re: we bring in the right pieces offensively don’t think it’s crazy to expect playoffs year 1

All starts with the O Line.

It's entirely possible this OL could be decent under a coach with a competent offense approach/scheme rather than the predictable incoherent mess under the last OC.

The defense will have a LOT of production to replace. Baker is a good DC. But he's not good enough to consistently overcome an extreme lack of talent. LSU had an awful secondary for the last two seasons. This year they get an All American CB and an All SEC safety, and suddenly it's one of the best in the country. LSU's is going to have to find guys to fill those shoes.

Dont be surprised if Dom transfers...his younger brother who is a 3 star just committed to Ohio State...they dont recruit 3 stars without some kind of ulterior motive

Dom was a late flip to LSU, so I’d have to question his commitment to the Tigers, based on his brother’s decision. Dom sees his replacements coming in the next class. I hope I’m wrong, but it wouldn’t surprise me.

Whit Weeks may come back. A healthy, more productive season could push him higher up in the 2027 NFL Draft. And Harold Perkins has a year of eligibility left. Not sure what his draft stock looks like, but maybe enough NIL money can bring him back.

Would be thrilled to get both (or either) back but I'm assuming we get neither. But you're right, in the new NIL era, who knows.....

Honestly think we’re fine at guard. I like Echols , move curne back to his natural position and a healthy Solomon Thomas gives you 3 uber talented options
