I just thought he was on 30mg Adderal
Well, Joe did him a favor with the 2 picks late

He and the rest of them can take the rest of the year off
quote:

Ever hear of the "Birkin" bag, a roomy handbag made by luxury leather goods design company Hermes? While taking an Air France flight, Jane Birkin complained that she couldn't get a handbag big enough. The man next to her suggested that she get one with pockets, to which she replied, "Hermes doesn't make one with pockets." The man then declared, "But I am Hermes!" as he was Jean-Louis Dumas, the CEO of Hermes International. He then drew a sketch of a handbag and promised to produce it and name if after her if she agreed. This original prototype handbag he made for her was sold at auction just a few months ago for $10.1 Million.


Now that's a story :lol:
quote:

the injury could force him a bit into that, but I doubt he's planning on going anywhere with the intention of probably not playing in 2026


If he were to consider an arrangement like this, I would think it would be at a school with Kiffin as his QB coach, and a school that has produced 2 Heisman QBs recently that were drafted very early in the 1st round with guaranteed contracts
ND sounds like TX before they joined the SEC

They want to put the ACC teams in their pocket and feed them farts til they're big enough to eat shite

I think the rest of CFB just fired the first shot

Good luck with this Holy War, Domers
quote:

He cant even go through spring practice and I think for a QB transfer thats almost vital.

To expect a QB transfer to just pick things up in August with 4 weeks of practice prior to the season and have any chemistry is a huge assumption.


This could actually favor both sides. Say for instance that he understands his situation and has eligibility to let it heal properly.

Should LSU get Chambliss on appeal for one season, if the price were right to allow Leavitt to recover and learn the offense his first year, this arrangement would be ideal.
quote:

Leavitt's situation is that he's leaving a stable, good culture because there's presumably someone with more money and more talent to put around him.


I believe he is rehabbing a serious injury and trying to do it in the most efficient way

He likely has a $4M a year job depending on it

If he was your brother or son, you would see things differently.

He may not even be in town

Well, the SEC is going to divide up close to a third of the total monies that the playoff purse provides, so yeah, all is right. LOL
quote:

So you think if the roles were reversed LSU would allow it?


Maybe not

But that shouldn’t change the fact that LSU would be the villain, not the coach

Saban clearly stated why he came to LSU and why Kiffin should. And in a matter of days in his first recruiting cycle the evidence is abundant.

Yet not one of those bashing Kiffin has addressed it
Would expect that to turn out even worse than his first appearance playing professionally at LSU. His departure should be mutually agreeable

Hard to find a position for someone who specializes in tackling ball carriers from behind

Lane beat us attacking his position. I feel safe in saying not much effort was made to keep him

re: Fuzzy Zoeller has passed away

I went to ‘98 Masters Tuesday practice round. We followed Fuzzy, Lumpy, and Daly for several holes. On 14, Daly hit his drive 300 yards off the tab of a Diet Coke can.

As Fuzzy left the box to head down the roped off area leading to fairway, Tom Kite got to the box. He hollered at Fuzzy, who turned around and cam back to shake his hand. With only me and a friend standing there next to them, Kite said, “I thought you’d be playing with Tiger today.”

Fuzzy replied, “My people called his people and he said he was playing with friends, so I guess he’ll be playing by himself.” My friend and I looked at each other with mouths wide open. LOL

Tiger later played with O’Meara and graciously took pics with me.
I was told he was part of the PBHS signing ceremony yesterday.

I guess that could be a PWO deal too. Not sure. But LSU was mentioned
quote:

I never said we were great but you gotta admit, when your 90 million dollar coach gets out recruited by a coach on the hottest of seats who won’t be there after a year, that’s pretty embarrassing.


I'm only gonna respond once to you, b/c you don't seem like someone capable of grasping what is going on in the CFB/NIL World rt now

The QB position is going to have an amount you can allot, and while more than any other position, this amount is still finite, if you plan on having a team around him to win championships.

This kid is not probably even starting next year, unless he is your only option and your team is not playing for championships. Not worthy of even backup money on a team trying to make the playoffs.

So you let a SC pay him whatever to bust his chops and get some coaching. If he proves his potential vs good competition, then you spend.

Your team outbidding another for his services now is actually a knock on your program.
He is going to have to learn to trust his defense more, much in the same way Saban had to learn to trust his offense.

He checks 2 of my most important boxes. Mobile QB development and play caller. Head coach does not have to be the play caller, but it doesn't hurt.

Trusting him to be stable enough to be the face of your program is the biggest leap, and he managed that at Ole Miss
All these talking heads with so many opinions, yet not one of them can ask the question of why Kiffin could not coach through the playoffs, yet another LSU employee can?

Ole Miss, Tulane, UNT

2 out of 3 of these schools will be in the playoffs and their regular season coach will be moving on to other jobs

Why can the other 2 schools allow their coaches to complete the season? I mean they are all Div-1 schools that have essentially reached the same level vs their competition.

I think we all know the reason this question won't be asked or answered
quote:

The defense was good but not spectacular.


That defense could win a championship.

Better with Weeks calling it on the field.

It was a shame for them to play so well and lose on 2 busted coverages with the safety out of position (I don't think Haulcy was even on the field for one) vs OK, but I stand by the fact that this team was in the playoffs with just an average offense.
quote:

I don't hate it if he's traded.


Yes, he is only slightly above average, but the problem is we don't have many if any other options that have really shown the ability to be average.
quote:

While ryan clark is a pos, he’s a noisy pos. Savvy move by verge to reach out to him and “ask advice” which helps ensure that when the idiot does start to talk about the hire - it will be positive. That narcisssist probably sits there and feels like he is the reason they went with kiffin or got him so of course it’s a great hire - because ryan made it happen!

Checkmate verge - well done.


Look at the brain on shotput :lol:

I wondered while scanning this thread if anybody could appreciate that

So many good posters, or so I thought, that showed themselves to not be directly connected to this program in the last 30 years. Never realized the value we got from Verge.
'
He actually divulged more than I would have expected, and had to bite his tongue a couple of times.
No

He's talking about his coach at ASU, Dillingham
How hard will it be to convince this kid to come to BR after Burrow and Daniels, when Kiffin is now the head coach? :lol:

Might even get him at a discount, considering what he stands to gain in the draft
