Does he really know this sport??


Honestly, he doesn't know sh*t about football.

Unfortunately, “I” don’t feel confident in this one


I honestly dont care if we miss on him... Hell, split his NIL package and use it to top off Lamar Brown & Richard Anderson's deal.
quote:

8-4 with this team will get Kelly fired


Doubt it... but he should negotiate a retirement/step-down package
Money grab at its finest! :lol: ...but its necessary. Arizona St and Boise St had no business getting a BYE last season while other teams got penalized for navigating through a tougher schedule/conference.
quote:

My love for high school recruiting have slowly dwindled


Same here... nowadays, I look at early commitments as bargaining tools for recruits to get more NIL. Once a kid commits to a school, other teams will continue to reach with a counter offer until signing day.

It's hard to take anything serious until the pen hits the paper in December.

But star rating isn’t indicative of how good a player is necessarily. 


Thats true some cases. BK has signed a total of 28 3-stars from 22, 23, and 24 classes. Only 1 has started a game (Stamps). Two others have gotten meaningful playing time (Breaux & Woodland).

The rest are either buried on the depth chart, passed up by an incoming transfer, incoming higher rated recruit, or transferred out.

quote:

Only a 3-star but offers from some of the top programs in the country


All offers aren't committable.

In this NIL era, there's no path to the field at LSU or any other major program for lower rated prospects. Coaching staffs are constantly looking for instant contributors every portal cycle.

He would better off going to a smaller program, getting on the field early, develop, and hitting the portal to bigger program after a year or 2.

Matt House is an obvious excuse.
Sure it’s his hire, but still a valid excuse.

How is this a valid excuse? He hired a washed NFL position coach and then gave him a contract extension after one season.

...only to backtrack and hire the guy that was already on the staff when he fricking got here!

quote:

3 loss season would be disappointing but BK isnt going anywhere


If he doesn't at least make the playoffs with this roster, he'll never win anything of significance here.

Verge schedules LSU out of any playoff spot




If you're scared, go to church. When are yall going to start holding BK accountable, instead finding someone else to blame?

From 2005-2019, LSU was 14-1 in Week 1.

10 of the 14 opponents were from Power 4/5 conferences. LSU was one of a few schools that had the balls to play quality competition out the gate.

Would be a huge get


:lol:
quote:

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.
quote:

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.
quote:

Cooley didn’t look terrible but not really noteworthy,


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.
quote:

And they were shitting on Aaron Anderson about this same time last year.


I remember... hyped up Zavion all summer and constantly talked about Anderson's size.
Meh... LSU needs a proven/immediate impact DT if they choose to go after one.
quote:

He kept threatening to go to atm, fl, tx, etx almost annually.


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.

quote:

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.
