May the best man win the job...

The safety from Houston has to have interest in us

If true and LSU is able to seal the deal with any of these guys... I wouldn't even expect an announcement until after the portal closes. It's chess, not checkers. You have preserve your roster going into the summer as much as possible. An early announcement may trigger guys at the same position to jump on the portal before it closes.

The kid from ULM just entered the portal yesterday, other than him find me someone in the portal that would come in and start!

Idk why people get so enamored by every warm body that enters the spring portal.

The Spring portal is basically filled with P4 backups who see the writing on the wall and players from smaller programs who know bigger programs will likely overpay out of desperation.

There aren't any difference makers in the portal at the moment... Just a bunch guys that would provide better depth to what we have, but that's about it.

I think Cooley will be fine. Sometimes it takes guys time to adjust to a new system and environment.

I still think it's a no-brainer to go after Haulcy.

Meh... LSU needs a proven/immediate impact DT if they choose to go after one.

How do you know this as a fact?... because you read it on a message board? He was arguably the best DB coach in the country. Yes, teams are going to try to pry him away. Thats the nature of the business.

And he was whiffing on a ton of top targets

Post Natty He signed
Eli Ricks (5 Star)
Sage Ryan (5 Star)
Derrick Davis (Top 5 Safety)
Jordan Toles (Top 5 Safety)
D. McGhee (4 Star)
McGlothern (4 Star)

The 2020 and 2021 in-state CB recruits were bad. Look it up.

Recruiting was shutdown in 2020 for the rising 2021 class. LSU was a sinking ship with Orgeron in 2021.

Stop making up excuses... Raymond shouldve been retained.

I couldn't be less impressed by Brad Davis

Im not about to whine about the Spring offensive line situation. The Staff obviously shuffled the Oline the entire spring to keep guys engaged, keep the from jumping in the portal, and creating a depth issue. An offensive line needs chemistry as an unit. When the dust settles... Adams, Chester, Moore, Thompson, Davis will be the first 5 in August and they will have 3-4 weeks to build chemistry for Week 1.

I just can't imagine his family doing all this without a guaranteed backup school waiting on Tenn to decline his offer.

Where does he go now? FSU? USC?

He can't transfer within the conference, he has to learn another system in fall camp, and most of the major programs already have their QB for 2025 season.

Kid cant get on the field and has been jumping in & out the portal his entire college career... what's the point of taking him?

Yeah I doubt that kid will be back on the football field. He'll be running sub-10 before the end of this season.

Idk what people are expecting from a kid that's 2.5 weeks in on learning a different system with new players around him. YES, he's going to struggle until he gets comfortable and have a full understanding of what the staff is expecting from him.

He's proven he can play in this league, he'll be fine in due time. Name another backup QB in this league with more game experience than MVB.

Need more of the transfer portal guys in the mix with the 1s

Don't worry... staff just keeping up the moral.

WR: AA, Brown, Hilton, and Anderson will be the guys Week 1 in the fall.

Oline: Adams, Chester, Moore, Thompson, Davis will be the first 5 for Week 1.

Curnes will probably cross train at OG/T and be the 6th guy.
