Losing Speedy Noil only hurt for a short while.

LH and his advisors have always had unrealistic expectations, including his desire to start at LT over W. Campbell. He also insisted on huge money that he was not worth (at the time ) and he left. He was overweight and slow his first year at Tenner, but got his act together last year and was all-SEC.
He is now a very good LT, but my guess is that the unrealistic expectations have not changed.

re: Texas tech outbidding LSU WOW

They have plenty of money for a defense.
TTU will not run out of portal money, even if they are overpaying kids, like Sorsby.
These Asst coaches need lawyers.
OM has handled this like a woman scorned from the get go ( their AD setting the tone) and the old OM coaches are now damned if the do continue and damned if they don’t. They will be accused of letting down the team if the leave while the Rebs/ Bears are still in playoffs, but accused of tampering with OM. Players with or without any good cause, b/c of proximity to them during this time, if they follow the coach to LSU.
These coaches are in a no win situation.
And once they leave OM ‘s AD will turn on them.

1. What is the "proper" interpretation of the statement?
2. How do you know?

I assumed that they thought LSU was too risky with a highly questionable OL and Joe Sloan as OC..Looks like they made the right decision.
This is no a charade.
It’s now a business. And Green would be foolish to leave money on the table.
He likely wants to stay at LSU, but wants to get paid something near what the market will pay him
If you are advising the kid, you advise him to do exactly this to get the money right.
Under the circumstances, I see nothing sinister or disloyal about it.

I am still confused and concerned about whether he tried to use Brown and Anderson as leverage . Does anybody have reliable info on this?
Its completely misleading to have this discussion about low game attendance at bowl games outside the playoff system until the Independence Bowl is played in Shreveport.
That game is tomorrow.
Get those numbers and try to make the argument that these bowls are not hugely attended, Mister!

re: Kyle Williams…what’s he doing?

I like Kyle Williams and wish he would have stayed. He apparently learned that he did not like the job as much as he expected. That happens and it is understandable.
What i do not like is him dropping the team like a hot potato just prior to the bowl game, unless there is some kind of family emergency.
He could have fulfilled his role, coached the game and retired. It would have extended his commitment by a few days. It does seem a bit like he quit on the team. .

re: Lacy 2 mil per, ole miss @1.8

It depends on whether we are committed to a major investment in our OL in the portal. Unless we are willing to buy some talent in the trenches, it makes no sense to waste 2 mil on a RB.

re: Carius Curne to the portal

This was a true freshman and he was being asked to play out of position against some very good DLs. AND, all he had for an OL coach was Brad Davis.
I cannot tell much about what kind of talent this kid might have been at the right position, with decent coaching, a decent scheme and a little experience..
Taking a QB from the portal is like buying a car.
You really have to know the price to compare models.

re: Pavia looks like a prick

Posted by nitwit on 12/13/25 at 6:20 pm to
We could have used that prick this year in BR to play qb.
If there is an opportunity to be offended here, I would to be offended, too.
The LSU student section WAS legendary..
Its still good. ,For two quarters...
There were some moments of brilliance.
But in the end, he was mostly hype and potential and little performance.
