re: The DT Fiasco (0-5 is a Real Possibility)

[quote]The LSU football program generates tens of millions of dollars every year.[/quote]
It's legitimately insane to me that people STILL think that NIL money is coming from the athletic department.
The tens of millions of dollars generated by LSU football is totally separate from NIL m...

Of all the dumb reasons people find to oppose letting players get paid, this has to be the dumbest. Why is team chemistry not a problem in the NFL?...

I don't think people realize how bad and how thin our current defensive interior really is. Obviously it's not *literally* "nothing"--there are players on roster--but it is as close to nothing as you will ever...

The thing is... if we don't add some pieces, we actually WONT be okay.
Right now, our DT depth resembles that of a bad G5 team. We currently have zero guys who project as average SEC star...

[quote]LSU raised over 7 million nil goal for 2024[/quote]
I’m not sure whether you’re saying that they raised more than $7m total or that they raised $7m *more than their goal*, but if it’s the former, we are simply not even in the ballpark with programs like texas and ohio state - the big dogs ...

[quote]I viewed Thomas as an upgrade in the return game after swinging and missing with Aaron Anderson. Not so much as a guy who would unseat Hilton as a starter.[/quote]
Sure - but I can’t imagine he’d have transferred here just to be a return specialist. Maybe he’s really just a competitive a...

100% chance that this video is posturing by his agent.
The "play for clicks" thing is strategic - they want to make this about deion and take the spotlight off of mcclain. They know that jabbing at deion will get attention and are hoping that will allow mcclain's red flags to recede into the ba...

How is it even possible for this kid to be thinking about reclassifying?! I swear to god he's taken/is taking more recruiting trips than any recruit i can ever remember following - i don't know how he can even stay eligible, let alone get ahead.
To be clear, I'm all for kids enjoying the proces...
re: LSU looking to add another WR?
Posted by LifeAquatic on 4/22/24 at 9:35 am
If this is indeed the case, I am extremely confused by their management of the WR room (and the roster generally). Entering this offseason, we had a pretty good idea that Lacy and Hilton would be solid starters. Prior to spring practice, we didn't necessarily know if they'd be true difference makers...

[quote]64.8 PFF grade, which is slightly below Patrick Jenkins at 65.0 FWIW[/quote]
PFF grade is a little iffy for certain positions - DT being one of them. With the way PFF does its grading (each play is assigned a grade of -2, -1, 0, 1, or 2, with 0 supposed to be the "default", which are then ...
re: Logan Diggs - not really talked about on the board

[quote]Lane probably convinced him he'd be used the same way Judkins was - which is for sure not happening.[/quote]
I don't think that's an unreasonable promise at all. Ole miss split carries plenty with Judkins. He accounted for 45% of Ole miss's total rushing attempts in 2022 and 51% in 2023....

[quote]Why did he transfer?[/quote]
If I had to guess, I'd guess that its either one or a combination of a few different (but related) things.
The main factor--the thing that everything else ties back to--is this: The staff (rightfully, in my opinion) really really likes Kaleb Jackson. T...

[quote]Do we get them all and convert 1 to LB?[/quote]
Why would we do this when we could just recruit a LB? Just because devin white was a RB once upon a time doesn't mean it's a good team-building strategy to recruit RBs to play LB.
If you're a mid- or lower-tier P5 team for whom bluechi...
