I know Eric Wolford has only been here a few months but man he is so bad at recruiting. We have 1 OL commit, that is not how championship programs are built. A kid just just chose to commit to Georgia who already has 6 OT commits over us and we have 0 OT commits
Well first we have 2 OL commits (Terrance Smith #5 OT and Siale OT). They are also pushing for Kelsey Adams who has a predicted flip from UGA to LSU.
They only have 16 commits total and 2 OL so it's certainly being addressed comparatively. As for portal vs HS, historically true FR rarely start at OL. The portal OL adds include a lot of multiple eligibility year players with starting P4 experience.
Bottom line, I think the staff has a pretty solid grasp of what they're doing.

According to some of the scouting services he's a comp to UGAs Jalen Carter. In other words, the kid is a game wrecker type player that is worth the money. We'll see, but sure seems like he may be worth breaking the bank.

If they can get past Belgium without Balogan then they should have a surge of momentum with him back for the next round.

re: Hunt with a breakdown of LSU projected production and win totals

Is there anything to suggest that returning production is a strong indicator of production? That seems a heavy stretch especially in the year of the portal.
Phil Steele used to put out a returning production report and it was a good indicator of success. Not perfect by any means. I think from listening to Hunt this one factors overall experience and production inluding transfers. If so, it is a difficlt one to define because players may come from a weaker conference and skew metrics.
It does seem that a majority of our transfers are from P4 schools so hopefully it's a good indicator.

Agree because of so much change in recruiting. I think we have the right staff at the right time and their philosophy in recruiting
Ruffino and Nagy were talking about Jones and said there was a lot of film where Jones bailed out Dobson. He may not be the pure athlete that Dobson is plus Dobson is a CB, but apparently Jones is one the coaches think is better than his ranking and he's certainly not low as the #9 composite safety.

He think we only win 8 games? How the heck does this “guy” still have a job! Thats outrageous rage bate!
No, he stated that the report indicated that despite productivity projections being high LSU was projected at 8.5 wins and every top team not named UGA was in the same range. Apparently I wasn't clear enough, but that's why I also posted the video. It's due to parity among the top teams. Hunt seemed very optomistic that LSU will exceed that.
When only 1 team sits above that water line you look at other variables, like coaching, schedule, continuity of players. We are in good shape on the 1st 2 metrics and the last remains to be seen.
Hunt with a breakdown of LSU projected production and win totals
Posted by BayouCowboy on 6/29/26 at 9:52 am
Caveat everything with "on paper" but also add that these figures don't account for coaching staff which I think is one of the best in CFB. There are some very interesting takeaways. Returning offensive production, including projected starter production put the offense at 22nd.
Defensive production was 2nd nationally.
Hunt notes that projected win total is 8.5 which seems off until you realize that only UGA is as high as 9 and the next top 9 are between 7-9 due to the number of toss up games.
Either way, if we have the #22 offense and 2nd defense, I think LSU is going to far exceed that win total and have a run at the SEC and playoffs.

Picking ND is fine. His choice.

Doing it to the fans in your home state is a true dick move though. Good riddance!

Auburn will have Walter Mathis, DaShawn Womack and Xavier Atkins all starting for them this year most likely. Similarly, ATM’s left side of their OL being held down by Tyree Adams and Coen Echols is actually hilarious.
Echols and Adams are good players that received bad coaching and played under a bad scheme.
Watch Weston Davis suddenly look like a competent RT this season.

Wolford seems to like them athletic and fast, which is exactly what Simien offers. I have not seen him go after many mammoths like in the CLM days.
We just got commits from a 6'7 IOL Terrance Smith and 6'6 360lb Siale at OT. Those are big humans.
While the Bama OL coach:

Eric Wolford’s Preference for Big Offensive Linemen
Eric Wolford, the University of Kentucky offensive line coach, is well known for his strong preference for big, physical offensive linemen. He has openly stated that “bigger the better” when it comes to offensive line talent, within reason yea-alabama.com. This philosophy has shaped both his recruiting approach and his coaching style.
Recruiting Focus
Wolford’s recruiting strategy emphasizes size, strength, and toughness. He has landed some of the nation’s top-rated offensive linemen, many of whom are large in stature.

Once again, the highest rated in-state guys are the hardest to keep in state.
This whole idea of the advantage we have with loaded in-state talent and no competition is a myth. It's just as difficult for us to sign these guys as it is for other schools with in-state competition.
Go back and watch his recruitment. LSU never pushed really hard for Simien. He's not the beheameth type OL that Wolford likes. That's not saying he won't be good, but there was no interest in overpaying for him. Royal can be a difference maker so he's a different story, but I don't see where LSU valued Simien that way.

This literally disqualifies you from discussing HS football recruits. Verified 4.5 40s from over 6 foot HS WRs are way more rare than you think. Hell legit 4.5s from any HS player is way more rare than you think.
No kidding. A verified 4.51 for a HS Jr is likely going to test in the 4.4 range once properly trained at the CFB level and especially when the NFL or team combine comes around.

We need Coach O to get momma on board. That's supposed to be his specialty.
I'll add what I heard from one of the recruiting site guys, but don't remember who. He said Simien is a bit shorter than his listed height. Closer to 6'2. Wolford likes tall OL, even OG.
I don't think we are going to overpay for him. Maybe he turns out like Kardell Thomas who was much shorter than listed and was starting to slip a bit in recruiting even before the injury. Then again, he could be a beast. Hard to tell with OL.
