Completely agree. Hard to believe he’s so bad that he can’t get a look over Bordelon or Satterwhite at LG.

I think they did a good job with the class. They landed several future top 100 type draft picks. Much of the transfer class was to fill depth just to fill the roster (probably half was used for this intention).

It’s hard to account for the injuries lsu has has this year. No teams are really built to withstand that many injuries at the top of their roster.

I mentioned when Trey’Dez was hurt, it was likely worth -1.5 wins. I think you prob win that game Saturday if he plays. Same with Whit Weeks. Probably worth 1.5 win swing. Both of their direct backups are not SEC caliber.

Dashawn Spears was a big loss but I think Jhase Thomas is prob the best direct replacement of an injured player.

Gabe Reliford & Anding injuries push the depth chart back one more spot. Both guys were set to play a lot, too.

I know we spent a ton of money, but that transfer class has a TON of hits.

I'm sure it was ranked extremely high nationwide (probably #1) and it will go down as being ranked very high (probably #1).

Now, a dollar analysis needs to be done as well.

And we all know Lester Earl's analysis is always correct so lets bow down to the scouting guru.

Like to compare our transfer class to other teams. I don’t see many busts

Les, he has to be injured. He was a real contributor a year ago to his team. Now, not at all.

My only complaint was the glaring need for TE depth. But yes I’d agree, very good class considering the holes & turnover.

He’s been playing in games so not sure that he is hurt, unfortunately.

Your rankings look good. I wouldn’t put Satterwhite so high. Those first 11 guys on your list are frigging good!

Given where Kelly left things, I cannot disagree. Seeing them lose due to things within their control is difficult. That said, I wonder just what is going on with the officiating.
