But tRant told me Kelly was lying about being aggressive in the portal.

his kid is ranked below Suggs who we lost. I’m not getting excited over someone who isn’t playing in their team’s playoff game.

I don't believe Sydir is a replacement for Suggs. We have better than Suggs freshman coming in for that. Sydir is a DL space eater. That's going to be his role.

We are getting players with proven production for the most part. Plenty to be excited about at the moment.


For the most part, but that’s not this guy. Hadn’t played much this season.

Mitchell is about replenishing young depth after our horrendous 2023 class, and getting a true space eater.

Bo Davis likes him and that's good enough for me.


Figure on the team wish list Bo was getting 1 maybe 2 interior DL portal guys at the most. He chose to take this one and it is still early in the process. In Bo I trust… more than the Fantasy League talent evaluators we have here.

see the majority of our pick ups have been from P4 schools, and mostly from the SEC. I don't know about most of the players we are getting, but hoping they are not at the same level of all the ones we lost. I'm sure most schools getting the guys that left us are thinking they picked up some good players, but, outside of a few, I don't think they will


Portal is also about acquiring depth to fill out a roster. You don’t just shop the portal for stars anymore. Acquire the highest level volume talent you can and let it sort itself out

Yeah, I agree with you. Suggs IMO is a better player than this guy. If anyone ever qualifies as a "depth piece", Sydir Mitchell seems to fit the definition. Having said that, LSU hadn't signed a transfer portal player at all at DT. I was just hoping Suggs would withdraw from the portal...this signing probably signals he wont be doing that.

Getting a kid who entered the portal before getting a chance to possible play for a national championship doesn’t excite me.

If we had a kid who left before the playoffs we would agree.

I like this pickup, plus I believe in Coach Bo. I remember how he coached up Mount Cody for Bama Some years ago. That was the best D-Line I have ever seen in college football in my lifetime.

He’s closer to 4 bills.

Made T’Vondre Sweat look small.

He would have been a depth piece next year if he could get his weight down. Baton Rouge cuisine and the climate going to be hard on Sydir.
