True. If Kiffin believes in those backups, I am with him. I do not know the standing of their starters but do believe some will test the water, agreement or not. But I also am not expecting any mass migration from Ole Miss to LSU. We will see soon enough how many enter portal.
You are correct. No matter the number that end up transferring to play for Coach Kiffin, it will not be enough for some of the expectations.
We still have at minimum 15 more on offense alone to go. QB, RB, WR, Oline. Added two more on D already today plus more coming on D . I expect 30-35 total when dust clears plus potential HS signees.

Which goes to my question/point. They are not for sure until the portal closes and they can no longer enter the portal.

Portal Question

Posted by ValleyTNTIGER on 1/7/26 at 8:38 pm
Since we now understand players can enter portal , then remove themselves by signing with their current school ( D Williams for example), but then re-enter the portal to transfer (supposedly)

When in fact can we say a player is for sure on the roster for spring? 1) they are not in the portal when it closes, correct? Also, once someone agrees to stay removing the portal tag?

I will be glad when the portal closes and we can confirm who is a TIGER !!

Great to hear. I am very excited to hear stories like this. What has been missing has been hard work towards individual improvement and team goals. Sure the team wanted to complete and win but just seemed like too many did not take it to conclusion of working hard enough for it. Too many holes on offense play to make it feel like they wanted it bad enough. Many fine individuals I am sure but product on the field looked lost. I blame the coaches more than players. They let it happen. Players like your son will only make this team better.

Certainly hope so.



It’s not over , until it’s over .

And they sign
the dotted line.
Looking for commitments, agreements to terms Friday. Signing when they visit in next few weeks.
Or two. You need at least 4 backs in This offense and SEC play.
Ohio state has an excellent program and team. But Miami took it to them. Even more so than what Indiana did last month.

We shall see who is top 5 teams, but all the games without the charity teams involved have been played very well. I think OSU got out played and out coached last night. Miami is on a roll right now. And will give the remaining SEC team a true test next weekend.
I want the rest of the country to notice the level of refereeing in SEC. Perhaps national news might nudge them toward improvement, but will not hold my breath.
So far the games have been done well by the other league refs. All have not called every little deal.
Research him on your own. There is a reason Saban brought him to Alabama. Per Saban he was brought it to toughen up and improve the shoddy Alabama OL which he did. Look at his recruiting. He has been considered a top recruiter. Saban still thinks highly of him after working with him two years at Alabama. Sour grape fans say a lot of things when they are pissed. Ole Miss fans think they don’t need Kiffin or his coaches either.
Hardly a football player. Every chance he had this year, he mostly screwed it up.

I hope he can sell something

Weak coaching has created a weak team

Cannot score from 6 inches

Score from 3 by finally going under center.

Whole offense needs to go other than those tough enough to play big boy football.
See the other post on this. Good explanation on why this is a good sign toward improving the OL.
Thanks for that. That explanation makes sense to me. Being told you are wanted but are offered lesser amount until you improve would make one look around. And not being offered to come back would definitely do it.

And I have no problem with it. There was something seriously off with the offense. These guys ,unfortunately for them, are from that side of team and so were part of the problem. Root cause of team issue or not, they need to be seriously looked at and evaluated and that was done . This is the result.

9-9 best guess

Few injuries and get hot 11-7

Slump/injuries 6-12
Had this conversation about transfer QBs with my wife today. We need two guys that Lane believes can take the wheel and lead right now. Let them compete for starter 1 and backup. But bring one if not two more to develop for future and or emergency. Numbers obviously depend on whether MVB stays - and I doubt Coach Kiffin thinks of him as 1 or 2 but rather the #3 if he can swing it. Just don’t know if MVB would stay for that.

To OP: good job with starting this. I think you are more correct than wrong anywhere. We need starters and depth. Hopefully many want to come play for Lane.
