Lane is going all in on OLE MISS this season. He is putting all the chips on the table. Their defensive line is going to be scary good Nolen, Umanmielen, and Baron plus recruits. When they spent the bucks to get Nolen from TAM it was a statement that they were serious about their run for the title...

Portal Question?

Posted by TigerPlate on 4/23/24 at 11:13 am
Curious to know how this works. If you enter the portal, do you immediately loose your benefits ie. scholarship, housing, medical, meals and all the other things that go along with being a member of the team. Also do most players entering the portal already have a plan in mind, that is have they be...
Chance to play on an SEC team and get major viewing exposure. Beaux known as top Defensive line coach In contention for championship on team with upward potential. Guess the only thing is if he is only looking for $$$ then bidding war makes for an uneven playing field. These guys get lower leg in...

What I vividly remember about Edwin was when the press asked him why the only people getting pardoned from prison were the ones using his brother Marion as legal counsel. Edwins's response was that " My brother Marion is a hell of a good lawyer." LOL...

re: Kyron Drones Rumors?

This sounds like a fairy tale. I doubt that a million dollars for a backup is in the offing. however, that million dollars if it truly exists could be well spent getting some defensive talent which is now and has been LSU Achilles Heel! ...
We certainly have bigger fish to fry. Staggering inflation, national debt, weak foreign policy, powerful military with commander in chief who is incapable of using it effectively. Crazy radical energy policy totally unrealistic. Threats of terrorism from within and threats from enemies on the worl...

Receiver U!! All you got to do is look at who LSU has put in the NFL at that spot and see why this kid is smart enough to see how his future can be shaped at LSU. Malick, BT Jr, JD all first round $$$. Also not only that but he got a talented QB to deliver the ball as well as an O line to give th...

Cliches abound Bird in the hand worth two in the Bush LSU doesn't want to get left at the altar. Simone still a good get but who knows what he will do. think his NIL options with LSU somewhat diminished now. So if he got the want to and fire in the belly to be a Tiger great if not LSU has moved o...
I am really impressed with the physicality of this women's basketball team. I am a newby to the sport but I get vibes from the action almost like watching football. These girls really play with a lot of intensity and heart. I keep hearing the announcers saying the bench is thin and now I know why yo...

I never get tired of Lyn Rollins. Has been a mainstay for 50 years. I like the local color. Some may think it Hokey and maybe it is but I do not find it offensive. I think he is very baseball savvy and contributes lot of little know factoids to the conversation. I even like his Lyn'isms. I agree Ben...
Dang this post is top shelf. All the information is right there for the reader. Thanks for sharing. :dude:...

Never Trumpers going to cast their vote for Biden? I think not. They may hold their nose as they cast the vote for Trump but they not going to vote for the Depends candidate. Kind of reminds me of the choice between David Duke and Edwin Edwards. The lesser of two evils. I think it is going to be li...

Saban Redux!

Posted by TigerPlate on 3/2/24 at 8:41 am
Saban got his own office at Bama. He is meeting with the defensive coordinator to "advises on matters" So how do you think that is going to work out for DeBoer. I think it would be pretty hard for him to tell Saban to butt out of my business. Oh by the way where exactly is Coach O's office at LSU? ...
I am sure there is a trial attorney out there that can make a case for some $$$. Or maybe a WOKE DA get the coach on attempted murder trying to choke the guy out. You can never tell what the legal system holds for you in the home of the free....

News Reporting? or News Editorials?

Posted by TigerPlate on 3/1/24 at 10:39 am
Fewer and fewer people believe what they hear and read. Because for the most part it is just blatant lies. I would prefer to get the facts without the writer trying to influence my opinion by using his opinion as fact. I lament that those days are long gone. Unfortunately there are still those Ameri...
Lot of high-level discussions about championship playoff structure. Have even heard possibility of 14 teams. I know I am being a dinosaur, but I liked the way that the rivalry games were most important. The new setup to me seems to lessen the importance of the season matchup. Afraid they are going t...

re: 100K fine to Kentucky!

Posted by TigerPlate on 2/23/24 at 1:27 pm
Well gee I just did not know fans would have to sit patiently after the game is over for the opposing team to take a victory lap or talk to press or whatever else needs to be done. So how exactly do you force paying fans to not cross the court to head for the exit and their vehicles once the game is...

100K fine to Kentucky!

Posted by TigerPlate on 2/23/24 at 8:07 am
[quote]LSU was fined $100K by the SEC because of fans storming the court. According to a press release by the conference, financial penalties are imposed for violations in all sports and range from $100K for a first offense, $250K for a second offense and $500k for a third and subsequent offenses. I...
