Since Dilin Jones says he will be back in 2027, who do you think stays or leaves?

Caden Durham - Leaves
Harlem Berry - Stays
Stacy Gage - Stays
Rod Gainey - Leaves
Raycine Guillory - Leaves

Then if all three incoming freshmen make it to campus, that still gives LSU 6 scholarship RBs.

Anyways, that's just what I think. If Berry does leave, I could see him end up at Florida or Tennessee. Or will transfer rules prevent that.

I'd say your list looks spot on, but I do think Berry leaves also. If i remember correct he toyed with the portal last year.

I have faith Kiffin will hit again with replacments, im not worried about that room.

Berry seems pretty committed to doing the work to get better. I hope he stays and earns the reps through hard work. Hopefully he sees our staff as best equipped to get him ready for the NFL.

Worrying about this, at this point in time is pointless. In today's CFB we can't get a clear picture of what next year will look like until after signing day, and after the portal closes.

Durham needs a change of scenery. He is middling here and just seems to go down when touched. He also looks slow and we know he has speed, so he may need to drop weight, which won't help his power.

He should go to a smaller school and be who he is.

Unless Berry is locked in on a multi-year NIL deal, I think he goes. And I think it would be best for both parties. He's not getting the touches and LSU could reallocate those NIL funds to a position of need. Or just move him to WR and see if he can earn his touches there.

With 3 RB coming in, I could see the whole existing class leave, except Jones.

Jones may say he's staying but you can bet he will be asking for a NIL raise, will LSU match what he wants is the big question

Durham for sure is out

Berry is expensive for his production this year

Tell us Berry's price tag, with any shred of evidence that you aren't just talking out of your arse again.

Yeah, Berry is leaving, and he should. You get better at football by actually playing football. And he just doesn’t fit what Kiffin and Weis want to do to expect any more carries next year. I think it will be Jones, maybe Gage, a portal guy or 2, then 2 or 3 freshmen.

Agree, posts like these are too soon and a total waste of pixels.

For sure but at some point you gotta get on the field. And his reps are limited.

I think Kiffin likes him and wants him more involved but can't be mad at Harlem if he bolts after the season to somewhere he knows he's gonna be the featured back.

I think this is the most accurate.
