Holy crap, already using his left hand for layups!

My take is that CLK sees a vacuum and he's working furiously to fill it. That vacuum was created when Saban left. What CLK is trying to do is what Saban did at the beginning at Bama, which is work furiously simultaneously on 1. Recruiting like hell and 2. Being successful on the field. Saban kept doing those two things and they built on each other. Be successful on field, attract better players. Be even more successful, attract even better players. Which ultimately led to getting guys like Bryce Young out of SoCal and Devonta Smith from Louisiana.

I think CLK sees the opportunity to do this here and has a vision that in a few years, we'll be getting not only top five stars from all over America, but also the top portal talent. Obviously, the part 2 (success on field) remains to be seen, but I think he/we have a decent chance at pulling it off.

Thought he was amazing in '24 season. Broke a ton of runs. This season he seemed to make bad, quick decisions on where to run which too often resulted in him getting stuffed for loss or 1-2 yd gain. Who knows. Maybe injury related. Berry was better at pausing a bit, looking for hole then blowing through it.

There isn't one thread on Leavitt up now bc of the D. Williams smoke. Are we to assume that the Leavitt ship has sailed?

I'd be shocked if he actually left. This is about getting more $ from LSU. He'll have a good QB, whoever that is, and LK calling plays for him.

Congratulations. You win the award for dumbest post of 2025.

Didn't follow Sage this year, but it is undeniable that he was terrible at LSU. Clueless.

2011

still need elite edge rushers

He may have gotten burned out, he may have lost the love for it because of NIL, or what but their is a decent chace he doesn't want LSU to be his legacy

Agree, but at 64 it seems highly unlikely that coaching burnout can be turned around. He just seems over it.

Definitely one of the least selfish players we've ever had. Got moved around and didn't complain. Hope he has great success with next team.

Max was a senior at LSU when John Emery was a freshman.

I'd add Pyburn and Ramos

Pardon if this has been discussed, but why do we have so few signees for this class? We have 14 while most others are in 20s and even 30s. BTW, our class is #11 on ON3 but on rating per recruit we're #1. What's up with that? Captain Crown?

Mcafee is nauseating.
