re: Hudson expected to flip to Nebraska
Posted by NotaStarGazer on 6/6/26 at 6:43 pm to WarBoudin
Nothing wrong with the post...not getting too emotional myself over a TE that there seem to be quite a few every year. The sentence that made me :rotflmao: was
Oh, my God, his recruiting is completely over for all teams. Verbal pledges are flat out set in concrete. :rolleyes:
BTW, I am disappointed so far that LSU has a ton of visitors each week and for some reason only have 4 verbals (once again not set in concrete 6 months before NSD, but still). Seems like Kiffin is going to continue to go mostly the transfer portal route which actually might be the smart path.

re: Best Hype Video of all time - 2019-2020 season NC game

The Muhammad Ali one flat out sucked! Too long with too much boxing metaphor. The Bonstonker videos indeed were good with lots of highlights. However, I found it amusing that one of the highlights was Brad Wing fake punt that didn't even result in a TD because it was called back due to that weak "taunting' penalty.

Obviously had a bunch of highlights which of course the The Rock video didn't have so that is a +. However, The Rock video is poetic in the narration and closeups of players, the bus, etc. I love your favorite for a highlight reel but for a HYPE video, I'll take the one I linked to 10 out of 10 times.

Great narrative...great narrator...good music...players highlighted...inspiring, etc. Orgeron called in a favor with his buddy The Rock with their friendship forged when Orgeron was an asst coach at Miami and Dwayne Johnson was playing for "the U".

The only 3 that would surprise me are 1) what you mentioned...Woodland more than Pickett. And the other two surprises would be S Green the DT and Strey the OT being the 6th and 7th highest paid players. Those guys aren't even supposed to be starters here.

Yeah, Weston Davis looked horrible to be sure. Let's hope that he really has decent potential that the fired OL coach couldn't unlock. That is going to fascinating to see what a guy like Davis does at LSU under a new OL coach and also the other OL that left and went to various SEC schools...are they going to look better. I'm talking Adams...Echols...Curne if he can stay out of trouble, etc.

I'm NOT vouching for those numbers but they are running quite the con if not accurate. There are numbers down to a single dollar AND they should be darn close because they match up pretty darn well with the rumors/gossip, and I believe Kiffin himself has confirmed LSU spent over $40 million in NIL this season. So pooh pooh it all you want...it is God damn close IMO IF not 100% accurate.

The odds of Brown or Anderson being busts are supposedly slim, but yeah, those guys haven't made one single tackle in college and yet they are above D J Pickett who has already proven himself a stud at one of the most important positions in college football...CB. But then again, you see it in the NFL draft where they many times overpay on "potential" and don't reward the guys enough who have proven themselves over the years.
re: How hot is Jay Johnson’s seat?
Posted by NotaStarGazer on 5/22/26 at 9:41 pm to ThadCastle2010
His seat is not even warm yet. HOWEVER, if he has another crappy season like this hideous display, it will be bunson burner time. IF what one poster gave a couple of weeks ago is his accurate SEC record, it ain't that great...a DECENT amount above .500. What makes him look like Casey Stengel is his 6-1 Omaha record. But he was a line drive away last year against Florida from not even going further in the CWS if not for an amazing catch by Pearson I believe in left field.

Well, Berry has some liabilities to work on...ball security and finding holes better. Weeks APPEARS underpaid but then again, I want to see the guy stay on the field. Hurt in the Baylor bowl game...hurt in the Ole Miss game. Doesn't matter how good you are if you can't stay on the football field.
Lane Kiffin professional comment AND the LSU football NIL starters chart
Posted by NotaStarGazer on 5/22/26 at 9:26 pm
The pay chart is contained in an article where Lane Kiffin says that NIL has made discipline a lot easier. Since obviously players are professional now, they will be treated like professionals...don't follow rules or miss meetings, guess what...you will be fined. :cheers: Anyway, here is the starting player by player pay chart which personally I believe because it looks very reasonable and matches a lot of the rumors/gossip.

I like the stat showing his SEC record prior to this down year.
Can someone share that one again?
Using a mixed sports metaphor, this is a layup 77-69 career in the SEC using other poster's numbers. 9-18 this year so that means before this season he was 68-51. That's good but not unbelievably good. Now his career SEC regular season record is just decent. What has earned Johnson "money in the bank" for this hideous season is him being 6-1 in Omaha with 2 NC at LSU.
re: Abdi Bashir Commits to LSU!!!
Posted by NotaStarGazer on 5/8/26 at 2:24 pm to The Pirate King
Probably need to watch {admittedly} highlights before commenting. 1) he had a great block in one sequence, stole the ball in a couple more, etc 2) he can create his own shot which LSU has had trouble with for years 3) many of his 3's are well behind the line (NBA 3's). I'm not sure using a football metaphor of "spiking the ball" without even watching the long video of him serves you well. And this guy wasn't on the LSU team last season. One of the worst arguments EVER made is trying to compare one guy against players that LSU had last season...100% irrelevant!

re: Dobson fonged to A&M on Rivals
Posted by NotaStarGazer on 5/4/26 at 6:52 pm to Tiger2022
This isn't sour grapes because I have said this for years about these "crystal ball" guys...they don't know shite. I especially say that about Wiltfong because if he was right about Colin Simmons for months and months he would be starting his 3rd year for LSU football. Did he ultimately get CS correct to Texas...yeah, at the relatively last minute. I believe he flips more than any guy I have seen on his predictions. Maybe the players flip a lot also before signing...assuming that is true, then his or anyone's predictions 7 months out are worthless. Even commitments are worthless at this point.
re: As several of us said, the OL wasn't the only LOS unit issue
Posted by NotaStarGazer on 4/25/26 at 8:19 pm to plance
We all need to keep track of all the OL transfers who went to big schools. How will Echols do at A&M? How will Curne do at Ole Miss? How about Adams at A&M? How about Mubenga at Nebraska? How about Chester at Miss State? This will tell us a lot about how much of it was lack of talent and how much of it was hideous OL coaching.

I think you meant Gooden but we'll call that a typo. :lol: But you are flat out wrong on Reliford. Don't believe my opinion? How about Lane Kiffin? He specifically said during an after practice media session what a great loss that was when he got hurt in spring practice this year. I'll take my opinion and Lane Kiffin's over yours with all due respect.

That isn't saying much. And if Reliford had been healthy, he would have been the best DL. Unfortunately, he has been at LSU for 2 years and has been injured the vast majority of the time.
re: Aaron Anderson, barrion brown, Harold Perkins and Nuss
Posted by NotaStarGazer on 4/25/26 at 7:54 pm to Cd104
Blame Kelly for a lot of things but your post was grossly exaggerated as to the worth of Perkins for example. And I don't remember anyone ever saying Anderson was a 1st or 2nd round guy.
re: Cant believe Aaron Anderson left an extra year on the table to go undrafted
Posted by NotaStarGazer on 4/25/26 at 7:09 pm to lsunutinno
I THINK that the main issue is if you hired an agent. That technically puts you in the "professional" category but these days, obviously all college players are professional these days BEFORE the draft with NIL.
