What's the story?


There's way more time with this portal than football. There's no reason to rush any of this. It'll be fine. We are just going to have to be patient which I particularly struggle with. I have the patience of a chopping block.

We have not announced any signings yet, but as of last week I'm told we had at least half the roster filled and that was confirmed by multiple folks I discussed it with.

What exactly is the purpose of not releasing the signees?

Why do you care? It’s not like you’re an LSU basketball fan anyway.

I remember there was a year back in his earlier reign his team went a-portalin" at a dizzying pace, with Mays, Days and about 3 more luminaries jumping ship. Before the next season's practices began, most were back on the team.

Yes, the window to ENTER the portal ends tomorrow night.

Sometimes.

Guys who are in bidding wars will likely draw it out longer than that.

But, indeed, things often go past the closing date.

Wade's team will finish with a better SEC record than this year's team. Upvote for yes. Down vote for no.

Neither do I.

To make my life easier, i merely scan the first page of the Rant or the Recruiting Board and click on one of the multiple topics about this same concern.

The Recruiting Board even has a stickied topic on this subject.

It’s less time consuming than starting a new topic and then coming back to read anything new on a new topic until the topic dies from lack of participation.

I could not answer that question, but I'm told there was a strategic reason - I'd have to have it explained to me.

Can you imagine if this were MM? He’d be blaming everyone and creating fantasy tales to explain it. Hell some of these retards blame the baseball season on Wade, they’ll say anything.

Curious if there are any others besides Graves on the radar screen in the portal that declared for NBA draft, who may end up deciding to bypass it and play another year in college. That would be some elite talent.
