I'm an old man. I am a tradition guy. GWG.

Lane is a @#$% stirrer, but with a smirk.

Hope for the brand uniform aka Texas, Alabama, USC, etc...but get ready for the Rant to explode.

As far as I am concerned, if they win, they can wear LSU's original colors of blue & white (Google it). Just win.
The Rant is surely a love/hate site.
Every morning I get great pleasure reading the posts & wondering how some of the posters are allowed near sharp objects...probably including my self at times.
Thanks for a good job Chicken!
Re #6, Longstreet is now wearing 8. Dottery & Watkins wear 6.
T10,
When I saw this Q I thought it was another waste of time post during the dead days of summer.
I was wrong. I have enjoyed reading the posts.
Good job!
Re Cooley...first day of camp. If you want to make sure everyone is in the right place, etc. that is the safety's job. Why not put an experienced Cooley there with the two's on the first day.
Re Dom...there are many ways to motivate a kid in August.

Re Picket wearing #5 in video, isn't there a number retirement policy?
Cannon had his #20 retired where noone can wear 20 again. I thought it had to do with him winning the Heisman. If so, will 9 & 5 be retired at the proper time?
I understand how 37, 4, etc. is honored on the wall but can still be worn.

When I see one with the new Woodside add logo on it...I will worry
Live in NOLA area. To tell you how old I am...I was in the stadiums for all of the 62-0 games. Know a number of Tulane fans my age. Two things: 1. They hate LSU. 2. Hell would freeze over before they attended any sporting event in BR.
They haven't sold their allotment since Big John was Gov & they will not do it in 2030.
For the record I think we should play them every year...
Be honest...how many of u guys opened the link to see if the OP was talking about you?

TP: forgot about the "pig pot".
FYI for those who weren't there, freshman orientation for the guys was run by the ROTC. On Thursday night, we were to go into Tiger Stadium & have a pep rally with the football team present.
Before we marched into the stadium the freshman companies opened ranks & the freshman girls marched in between the ranks & matched up with the boys. She was your "date" for the event & you had the responsibility to get her back to her dorm that night...it was a different time back then & we did what we were told.
The winner of the pig pot in my company eventually married his "date" & from the last I heard, they lived happily ever after.
Could talk about those days forever...next time we will tell you about the "Ole Miss" riots!

TP: I was a freshman in "63 also. Lived in old Graham. Mandatory ROTC. Nobody believes we wore PJ's & an LSU beanie to the first game.
Those were the days.....

Thank you G for the help to an honest question.

New LSU guy at Advocate

Posted by TheBear60 on 6/24/26 at 6:32 am
Sorry if I missed it, but who did this guy replace?
I know it's fun to play "what if", especially after this past season, but I keep going back to something Jay talked about towards the end of last season - that the portal is good at times, but he wanted to develop his own players going forward.
I wonder if he is going to make Ruckert & Patrick or one of the incoming freshman lose second or center field before he plugs one of the portal guys there.
Frankly, I keep checking the sites for more pitching. I read the articles where the staff expects improvement via the current guys being one year older, but I don't think that they are finished with plugging one more weekend type guy. They need one more guy who can get them 18 to 20 outs on a weekend to save the bullpen.

Any interest in the Tyson LeBlanc kid from LSU-E who played for Kansas?
My take may be "dumb" to you about only a couple of champ's...but I like the percentages...40% of his years CJJ wins in Omaha.
Even the GOAT didn't match those numbers.
On a side note, I can't understand why readers of this site has to act like ^%$# & call people names if they disagree with their openion.

Seems to me that I heard CJJ take responsibility...he said that he should have kept some of the guys who left & that they missed badly on some of the guys they brought in & he made his point about men's baseball cut on the NIL pie.
I also seem to remember that he & that staff was pretty busy in the summer of '25 when the portal opened up...oh yea...they was winning us number 8.
I join the krewe who hates what has happened this year, but I believe we are having a joy ride compared to what CJJ is having. I learned a long time ago that when someone with ability takes it on the chin & accepts responsibility, good thing usually follow.
I think we will be OK.
