Fair enough…

This is why a team like Indiana (bunch of 3 star type guys) were able to win last year. Hard core, old school type coach can get those type of guys to buy in and play together.

All you idiots who believe money wins games shows what a dumbarse you are. Until you know what it actually takes to win in football, just stop making yourself look dumb. All you idiots who believe if a player ranked in the transfer portal means that the player is "good" is wild. Ill give Benefield his props but many of the portal players do not and have not lived up to the hype and its not even close. Sometimes you need to realize the situation you put yourself in and punt the dam ball. One last thing. People tend to not really understand the game of football. The ones that do understand, on 5 different possessions, LSU made a bad decision and lost "field position" and/or didnt take pts by their own doing. Yeah we went up and down the field but the times we didnt , bama absolutely took advantage of the nice field position and got points. When a game is close, winning field position is the most important fundamental of playing and winning in football. I was disappointed in Lane for making these decisions cause ive stood behind him but what's done is done. I do believe nobody is burning over this loss more than he is. This is his first year. There are too many variables that need to be in place that really isnt in order to win. He needs time and good recruiting. Lets beat the horns Saturday.


I couldn’t imagine making a worst post than this crap

The rant's resident trolls will show up to tell you that you're wrong. So many posters here don't understand what successful football is and make an arse of themselves crying about these low iq talking points.

A 3-loss season is borderline tolerable; lose another and, no, no amount of explaining is going to reconcile the massive financial investment made in the LSU coaching staff and players.

It's entirely reasonable for people to expect more from the dollars spent, and Lane is making too much money to botch those on field calls like he did.

It may have to come to that in order to climb. We will be fine. I think we can win 8 or 9 this season imo.

I wont include the money part but you're right about making these bum decisions on the field. Was highly disappointed in a few decisions that were made last night.

You don’t spend 50 million dollars to win 8 games. Do you agree with this simple statement. We could have spent 30 and built the roster more organically before we want to blow our big boy load and then come up short then piss off donors with reasonable expectations that results come with those numbers

The fact that these are STILL 18-20 year old kids making money they are still kids at the end of the day it’s still the same game as before the only difference is depth that is the real reason it’s hard to win lack of depth and parody the field is more level but at the end of the day fans want results


Sentences…. Fans want sentence, complete with periods and stuff.

acting like you know what it takes to win in football is comical. Anyone with an average iq can see you're a fricking mongoloid moron

Judging by your posts, you seem like someone who isn't to swift when it comes to sports.
