Denbrock was the fortunate recipient of Jayden Daniels’ realization that he had to let go of the ball sooner and trust his receivers. Sloan was the mastermind there, not Denbrock. Denbrock won’t be missed; Daniels will be.

Forgot who that was. :dunno: :dunno:
On August 18, 2011, President Obama issued Executive Order 13583-- Establishing a Coordinated Government-wide Initiative to Promote Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) in the Federal Workforce, which calls for all federal agencies to develop and implement a strategic plan for Diversity and Inclusion. Private corporations were urged to do the same-and many did.

This concept, put into effect as a non-legislative presidential order, peaked in 2021, but companies have quickly grown weary of its effects. The results are that many have or are in the process of abandoning this concept. LINK
Texas A&M ceased theirs last year, and Texas just announced the termination of their DEI department as well.

Do we know the DEI status of the other universities in the SEC?

PAY. Smart learned from Saban how to pay under the table, has more resources than any one for recruiting- and uses them effectively.

He has not played at all, and is not on 3 deep depth chart.

re: Lsu running backs

LSU is loaded with RBs.


1. Josh Williams- walk on success story, dependable back, 100% effort, good pass catching, hard runner, fabulous person but average for SEC, which alone is impressive
2 Kaleb Jackson - great potential, may (or may not) turn out to be great, time will tell
3. Trey Holly-great potential, time will tell
4. Noah Cain- great effort, should may have considered linebacker early on, like Patrick Queen did when he switched from rb to lb
5. Caden Durham- looking forward to great things, maybe not freshman year

Diggs -gone
Emery- late season ACL, which recovery for rb is really 2 years

Loaded with backs does not imply exceptional or experienced backs. LSU returns only 1 back with appreciable carrys. With the portal, if 1 exceptional back becomes available, it would be foolish not to consider him(Judson), especially if he comes from a rival (Ole Miss). It’s guaranteed that Alabama would, and likely will-if LSU doesn’t jump in.

It is hard to recruit the portal when you don’t have any roster spots! Not that many players leaving!


A huge part of successful coaching is roster management. Recruiting success is dictated by whether you fill your team’s needs, not the ranking. LSU has no choice but to get someone-especially in the interior DLine. This year, thus far, there are no Dline signed to use as a bandaid for next year. It’s really hard to win games when you have no interior DLine. There is a strong possibility that 2 of 4 of our already weak DLine players will go into the draft, and maybe a third. Not only do we not have enough DLine players to start, we don’t have reserves or
even bodies to practice. That translates into linebackers getting blocked and Dbacks having to maintain coverage entirely too long.

In short, with poor roster management, your defense will suck- and your coaching career will be short.

Maybe, BK could utilize some of his $10 mil for those necessary bandaids.

It’s amazing that a Gator fan would be laughing at anyone presently, unless, of course, they’re looking at the mirror.
“Processing “ of players will only accelerate with maturing of NIL. When players who were given a chance and subsequently succeeded turn their backs on that team for supposed greener pastures, there will be more “Primetime” reactions to drop players who aren’t developing as quickly as necessary.

In short, this NIL professionalization will lead to less loyalty from players, and subsequently less loyalty from teams. Chasing money as a sole priority will frequently lead to dissatisfaction. While the upper echelon players will profit more financially, this mercenary style will come at a personal cost. And, the slower to develop kid will be “processed” more quickly.

Nothing is free; all pay the cost.
You’re completely wrong. We’ve used many and Slap your Mama, a lower salt, gluten free combo, is superb. It’s owned by a small family.

And give them credit. The incredibly woke New Orleans Saints and NFL banned them because these humorless NFL idiots claimed it supported domestic violence. But then, the NFL supported the rioting by BLM.

frick the NFL; buy more Slap your Mama!

Get Kyle Williams for the Tigers in BR.
O thought for sure he had Cam Ackers from MS, who was subsequently “bought” by Jimbo Fisher while he was at FSU. So, he offered Etienne late, whose mom had her feelings hurt.

Same thing happened to the big DT from Houston on signing day that year.
